Custom Watercolour House Portraits: Realtor Gifts in Nanaimo

Updated: Oct 15

Make Every Sale Memorable with a Personalized Touch


As a realtor, you know that buying a home is more than just a transaction; it's a milestone. So why not mark that moment with a gift that’s as personal and lasting as the home itself?


Custom watercolour house portraits are the ultimate closing gift. They're affordable, quick to produce, and deeply meaningful. Whether you're a seasoned agent in Nanaimo or serving clients across Vancouver Island, this unique gesture will set you apart. Plus, it keeps your name top-of-mind long after the keys are handed over.



Why Realtors Love Watercolour House Portraits


Memorable & Personal

Each illustration is hand-painted to capture the charm and character of the home your client just purchased. It’s a unique piece of art that tells a story.


Affordable Luxury

High-quality art without the high-end price tag—perfect for gifting without stretching your budget. You can give a thoughtful gift without breaking the bank.


Quick Turnaround

No waiting weeks for delivery! These portraits are completed promptly so you can present them at closing or shortly after. Talk about a timely surprise!


Local Artist Collaboration

Support local creatives while giving your clients a piece of art they’ll treasure forever. It’s a win-win!


A Gift That Builds Relationships


Realtors who go the extra mile with thoughtful gifts build stronger client relationships and earn more referrals. A custom watercolour home portrait is a conversation starter, a keepsake, and a reminder of the care you put into your service.


Imagine your client hanging their portrait in their new living room and telling every guest, “My realtor gave me that.” That’s brand loyalty in action! You’re not just selling homes; you’re creating lasting memories.


Serving Nanaimo & Vancouver Island


Whether you're based in Nanaimo, Parksville, Courtenay, or Victoria, this service is available to realtors and homeowners across Vancouver Island. I work from reference photos, so even remote properties or listings outside the immediate area can be beautifully captured.


Not Just for Realtors


  • Homeowners: Commemorate your first home, your forever home, or the one you’re saying goodbye to. Every home has a story worth telling.

  • Sellers: Leave a lasting impression with a gift for the buyer or a memento of the home you loved. It’s a thoughtful gesture that speaks volumes.

  • Gifts for Parents or Grandparents: Surprise them with a portrait of the family home where they built memories. It’s a heartfelt way to honour family history.


How It Works


  1. Send me an email: We can discuss pricing. All portraits are completed on 8"x 10" cold-pressed watercolour paper and are delivered unframed.

  2. Submit a Photo: Email me a clear image of the home's exterior. This is where the magic begins!

  3. Receive Your Portrait: Pick up or have it delivered locally, or shipped across British Columbia.


If you're a realtor in Nanaimo or anywhere in British Columbia, this is your chance to turn a simple closing into a heartfelt celebration.
