Ep 7. A Party Island in Canada

A Party Island in Canada follows a couple from California, Jody and Jeff, as they search for the perfect island to turn into a vacation rental property. The pair are looking for an island that is easily accessible from the mainland and has the potential to attract party-goers and vacationing families alike.

The episode begins with Jody and Jeff arriving in Vancouver, Canada, where they meet with their real estate agent and begin their search. Their first stop is on Bowen Island, only a short ferry ride from Vancouver. While the island is stunning, with rolling hills and beautiful ocean views, it lacks the amenities and infrastructure that Jody and Jeff are looking for.

Their search takes them to several other islands, including one without any permanent residences and another with a large piece of industrial equipment taking up most of the space. Just as they begin to lose hope, they visit an island that meets all of their criteria.

The island is located near Nanaimo, British Columbia, on the eastern side of Vancouver Island. It boasts several buildings, including a main house, a guesthouse, and a cabin. The buildings are in good condition but need some updates and renovations to make them more appealing to guests.

In addition to the buildings, the island has several amenities that Jody and Jeff are excited about. These include a hot tub, a sauna, a boathouse, and a dock. The dock is particularly important, as it will allow guests to easily travel to and from the island.

The real estate agent tells Jody and Jeff that the island has been on the market for a while, so they may be able to negotiate a lower price. Jody and Jeff are thrilled and begin to plan out how they will change and upgrade the island to make it the perfect vacation rental property.

Throughout the episode, viewers learn about the logistics and challenges of owning an island property. Jody and Jeff discuss the amount of work that will need to be done to update the buildings and infrastructure, as well as the costs associated with owning an island (i.e., transportation, electricity, water, internet, etc.).

Ultimately, Jody and Jeff decide to purchase the island and begin the process of transforming it into a vacation rental property. The episode ends with the couple celebrating their purchase and discussing their plans for the future.

A Party Island in Canada is a fascinating look into the world of island hunting and real estate. Viewers will be drawn in by the stunning natural beauty of the islands and the challenges that come with owning an island property.
