His specialty? Seeing what others miss — whether it’s a rezoning corridor primed for exponential upside, an off-market commercial asset ripe for repositioning, or a luxury estate that perfectly balances lifestyle and legacy.

Raised in Vancouver and deeply influenced by his family’s work ethic, Jay learned early on the value of integrity, consistency, and quiet excellence. Today, he leads Arkin Estates with the same principles — alongside his wife Nim, and in honor of their daughter Ashmyrah, whose name inspires one of his investment firms.
Whether he’s walking a site in Kelowna, structuring a complex land assembly in the Lower Mainland, or sourcing global acquisition opportunities in Oslo or Dubai, Jay’s mission is simple: To help his clients build lasting value through real estate, while staying grounded in purpose, family, and faith.
