David Maitre PREC* has proudly served Maple Ridge, Pitt Meadows, the Tri Cities, Mission, Surrey, Langley, and Abbotsford since 2005. He lives in Maple Ridge with his wife Monique of 25 years and their three children.

After training in mechanical engineering at UBC, David chose a career that combined analytical thinking with meaningful client relationships. That decision led him to real estate, where discipline, strategy, and work ethic directly shape results.

In his first full year, David earned the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver Rookie of the Year award, recognizing the top selling new agent by volume across the board. Since then, he has consistently ranked among the top 1 to 2 percent of agents, earning repeated Medallion Club and President’s Club recognition.

As a husband and father, David believes strongly in value. Through One Percent Realty and the Value First Home Team, he delivers the same high level marketing, negotiation, and service clients expect, while helping them keep more of their equity.

Known for being down to earth, detail oriented, and thorough, David approaches every transaction with honesty, integrity, and a sense of humour. Outside of work, he enjoys camping, fishing, hiking, music, and continuing his lifelong learning journey, currently working toward an MA from Regent College at UBC.

If you are looking for experience backed by results and delivered with genuine care, David is ready to help.
