About Sean Phillips, REALTOR®

Sean Phillips is a REALTOR® with Coldwell Banker Executives Realty in Vernon, BC, licensed to trade in real estate anywhere in British Columbia. He was first licensed on 4 July 2022 and has earned Top Producer recognition.

He lives full-time in Okanagan Landing, so the lake, the launch at Paddlewheel Park and the traffic on Okanagan Landing Road on a July Saturday are part of his daily life, not a listing description.

From commercial to lifestyle real estate

Sean started his real estate career in commercial property. He moved into lifestyle real estate after falling in love with the Okanagan, and he believes the house is only part of the decision: the lake, the neighbours, the seasons and how you want to spend your weekends matter just as much. That is why this site spends as much time on docks, schools and bylaws as it does on prices.

Why a whole site for one complex?

Because nobody else had written it down. Silverton on the Lake is small, rarely for sale and poorly described online: portals call it an apartment building, and basic facts such as the slip size and year built differ from source to source. Buyers deserve a single, honest reference that says what's known, what isn't, and where each fact comes from. Where something can only be confirmed from the strata's documents, the site says so instead of guessing.

A technology background

Sean brings a 40-year background in technology to real estate. It shows up in the tools on this site: the cost-of-ownership calculator with BC transfer tax and the first-time buyer exemption, the rent vs buy comparison and the net proceeds estimator.

What Sean does for Silverton buyers and sellers

• Buyers: saved searches for 7701 and nearby waterfront, a careful read of the Form B, minutes, depreciation report and insurance certificate, and straight advice on dock tenure, SVT and rental rules.
• Sellers: a written opinion of value based on real comparable sales, preparation of the documents buyers will ask for, and marketing across his network of Okanagan sites.
