In John's Own Words:

With just under two decades of experience, John Cooper is a respected real estate advisor in Central Vancouver Island known for his entrepreneurial drive and innovative approach. After earning a Bachelor of Business Administration in marketing and a Sports Science diploma, John operated a strength and conditioning business before pivoting to real estate in 2007. Armed with a postgraduate certificate in real estate valuation and a passion for marketing, he launched his career in Nanaimo during the height of a market crash with no contacts and a newborn at home. Undeterred, he used his tech background and experience promoting MMA events to build one of the region’s leading real estate lead-generation platforms. By 2012, he was among the top agents in the area and has been consistently excelling ever since, building a strong reputation for results and forward-thinking strategy. His consultative client-first approach shaped by years of coaching athletes sets him apart as a trusted advisor not just a salesperson. Today, John is an 8-time ICON Agent with eXp Realty, a distinction that recognizes both his top-tier sales performance and his ongoing contributions to the professional real estate community.

We chose John Cooper after interviewing three other prospective realtors. He appeared most knowledgeable about market conditions and what we could expect. He produced a fine video of our house accenting the best features. He answered our questions in a timely manner. - Charlotte and Brent Richardson

Home in Qualicum Beach | Feb 2026

John and his entire team have been nothing short of amazing. From start to finish, I had every confidence in John. I bought the property in Qualicum Beach as a retirement investment, only to have my plans fall apart 1 year after the purchase, due to a matrimonial separation. The tension was high and time was not my friend, given the financial strain, I was under. Although I lost money given the market conditions, I can tell you that John and his entire team made the best transaction possible. They were sympathetic to my needs and situation and I was able to have frank and open discussions with John personally in addition to him and his team keeping me appraised every week on the feedback of the showings and giving me a realistic view of the current market conditions. I would use John Cooper and his team over and over again. He’s a great realtor with well rounded knowledge of the area who truly cares. - Rob

Reply:    I love a challenge. Thank you for putting your trust in my team and I.

John helped us buy and sell a house in Qualicum Beach. He was knowledgeable about the area and coordinated with the mortgage broker and house inspector to make it a seamless transaction. He was also able to share his extensive experience and knowledge about rental properties. - Julie Reynolds

Reply:    Happy to help. Managing my own portfolio of rental homes has certainly made me a better advisor.

Home Sale in Z4 South Nanaimo, Nanaimo | Aug 2024

We were so happy with John's work selling our first rental house that we listed our second one with him as well. The houses are not fancy and are in an up-and-coming neighborhood, but John's effort in the MLS listings is as though they are million dollar mansions. From beautiful photos, to perfect write-up descriptions that capture all of the property highlights, to very classy and professional videos that show each house in its best light. We continue to be so impressed with John! He has been great coordinating property access and showings with our tenants. He is easy to communicate with and negotiated very well a price that we were happy with for the property that sold (the other just got listed and we are very impressed with the MLS ad). I highly recommend John to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. We would never use anyone else in the Nanaimo area! - SunnyCity

Home Purchase in North Nanaimo, Nanaimo | Nov 2021

John and his team successfully negotiated the purchase of our new home in a relatively short period of time. We were in multiple offers, and were out of town when the negotiations were taking place. They also had to sell a piece of land for us to make the deal work, which they also did during this compressed time frame. The communication was thorough and timely, resulting in two successful transactions. - Chris Cornborough
