Belford Properties

What Belford Properties does

Belford Properties is a Vancouver-based residential real estate developer founded in 2014 that builds and sells wellness-focused condominium, townhouse, and rental projects across Metro Vancouver. The company's product portfolio includes the Sun Towers master plan in Metrotown (Burnaby) — a two-tower, 588-unit mixed-use development with the 24,000+ sq ft Solaris Club amenity, 70,000 sq ft of AAA office space, 30,000 sq ft of retail (collectively 'THE CENTRE'), and a co-located Montessori daycare; the 128-unit Dansey low-rise in Coquitlam West; the 18-unit Churchill Townhomes in East Marpole; and the 93-unit REVIVE townhouse project in Vancouver West, the first development under the 'Wellside Collection' sub-brand. Construction uses cold-formed steel framing marketed for its 700-year durability, recyclability, fire and earthquake resistance, and soundproofing. Residential units integrate wellness-oriented building features including MERV 13 air filtration, dual water filtration, smart thermostats, and individual air conditioning, alongside large amenity programs and community-oriented programming with partners such as Burnaby Neighbourhood House, DIALOG, Vancouver Art Gallery, and Wonderworld Montessori Academy.

The business operates a traditional pre-sale real estate model: a corporate sales team and on-site Experience Centre conduct pre-construction sales, with buyers placing deposits (e.g., 15% for select Sun Towers 2 and Dansey units) and the company recognizing revenue at closing. Belford is also transitioning into recurring revenue through purpose-built rental buildings — including the announced M Residence & Spa and 388 planned rental units in Metrotown — alongside commercial leasing income from the AAA office and retail components of THE CENTRE. Unit pricing is not publicly disclosed but Dansey starts in the mid-$400,000s, and presale performance has been strong: Sun Towers Phase One sold 90% within ten days of launch with a 95% close rate, and Dansey sold 75% of homes in its first sales weekend. The company is privately held, headquartered in downtown Vancouver, operates with 11-50 employees, and has no disclosed institutional funding, parent company, or public ownership.

Target customers are individual home buyers in Metro Vancouver (families, couples, downsizers, and investors) and families with children, with secondary segments including real estate investors and design-conscious owner-occupiers drawn to the wellness brand positioning. Distribution runs through project-specific Experience Centres, designer display homes, the belfordproperties.ca website, an active social media presence (Instagram, WeChat, Facebook), an annual realtor appreciation program, and community events. The product roadmap points toward a deeper Metrotown densification strategy, geographic expansion into Coquitlam and Vancouver West, and a growing rental portfolio.
