Why Choose A Home in Langley


Blog by Antonio Vargas | January 24th, 2017


If you are unsure where your next Vancouver home should be, Langley is the obvious choice! Here at Vargas Real Estate, with our extensive experience in helping our clients buy and sell homes in the area, we can tell you that any realtor in South Surrey would highly recommend Langley as the place in which to buy your next home!

Situated east of Vancouver on the Trans-Canada, Langley offers potential homeowners incredible value on almost any type or style of home they are looking for. The city is divided into 6 residential neighborhood areas in addition to the downtown area. Because Langley is still a developing community, when buying a new home you can often purchase a “new build” that no one else has ever lived in with finishes that you could choose yourself!

With the cost of living in Metro Vancouver in recent years becoming exorbitant, residents are looking for a more affordable living option and Langley is a wonderful alternative as it offers affordability as well as a great quality of life. Small business owners, especially, enjoy the benefits of living in Langley as the township offers lower taxes, attractive leasing rates and many other benefits they otherwise wouldn’t receive in Metro Vancouver.

In addition to being affordable, Langley is also centrally and conveniently situated as a hub in the Fraser Valley and is intersected by no less than four highways. Langley Regional Airport is also one of the major business centers, houses several aviation companies and is Canada’s largest helicopter airport, accommodating helicopters from around the globe for repairs and training helicopter pilot students.

For Langley residents who commute to Metro Vancouver, the city has built a bridge to reduce travel time. Access to four US border posts are a mere 20 minute drive from the central business district.
