Vancouver is given a big boost in today’s New York Times, in the Great Homes, Lifestyles and Destinations section, outlining many of the reasons why investors and second-home buyers worldwide choose to invest in Vancouver real estate.

The article:

Preening for the Olympics, Vancouver Is Building Up

By DAVE CALDWELL Published: December 4, 2008

EVEN when it rains hard in Vancouver, British Columbia, the host city for the next Olympic Games, big yellow backhoes at construction sites near Coal Harbour.…(view full article here)

Those involved in local real estate estimate that about 20 percent of those second-home buyers will be Americans. “We’re really livable, which is why America likes us,” said Bob Rennie, whose company, Rennie Marketing Systems, promotes several developments in Vancouver.

At Downtown Suites, we manage the properties of many non-resident investors who own in Vancouver.

I agree with this recent Vancouver Sun article (Real Estate Sales Grind to Standstill by Derrick Penner) that there is always something fundamentally wrong when prices become too high for the local consumer to afford.  This is nothing new in our boom and bust cycle of real estate in Vancouver. I have seen it all before!

The writing has been on the wall for several years.  I was amazed at the continued growth over the last few years… way beyond what we could sustain locally.  I also agree that if you buy thinking long term and view real estate as a place to live rather than a chip on the monopoly board you are not going to lose.  Before we reach the nadir of the market is when all the prime properties will get snapped up.

Contrary to the stats of other agents,  at Downtown Suites we have sold several properties now for our clients looking to cherry pick good opportunities.

I agree the market averages will decline into the second quarter but the “dogs” will be the ones driving the average prices down further.  There is always a market for blue chip properties and they always ultimately appreciate in value as the market rebounds.

My advice would be to keep your powder dry and get in touch with a good agent who specializes in the area you are interested in purchasing and be ready to make your move when you see something you like.

Don’t run scared of the real estate market, we’re not…we’re doing more sales now than before…with over 30 years experience we’ve seen it all before! Call or email your local success story: www.downtownsuites.com.
