Annex Real Estate Group

Buying or selling on Central Vancouver Island has many moving parts, and one wrong call on price, financing, or a property's condition can cost you real money. We're Annex Real Estate Group, a team co-founded by Chase Salisbury and Jessica Venables, and we help buyers, sellers, and investors in Nanaimo, Parksville, Qualicum Beach, and the surrounding communities make those decisions with clear numbers and honest advice.

Our experience goes beyond the transaction. Chase has been licensed since 2022. Before that, he worked at a mortgage brokerage, so he knows how lending works from the inside. He bought his first investment property, a five-plex, at 23 and has renovated nine doors over the past 10 years, from full gut renovations to moving houses onto new lots. When we walk through a home with you, we look past the finishes to suite potential, renovation costs, and long-term value.

What every client gets with us:

- Premium listing marketing: professional photography, video, drone, and targeted paid social media ads on every listing. Our goal is to get your home in front of as many buyers as possible so it has the best chance of selling.
- Investment and renovation analysis: rental income, suite potential, and renovation return for buyers and investors, at no cost.
- Pre-listing preparation: access to our trusted contractor network and guidance on getting your home market-ready.
- Lender introductions: direct connections to experienced mortgage professionals so your financing is sorted early.

We especially enjoy working with move-up buyers who are selling one home and buying their next, along with downsizers, seniors, first-time buyers, and people relocating to the Island.

If you're just starting to think about a move, reach out. We're happy to answer your questions, and there's no pressure to commit to anything.
