Victoria and the Westshore · 48.45° N, 123.50° W

I look at a home two ways: how it's built and how it shows.

I'm Iain MacNaughton, a REALTOR® with The Wensley Group at Macdonald Realty. I trained as a civil engineer and worked in real estate marketing, and I help people buy and sell across Greater Victoria with a focus on the Westshore.

About

An engineer's training and a designer's eye

I was born in Ontario and have called the West Coast home for the last decade. I studied civil engineering and worked in that field before moving west.

Since arriving in BC I've focused more on design, and I worked on the marketing side of real estate. That mix gives me a useful read on a property, and I enjoy sharing it with the people I work with.

How it's built

On a walkthrough I pay attention to the practical things: the site, the structure, and how a home has been looked after. That doesn't replace a home inspection. It does help you ask better questions before you write an offer.

How it shows

Design and marketing work taught me what makes a listing stand out. When you're selling, that shapes how we prepare, photograph, and present your home.

Two of us on every sale

I work alongside Paula Wensley as part of The Wensley Group with Macdonald Realty. Two of us for the price of one, there's always someone available to show your home, answer buyers' questions, and keep things moving.

Buying

Find the right place, and know what you're getting

Whether it's a first condo or a move to more space, I'll help you narrow the search, look at each home with a critical eye, and put together an offer you're comfortable with.

Selling

Price it right and present it well

We start with a straight conversation about what your home is worth and what's worth doing before it lists. From there I handle the preparation, marketing, and negotiation.

Where I work

The Westshore, community by community

I work across all of Greater Victoria, but the Westshore is where my family and I call home.

Langford
The busiest centre on the Westshore, with a lot of newer construction: subdivisions, townhomes, and condos. Bear Mountain and Langford Lake are close by.
Colwood
Oceanfront along Esquimalt Lagoon, Royal Roads University and Hatley Castle, and new neighbourhoods at Royal Bay beside established family streets.
View Royal
Sits between Victoria and the rest of the Westshore, so the trip into town is short. Thetis Lake and the Galloping Goose Trail are right there.
Metchosin
Rural and quiet. Acreages, farms, and hobby properties, with Witty's Lagoon on the coast.
Highlands
Large forested lots and very little development, next to Gowlland Tod and Mount Work parks.
Sooke
Further west along Highway 14. A harbour town with a growing number of new homes and easy access to the Sooke Potholes and the coast.
