Isn't it about time you stopped paying your self storage company's mortgage?Absolutely! After all, if you "own" a $500K condo, you probably don't have enough room to keep your-and-yours titanium road bikes, your retro Elektra walk-along-the-beach bikes and your food blender. So what better investment than a conveniently-located storage locker?

Who needs windows when you've got an electrical outlet?Ah yes, I neglected to mention that. The views are limited but you can hang curtains by your plasma tv* and display your favourite Vancouver skyline photo!Keep in mind that this unit is in a quality development complete with pool, fitness room and concierge. Isn't it about time you stopped paying your self storage company's mortgage?*Plasma tv not included.

Another obvious point that the articles didn't mention is that one big reason most homeowners don't have affordability problems is that they bought at pre-bubble prices.

Hahaha! Bcubbins, that is awesome.I don't even understand what that is.. An underground 191 square foot storage room for $77,000?I love the write up:Excellent downtown location in Westin Grand. Underground storage room with heating. No windows, but has electrical outlet. Good investment.Totally good investment! Who needs windows when you've got an electrical outlet?! Awesome!

Why all the sudden complaints about "affordability"? There are still lots of reasonably priced places out there; you just have to look harder. Take this one for example...only 7 years old and right on Robson...V614386http://www.mls.ca/PropertyDetails.aspx?PropertyID=5097717Only $77,000!!! How much affordable do you want? For that price you won't get luxuries like granite kitchen countertops or bathroom, but it does come wired for internet access!

It was actually in the Province, not the Sun. Oh come on now VHB, are you seriously suggesting there's a difference?

I'm not looking to complain about accuracy. I'm looking to complain at people getting paid to rationalize at a third grade level.

Ha! That totally made my day. OK, the Province IS more of a joke than the Sun, but it's one I can take. [/lather]
