Real Estate Development & Commercial Real Estate in Maple Ridge

Development land, rezoning and subdivision, project marketing and commercial property in Maple Ridge, Pitt Meadows and the Fraser Valley — from a brokerage owned by the same family since 1982.

Hands-On Development Experience

Jim Isherwood has been licensed in British Columbia real estate since 1969 and has owned Royal LePage Brookside Realty since 1982. Beyond brokerage, companies he has been an owner/director of have held development land in Maple Ridge directly. That work has included rezoning and subdivision applications, coordinating architects, engineers, geotechnical and civil consultants, and marketing finished development opportunities and new-project homes.

Brookside is a real estate brokerage, not a builder. The project records below state each company's role separately — owner, developer, seller or listing brokerage — so that nothing implies construction work Brookside did not perform.

Documented examples span decades: Centro’s 2007 project-marketing proposal; the 2010 appraisal and later rezoning and building-permit-stage correspondence for 23553 Larch Avenue; Ruxton Village’s 2016 local sales operation; and Quartz and Kanaka Hill’s 2017 sublisting records. Together with the ownership and rezoning history at 23711 132 Avenue and today’s development-land brokerage at 24392 104 Avenue, these records show distinct experience in development, subdivision, project marketing and project sales—not a claim that Brookside developed or primarily marketed every project.

Maple Ridge Development & Project History

Quartz Townhomes at 13245 236 Street is documented by a signed agreement effective August 17, 2017: Brookside was Sublisting Agent, Jim Isherwood and Chad August were Sublisting Licensee, rareEarth Project Marketing Ltd. was Listing Agent, and Quarry Rock Developments (234) Inc. was developer. Brookside’s agreed work included purchaser solicitation, offers and follow-up, Presentation Centre staffing, disclosures and sales reporting—not the developer or primary marketing-agency role.

Contemporaneous correspondence documents Kanaka Hill’s sublisting and purchaser-support work, including Nicole and Chad’s team coordinating walk-throughs; the Kanaka agreement attachment is unavailable. At Ruxton Village, Brookside handled local project sales while rareEarth was credited with Sales and Marketing and Haney Developments Limited Partnership was developer/vendor. No Ruxton sublisting contract has been recovered.

Centro’s 32-unit project-marketing proposal describes Jim’s broker/project experience and Nicole Jackson’s on-site sales and financial/administrative responsibilities. 23553 Larch Avenue’s appraisal and correspondence document a proposed 30-lot Silver Valley site and rezoning, subdivision and permit-submission-stage involvement—not proof of permits issued or completed construction.

These are selected, documented records rather than a complete list. See the full Projects & Sales History for more of Brookside's development marketing and original-sales record, or learn about Jim and Nicole Isherwood.
