Furthermore it's possible to buy a strata unit in a hotel such as the Terminal city club (near coal harbour) or the Marriot Pinnacle (in coal harbour) and then you get a return on the hotel and can stay there for 30 days per year. If the rich foreigners stay longer than 30 days they could buy 4 of them for $800k (or the price of a new 1+den in the same area) and get 120 days a year plus a small % return on the purchase price while it's in the rental pool.<p class="top-comments">Current score: <span class="top-comments-karma" id="karma-19026">0</span> <small>(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)</small></p> Scullboy, the point about staying at the Westing (or fairmont) etc. is very clever.

As BDK pointed out, I'll stay in the new place as long as I like, though hopefully that'll be a while. THe building is professionally managed and it's all rental units, so the landlord will never evict people because he is selling the place. At this point you have to ask..... how long will it take to build equity in a place if you're paying down a 40 year mortgage? We can all do the math, so really the question is rhetorical. The real questions are: 1) How fast am I paying down equity 2) How much of my income is going into housing if I own as opposed to renting 3) do the advantages of buying and owning at this time (pride of ownership, paying off equity etc) outweigh the advantages of renting (flexibility in a changing economy, much lower housing costs) Even if you have to pay increased rent in the future, you're going to have to pay increased costs of ownership in the form of higher interest payments . Even if the interest rate drops, at this point you'd pretty much have to take out a 40 year loan which means you're paying way more in interest. And then there are property taxes and strata fees. In comparison, 4% / year rental increases start looking good. Who says you ever have to own? If the price is double in 15 years... well then renting looks to be an even better value because relative to owning your cost of houseing will be super dirt cheap. It no longer makes any sense at all to own here. Even a wealthy foreigner would be smarter to stay at the Westin is he were so hell bent on living here. And if you're talking wealthy foreigners purchasing a pied a tierre, well why on earth would they buy in Vancouver instead of, say California or Nova Scotia for that matter? Wealthy people don't get or stay wealthy by making bad financial decisions. No, I love Van, especially on days like today. YOu do have to look around carefully to find a god rental, but they're out there and when you get one, you can enjoy the things Van has to offer without paying through the teeth for some badly built condo. Hell.... I may *never* buy here. I may just buy a little place in NS or NFLD. By the time global warming kicks in, they'll be rainforest anyway.<p class="top-comments">Current score: <span class="top-comments-karma" id="karma-18971">0</span> <small>(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)</small></p> Actually, I *HATED* my old place, and the neighbors were getting worse and worse.

Your comparison of condo's to cars is spot on. For some reason people believe condo's are more real estate when in truth that they are a rapidly depreciating consumer item such as a CAR. Very little of the value of a condo is in the land, most of it is typical of a car, nice finishes and a mechanical system and body that has a limited lifespan and will eventually depreciate to zero (the non-realestate portion 95% likely). Unlike a SFH where probably the land value will appreciate as a majority portion of the value. I very much doubt there is any presently built modern condo that will make it to the 40 year limit of new mortgages without a total rebuild...just like a car! :-)<p class="top-comments">Current score: <span class="top-comments-karma" id="karma-18942">0</span> <small>(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)</small></p> bdk; “If you were able to lease your car for 1/3 of the price of owning it would you still buy the car?”

You mentioned appreciation but fail to realize that real estate is not the only asset with the potential to appreciate, if one were to save the $2,000 difference between a mortgage and a lease and have invested it in any of the other asset classes which increased in value since Real estate started appreciating again (2004)then you'd have done quite well. When you say the price doubles you're not including the opportunity costs of investing the $2k per month into oil stock or gold or pretty much any sector, since it's not just real estate that went up! If you had leveraged $500,000 on precious metals or gold it would also be worth a lot more, just like real estate. Is this getting into your head? Owning a condo, that will go down in value, is not the most important thing in the world.
