About

Peter has always been a believer in the life-enhancing aspects of property ownership. He embraces this, not just in terms of its role in creating financial security and a legacy for our children, but in the grounding and transformational aspects of owning one’s home and having a family nest to feather. This long-standing belief and almost 40 years of experience investing in real estate, has inspired Peter to join his colleagues at Pemberton Holmes in connecting people to place. Your place. 
As Peter says, “home is a shelter for dreams.”

Peter lives on Salt Spring Island where he is raising two teenagers with his wife Lynda. For many years Peter co-owned and operated Salt Spring Kayak and Cycle. Peter is grateful to have made Salt Spring Island his home for more than 35 years. He is past president of the Chamber of Commerce and founding Director of the Salt Spring Institute for Sustainability, Education and Action. With a degree in Art History he is a practicing artist and the past president of the Salt Spring Gallery. He looks forward to engaging with you in the art of the possible when it comes to your real estate hopes and dreams.

Testimonial:
"I want to take this opportunity to express my admiration for, trust in, and appreciation of Peter Allan. My situation was unique dealing with my parents both 94 years of age. Peter is a true professional and a genuinely down-to-earth nice guy. To be compassionate is not just to tell someone that you care, but also to show them that you care by being there before they even are asked, and Peter did just that. I think you'd be hard-pressed to find a better Realtor. Peter thank you!" Neil M.

"Peter was fantastic to work with! He helped my parents and I through the process of finding the right home for our needs. I so appreciated the time and effort he put in. I will absolutely work with him again in the future and would recommend him to friends!" Tania
