Michelle Yu has been in the business of selling homes in Vancouver with her Remax team since 1994, and is continually ranked in the top 100 real estate agents in Canada.

Michelle is no stranger to giving back. Michelle has helped many local Vancouver charities and organizations over the years, and recently has also become involved with World Housing as a way to also give back globally through her work.

In May 2018 Michelle Yu committed to donating her commissions from the sale of one of her listings. She has recently sold this home located in Vancouver’s wealthiest neighborhood and is now donating 100% of her commission from that sale. 

Because of this amazing gift over 10 families, for the first time ever, will have access to running water, personal electricity and a stable roof over their head. With a safe and secure place to call home, health will improve, education is ensured, and families will begin to climb out of the cyclical trap of poverty. 

“I understand how lucky we are to live and work in Vancouver, and I feel privileged to be in a position where I can help people here at home and in other parts of the world. Through World Housing I can make a difference to families who have nothing but a tin roof and dirt floor. We can provide them the safety and security of a home which gives them hope, and the chance for a better future.”
