Braden Koop Personal Real Estate Corporation
For most families, a home is the largest asset they own. It deserves to be advised on like one.
I bring two disciplines to the table. Before real estate, I spent six years as a journeyman HVAC technician. That taught me how a home performs over time and what it really costs to own. A busy practice, ranked #17 in Canada in the REMAX Top 30 Under 30 (2025) on commissions earned and #4 individual agent at REMAX Kelowna (2025) in the brokerage’s internal rankings, tells me what buyers in this valley are paying for right now. Together, that lets us price with evidence, prepare with purpose and negotiate from facts we both understand.
Strategic real estate, from someone who has seen the house from the inside.
I’m a full-time, BC-licensed REALTOR® (#191956) with REMAX Kelowna, born and raised here, working Kelowna, West Kelowna, Peachland and Lake Country.

Six years in the trades first
Before real estate I spent six years as a journeyman HVAC technician, inside the mechanical rooms of homes all over this valley, working alongside the plumbing and electrical trades every day. It still shapes how I walk a property with you.
For sellers, it means your preparation budget goes where buyers will actually notice it. For buyers, it means you understand what a home will ask of you after possession before you write the offer, with a licensed inspector still on every file.
Selling
A sale comes down to a few honest questions. What is the market actually showing us, how should the home be prepared, and which marketing decisions help a buyer understand what they’re looking at?
I handle pricing, preparation, media and negotiation. You’ll get the price I think this market supports, the evidence behind it, and a straight answer about what would change my mind.
And if a listing isn’t getting the response it should, you’ll hear it from me early, along with what the market is telling us and the options I’d weigh. Week six is a far better time to adjust than month four.
Buying
Finding listings is the easy part. The useful work is figuring out whether this specific home makes sense at this specific price, what it’s going to need after possession, and which terms are worth fighting for.
I buy property myself, so I look at your purchase the way I look at mine. If the numbers don’t hold up, I’ll show you where they break and what price or terms would make them work. My business runs on referrals, so the only outcome worth aiming for is one you’re still glad about in five years.

Great experience with Braden. He was accessible and prompt. He understood the challenges we faced buying and selling at the same time. He helped facilitate an easy transaction all the way from our first offers to our last and accepted. He took time to explain each part of the process and listened to our needs every step of the way. He put a lot of effort in to get us into the house we wanted and get our house sold. Highly recommend Braden to anyone looking for an agent.
We had a great experience working with Braden to find our home in West Kelowna. We were looking for a place that fit our growing family and he was patient as we saw multiple homes to find the right one. He was always available for calls and showings and made the process feel easy. His communication was timely, professional and he had our best interests at heart throughout. When it came time to make an offer Braden really stood out! He’s a skilled negotiator and was able to get us an even better price than we expected. We’d highly recommend him to anyone looking in the area.
Braden has been an excellent realtor - he is communicative, clear and helpful. He is very responsive and takes time to explain things in detail so we always know what we are getting into! He also has lots of contacts in the industry as well and has made great recommendations for other services that we needed. Would highly recommend him and glad we have his number if we need his services in the future!
