Lots of times, it's the cheapest bachlor/1bd units are the first to go as they only have 1 or 2 units and people want them.
That's how it was a few years back when I was actively looking.

This. The area will determine if one can get a 1 bed unit which is flying off the shelves in hot areas like Brentwood/Surrey Central. Most developers has always given dibs to family/friends/long standing relationship realtors. Then it's VVVIP -> VVIP -> VIP-> regular Realtors-> walk ins/regular Joe's. Then it's by allotment/lottery much like at Keary and Nuvo. Most of these presale realtors truth be told are the ones that can't get listings so they mainly focus on presales and everyone here loves presales. Have to literally ask the sales staff which preferred realtors they work with and go from there but be sure you're ready to buy otherwise you'll lose that relationship before you've even started one. Don't go around interviewing realtors on your own as they'll all give you the same answer/promise they can get you in.
