460 Realty

At 460 Realty and 460 Property Management, we’ve got a whole new way of thinking about the real estate business. Our breakthrough strategy – using new methods and very old principles – combines young energy and technology with an open and honest approach to add more value to your home in every way.

We understand island culture because we live here too. (That’s where we got our name: this island is 460 kilometres long.) As locals, we know and love this place from one end to the other. This connects us closely to the community, which in turn gives us more power to bring value to every relationship. It’s good to be home.

460 Realty

It’s been a long time since a new and dynamic brokerage model emerged in Canada, and we felt that now was the perfect time. Through close community connections and a team dynamic you won’t find elsewhere, we give our clients the best service in the industry – and empower them to make the absolute best decisions for themselves and their families.

We believe in community – that’s what real estate is about. We’ve reflected that belief in the culture of our business: 460 Realty is co-owned by the licensees and employees who work with us. It encourages every one of us at 460 Realty to continually go the distance for each other, for our clients, and for the home we all love.

460 Property Management

At 460 Property Management, we treat every investment property we manage as if it were our own – with painstaking attention to detail, and the utmost professionalism.

Good property management helps to maximize the return on your real estate investment and minimize the risk. Our managers know this community inside and out; every one of them has years of experience on Vancouver Island, and extensive experience negotiating every facet of property management. This is an important investment for you. Every detail, every little action, helps to protect that investment. And the details are what we do best.

Randy Forbes, Co-Founder

Randy brings an impressive 37 years of real estate experience to 460 Realty. Over the span of his career, Randy has established himself as a well-known and respected authority in the real estate industry, someone to whom his peers continually come for guidance. Randy built a thriving business as general manager of an independent brokerage servicing Vancouver Island and B.C.’s Sunshine Coast. Under Randy’s advisement, that brokerage expanded from one office to 12, and from 33 salespeople to 250. A pillar of the real estate community, Randy has held positions as director of the Vancouver Island Real Estate Board (VIREB) and the British Columbia Real Estate Association (BCREA). Today, he serves as a director of the Board for the BC Real Estate Errors and Omissions Insurance Corporation (REEOIC). All of these accolades aside, Randy’s true value has always been his exceptional ability to listen, solve problems and motivate the good people he surrounds himself with.

He’s garnered a solid reputation for delivering exceptional results in every major project type, including complex commercial projects and residential, mixed-use, and assisted-living projects and communities.

He was resolved to return to Vancouver Island. David is a natural leader, committed to bringing out the best in everyone who surrounds him. He is a firm believer in empowering the best to succeed for the team, and he has seen this principle work time and again.
