Hello Realtard, just wanted to let you know that Canada and Vancouver are the USA’s bitch and so are you. If the USA “have external,internal problems” then so does Canada only much worse. If you didn’t spend your whole day looking at the inside of you ass you might have time to look back on Canada’s history and see that when the USA is hurting Canada gets hurt much worse. Welcome to Canada you assclown.

One question, what evidence do you have of Americans investing in Vancouver? Americans can’t even hold on to their own homes and you think they’re investing in Vancouver at record low exchange rates? Canada is in for a world of hurt if you represent the intelligence of our immigrant population.

So in your mind people only recently decided they wanted to live a ‘peaceful life’, and Vancouver is the only peaceful place on earth?

Wow, you should really get out more.

When I went back in November 2006 he did not mention their additional property and I’ve read that the prices had not done much. This is despite being one of the nicest cities in the world with a great climate, lots of high paying jobs,major tourism, immigration, very few down and out homeless people walking the streets and (drum roll please) THEY HAD THE OLYMPICS!!!!!!!!

They also offer a safe place for

“Beauty,Weather and Universal language brings Sydney to a best alternate compare to European and Asian countries and compare to the problems in the USA.”

The point here , Krissh, is that macro economics are way beyond most peoples scope (including mine) and you are about as dumb as they get if you aren’t actually retarded so there is no way that you can understand or offer anything relevant to this blog.

At least I know enough to know that I don’t know much.

You on the other hand prove that ignorance is bliss.

This reminds me of friends and family that live in small town BC - they don’t understand how I can live in this city because they’re experience of it is through the evening news, they think people are constantly getting shot and disasters are happening all the time.

Try traveling a bit before you proclaim this place the greatest place on earth and a safe investment. This is the wild west, full of speculators and con-men. Its a beautiful city, but there are better, and there are definately much safer investments.

World has changed since than people likes to live peaceful life,There are lots of problem in European countries and UK to keep multicultural standard in chain,American Borders are very tight since long time people who don’t like to sit on their bank balance those people always look for safe investments.

Let’s say USA is first choice for the world to invest but they have external,internal problems.When Americans are investing in Vancouver,B.C. it’s easy to assume that “world will follow the rule of thumb”.

When Interest rates are low that’s mean you are not paying the burden to the banks what you are paying is a cost of your place to live.

“Population has always grown up”yes that’s true,Then the point is how many parking lots are left to construct that gives stress to develop more land,the biggest ever CARD for investors to PLAY SAFE.

Beauty,Weather and Universal language brings Vancouver to a best alternate compare to European and Asian countries and compare to the problems in the USA.

Vancouver does not only attract the overseas investor but because of weather condition-

” Vancouver is a final destination for Canadian people from with in provinces”.

Strong Economy,Low Interest Rates,Growing Population and Remaining land,These facts are showing us only one direction and Vancouver has changed in look as well after 2009 we will see the city in new lime lights.

Construction costs and interest rates are always changing, since when are those good long-term indicators of a markets health?

Remember that journalism is all about what happened, not an accurate predictor of what will happen. Take a look at changes in US articles between 2005 and now. Everything was booming and the articles reflected that - now its common to see reports of an expected 25% drop in house prices there.

If you REALLY want Vancouver to be the best place on earth I’m afraid you’re going to have to leave.

This article is a lesson for the bears

“Everywhere has problems. Vancouver’s are minor and vastly outweighed by its strengths. Livability is still excellent compared to almost anywhere else”.

They just need to add few more lines Like:”The best ever r.e.eclipse”Vancouver B.C.The best place on earth”-Mind It.

Underwhelming. Good word. That sums it up.

A few of us have been watching this debacle unfold for at least a couple years. But by Vancouver standards, this ‘news’ article is considered to be cutting-edge commentary.

I guess that’s the best we can do.

Underwhelming, indeed.

The fact that the mainstream is even giving this some credence, as well as the comments about the vulnerability of the condo market is certainly different, but still a bit underwhelming.
