We are wanting to purchase a home, fairly valued at not more than $800,000, with a sunny back yard in a quiet area of Qualicum or Parksville not more than 1 km. from the ocean. We presently own a 1500 sq. ft. Patio home, fairly valued at $590,000 on it's own lot in the Oceanside development of the Eaglecrest area of Qualicum Beach that we could arrange as a trade with someone wanting to downsize. We are not interested in selling our existing home unless we have contracted to replace it with an alternate home in this area. REALTOR's NOTE: Please contact us only if you are aware of a property, not presently on MLS, VIREB, etc, that may meet our needs. Email us or phone 250-752-0955. Thanks in advance for your consideration.
