Stats Flattish for Vancouver Area Real Estate

83
83 Comments

Vancouver area real estate has stalled for the second month, with the biggest drop in West Vancouver, but no big crash yet and prices are still way up from a year ago. The biggest drop is in sales:

The number of sales made in the region dropped dramatically in October 2016. There were only 2,233 sales, a 0.9% decrease from last month. Oh, your real estate agent said it’s seasonal? It’s a 38.8% decrease from last October. Pretty sure that was the same season last year. Agents typically interpret this as sellers seeing less value in selling right now. Conversely, less units for sale typically means lower inventory, which could push prices higher… eventually.

That is in percentage terms. In actual sales it is more like a 95% reduction.

I was right.

Foreign Buyers that are foreign students and homemakers are going to be fast tracked for permanent residency. Then the foreign money buying will ramp up again. What a deal between T2 and CC.

Can you read? The article says new rules brought in Jan 2015 make it more difficult for foreign students to get PR. Priority is now given to TFW (who work at places like Timmy’s). Just another reason prices will crash. Sorry Oracle wrong again.

Those Chinese business folks are just irresistible, they keep reinventing themselves all-over again…

“A numbered company (0996109 B.C. LTD.) whose lone listed director is businessman An-Ban Wang bought the property in 2014 for the bargain-basement price of $16.6 million, which was actually $6 million below the asking price.”

Is this a f*cking scumbag who complained to T2 about BC foreign tax? Those fuckers from ‘billionaires club” are nothing but flippers with “connections” in politbyro.

“An-Ban Wang is also listed as a director of Tentimes Holding Canada Inc. along with Ruo Xiong Wang and Dong Huang. The founder and chairman of Tentimes Group (or Tiantai Group), one of China’s largest real estate firms, is named Ruoxiong Wang. He is also a member of the China Entrepreneurs Club, sometimes referred to as the ‘billionaires club,’ which toured Canada last month. ”

Is he selling the property itself or the numbered company that owns it? If the latter, no foreign tax or PTT because there’s no change of title.

These guys probably made a lot of money from real estate. They can see that the game is over and are taking a small loss today rather than an epic one tomorrow. The bulltards on this website don’t even realize what is going on. They will be slaughtered.

As World Distraced by US Election China Unveils Three Major Decisions Within Three Minutes

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-11-07/with-world-fixated-on-u-s-election-china-moves-on-three-fronts

As the world focuses on the race for the White House, China unveiled three major decisions within three minutes of each other on Monday.

Among a raft of statements issued by the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress, Beijing named a new finance minister, effectively barred a pair of elected Hong Kong “localists” from office, and passed a cybersecurity law that may hamstring foreign companies in Asia’s biggest economy.

You really should change your name again, scale it back to just mega-bull.

In Februrary you can downgrade again to just bull.

April can bring in tiny-baby-bull and finally next June you can finish up with neutered-former-bull.

If you really want to do one more then go with….I’m not sure what words you would use for this…

Oh, you think we’ll reach 8999 in the next 3 weeks Whoreacle?

What a ballsy prediction considering that inventory ALWAYS goes down in November.

You truly are insightful and all-knowing but I’m going to say you’ll still be wrong like you always are and Dec 1 inventory will be 9150.

People are de-listing because buyers are offering less than ask.
People will list again in the spring.
Or maybe wait to list again. Nothing happens overnight.

Inventory is irrelevant this time of year. Nobody is buying anything unless they get it cheaper than the last person paid. Market will continue trending down 3% per month until Feb then the crash accelerates.

That’s a very interesting article. They say Composite real estate prices in the Greater Vancouver region stopped skyrocketing and Prices aren’t moving as quickly as they were, but aren’t plummeting either.

Hard to believe but the government seems to be realizing its goal. We will only know for sure in the spring, but if the market does bounce back, even a bit, just think of the position the Liberals will be in. With this new source of money they’ll be able to promise the moon for the next election. Plus voters on the outside of the tax zone will have experienced the wealth effect first hand and love them for it.

Check. And mate.

Yeah, few hundred thousand Canadians living there right now.

Insiders will know when the buying from Hong Kong starts here. Then a million minimum for a detached in the Valley. $600,000 townhouse.

there are, but then they’d have to pay tax. for them, they will ideally move back when they get old and want to retire to take full advantage of our social system.

but the threat of a PRC crackdown might convince some of them to move their money and families here, if they aren’t here already.

@Oracle – hmmm…interesting…how do you know PCAdvisor is YVR?

Surprised that none of the other passionate bears who care so much about Van, and the horrifying effects of Chinese on the locals are on Vancouver Reddit. I bet that’s a way more public forum with more readership to post views and gather support for whatever you want to do. Or have the bears tried and got banned too quickly for posting racist hate speech and similar shit as BPOM like to say?

The spring prediction failures keep trying to pump the market with wishful thinking. Meanwhile their equity evaporates.

doesn’t change the fact that you’re being a drama queen.

you’re argument style is very similar to space889’s. i don’t think for a second that you and space are the same person, but the styles of “reasoning” and logical fallacies you both have in common are interesting.

I have to agree with you, but let me point out that your argument style is no different. It’s all cherry picking and unfounded assertions.

Douglas Todd: Foreign money poses threat to B.C. democracy

“If Trump is elected president on today, is it possible one of the first things the transnational real-estate magnate would do is normalize his own fundraising tactics by trying to change American laws to legalize foreign donations?

If so, Trump could point to the North American example set by his fellow travelers in the B.C. Liberals, who have been in power for 15 years and seem never to have met a corporate or foreign donor they don’t like.”
