Trust, Confidence, and Community

The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board empowers over 5,000 REALTORS® to serve communities with confidence and professionalism.

Fraser Valley REALTORS® live and work in communities we serve: Surrey, Langley, White Rock, North Delta, Abbotsford, and Mission. For more than 100 years, we have supported members with the tools, education, and guidance they need to uphold strong ethical standards and deliver trusted service to the home buying and selling public.

Our REALTORS® are deeply rooted in their communities, committed to ensuring individuals and families can be confident in one of life’s most important decisions. In turn, the FVREB continues to advance the profession and foster a real estate environment built on trust, professionalism, and innovation.

Our Mission

Our Vision

Trusted and engaged REALTORS®, valued for their professionalism, respected by the communities they serve, and supported by a resilient, forward-thinking association.

From the Chair

Tore Jacobsen
Chair of the FVREB

From our earliest days, the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board has championed professionalism, integrity, and service to the public. As REALTORS® we are more than market experts—we are trusted advisors who guide individuals and families through some of life’s most meaningful decisions. We know the neighbourhoods we serve, understand local economies, and listen to the needs of our clients.

Our work touches every stage of life: first homes, growing families, new investments, and retirement plans. Together, REALTORS® help build strong, informed communities. And our commitment to responsible service continues to earn the confidence of buyers, sellers, and residents across the Fraser Valley.

From the CEO

Baldev Gill
CEO of the FVREB

Strong governance has always been the backbone of this organization. As a member-led association, we are accountable to our REALTORS®, to the communities in which we live and work, and to the public we serve. We hold ourselves to clear ethical standards, transparent decision-making, and policies that protect both consumers and our profession.

Innovation is also part of our identity—from pioneering MLS systems to modern digital and AI tools that foster trust and elevate capabilities. We actively collaborate with governments, industry partners, and researchers because real estate is part of a larger housing ecosystem. Our goal is to help shape communities that are resilient, informed, and accessible for all.
