Send us a text

In this episode of the Victoria Real Estate Podcast, host Adrian Maclaren, alongside Vincent Baart and Jocelyn Cseff from the CityNest Team at RE/MAX Camosun, sits down with Matt Rasmussen — CEO of Rolling Tides Construction, co-owner of Rolling Tides Developments and Northshore Haven, and founder of Ruth’s Ice Bucket Challenge for ALS.

We dive deep into Matt’s inspiring journey from tradesman to developer, his philosophy on building with purpose, and how his team brought 1789 Emerson — Victoria’s first six-plex Missing Middle townhome development — to life.

You’ll hear behind-the-scenes stories about the challenges, innovations, and unique features of these brand-new 2–3 bedroom townhomes priced between $775K–$825K in the heart of the Jubilee neighborhood.

From construction details you won’t see on a walkthrough, to Matt’s thoughts on the future of housing in Victoria, this episode offers insight, inspiration, and a closer look at a project that could mark a turning point in the city’s housing market.

Whether you’re a homebuyer, investor, or simply curious about where Victoria real estate is headed, this conversation is packed with value — and a few fun, unexpected moments along the way.
