Surrey is home to one of the largest Chinese-Canadian communities in the Lower Mainland. Families across Newton, Fleetwood, Whalley, and South Surrey speak Mandarin or Cantonese at home, and when the decision is a house — the biggest financial commitment most people ever make — they want a REALTOR® who works in that same language. AG. Song does. Service runs in Mandarin (普通话), Cantonese (廣東話), and English, and it is the same full service in each: contract review, negotiation, market explanation, and the fine print of a BC purchase, all in the language you think in.
AG. Song is a Mandarin- and Cantonese-speaking REALTOR® with Pacific Evergreen Realty Ltd., serving Chinese-speaking buyers, sellers, and investors across Surrey, White Rock, Langley, and the wider Fraser Valley, as well as Richmond, Vancouver, Burnaby, and Coquitlam in Greater Vancouver. If your search term is "Chinese realtor Surrey," "Mandarin-speaking realtor Vancouver," or "Cantonese-speaking realtor Richmond," the person on the other end of the phone answers in that language and knows those specific markets — Richmond's condo and detached segments read very differently from South Surrey acreage or a Fleetwood townhome near the coming SkyTrain.
For buyers arriving from Mainland China, Hong Kong, or Taiwan, the BC process has steps that rarely have an equivalent back home. AG. Song walks through each one before you sign anything: the three-business-day home buyer rescission period, the Property Transfer Tax and the first-time and newly-built exemptions, mortgage qualification under the federal stress test, strata bylaws and depreciation reports on condos and townhomes, and the rule that your deposit is held in trust by the brokerage — Pacific Evergreen Realty Ltd. — not by the REALTOR® personally. Nothing about the contract should be a surprise, and in a second language that matters even more.
The work spans both residential and commercial. On the residential side AG. Song represents first-time buyers, families moving up, and owners selling a home they have held for decades. On the commercial side — retail units, office space, and industrial flex in corridors like Scott Road, King George Boulevard, and Campbell Heights — AG. Song represents owner-occupiers and investors, including buyers who cannot purchase residential property under the current federal rules but can still acquire commercial. Whether you are buying a condo in Surrey, listing a family home in Newton, or comparing a strata retail unit against a residential rental, the analysis is done directly with you, not handed to a translator.

Many Chinese-Canadian real estate decisions involve more than one generation and sometimes more than one country — parents, adult children, and a family advisor still overseas, all weighing in. AG. Song is used to running those conversations across a table or across a time zone, keeping every family member on the same page in Mandarin or Cantonese. For current benchmark prices and the month-by-month trend across Surrey, Langley, and Metro Vancouver, see market trends; the numbers there are drawn from the FVREB and Greater Vancouver REALTORS® monthly reports and dated to their source.
