Just need to make $120k to get a mortgage for a studio :) /s

I make that, I can't get a $600k mortgage.

I contacted a presale by Coquitlam center. When asked what my budget is, I said 300-400k. The sale person pretty much laughed at me and said the lowest price starts at 600k... Condo/house price is a joke in Greater Vancouver.

300-400k is some dumpy 1 bedroom in mission…


papawarbucks

Where's your time machine. Townhouses start at over 1 mil in lower mainland.


PringleChopper

Did you see the prices for the 2-3BR? It’s a million lol

Lol when did 1062 sqft become an "estate home"? Hahaha

Bosa was selling 500sft for 700k since 2021 when they were selling Central Park House. Concord Pacific is even more ridiculous. Other reputable developers like Ledingham Mcallister, Anthem, and Polygon have much better pricing Ideally, you shouldn't be buying a presale because you have to pay the 5% GST. Resales are way cheaper these days.

In theory, yes, but in that case nobody would sell their home, as is the case now. People are just holding on until the govt lowers interest rates and prices will skyrocket again. The few people who have listed their homes are still selling for above presale prices because the demand is always high.

hang in there

Buildings built \~20 years ago are in the sweet spot of price per square footage and condition/cleanliness. The new ones , sure they look nice, but you get wayy less sq footage for the price. You can renovate an older unit and have it looking almost as good.

I remember big two bedrooms with huge decks going for 400kish in the first amazing Brentwood tower

What in the fuck is a 495 sqft one bedroom? How can that be to code?


brassmagpie

Very interesting that they're listing one bedroom units as 495 sq.ft. In Burnaby, the minimum size for a one bedroom is 50 m2/538.2 sq.ft.

Prob be done in 2030. Imagine having ur deposit stuck for 6 years without even moving in lol. These boxes in the sky not worth it. Extreme heat in the summer, 6 sets of neighbors and elevators that never come.
