The iconic siblings and real estate experts, Jonathan and Drew Scott, are well known for their much-loved HGTV show, Property Brothers. The celeb duo is actually from Vancouver, and they have some advice for anyone buying a house in their home province.

The brothers live in Los Angeles now but in an interview with Narcity earlier this year, they dished on the best areas in Metro Vancouver to buy a house. At the top of their list was Port Moody, which is about a 30-45 minute drive from Downtown Vancouver.

Drew told Narcity that Port Moody is an area near the city that he takes note of whenever he comes back home for a visit. "They've built up a really great community," he said.

He added that "all the houses in and around that area, the values have been going up as well, because there really is this outdoor community vibe," he added.

If you want to skip out on the Downtown prices, but want a taste of city life, this Metro Vancouver city might be just the spot to settle down in.

If that sounds ideal, and you want to live somewhere that real estate royalty recommends, then have a look at these houses for sale right now.
