DeCourcy Island Real Estate Market
A small island with an unusually strange history.DeCourcy Island real estate market activity is limited to a handful of properties on a small boat access island, which makes the available listings more informative than any average could be.
DeCourcy Island Real Estate Market Overview
DeCourcy lies south of Gabriola among the smaller islands in Pylades Channel. It is best known as the base of Brother Twelve's colony in the nineteen twenties, an episode that remains one of the odder chapters in this province's history.
What is there now is a small number of properties, largely recreational, reached by private boat. There is a marine park at one end and no services to speak of anywhere on it.
Access and moorage carry the value. How you reach the property and where you keep the boat matter more than the building. On an island this small those questions come first.

Questions About These Numbers
Yes, and it is essential here. Property on DeCourcy appears very seldom.
By private boat. There is no ferry and no scheduled service of any kind.
A cult leader who established a colony on the island in the nineteen twenties. It ended badly and it remains part of the island's story.
Effectively none. Power, water and waste are handled on each property and are the first things to assess.
An island this small has no useful average. Recent sales here and on the neighbouring islands, along with your access and moorage, are what set it. I don't guess your home's value. I prove it using actual market value and real market movement so you can protect your equity and move forward with confidence.
