Greater Victoria and the surrounding region are in the midst of an acceleration of real estate activity and buyers are looking for a wider range of local and non-local investment options. EXPO2017 is a major opportunity for investors in our region to discover the tools, resources, people and organizations that are available to meet their real estate investment goals. We project that EXPO2017 will have 80 exhibits, a theatre for keynote speakers and a consultation area for one-on-one meetings with clients. This one day event will attract about 1,500 attendees seeking investment advice, mortgage arrangements, real estate properties, and lifestyle-oriented services.
