Vancouver Pre-Sale Condo Negotiating

November 29th, 2014, Owen Bigland

If you absolutely, positively want to buy a pre-construction condo in Vancouver these days, then you may as well do it the right way by hiring an experienced Vancouver realtor who knows the Downtown market inside and out. Choose a Realtor who represents you (Fiduciary duty) to negotiate the best possible price on your unit, as well as walk you thru the 100's of pages of contracts and disclosure statements and make you aware of all your legal rights and obligations at all times. Many buyers don't realize that there are many items you can negotiate on the sale of a pre-construction condo besides the price, and the advantages of having a Realtor represent your best interests and not the developers, is critical if you want to get the bes ...

Climbing the Ladder

November 18th, 2014, Owen Bigland

Here's another real life example of how to do it right when it comes to buying and holding Real Estate and the type of wealth that you can create over time from humble beginnings. I'm going to share the journey of how one of my clients started with a small, 1 bedroom condo in Richmond 25 years ago and now just bought a 1.7 million dollar Triplex in Kitsilano this past Summer. His rise up the Vancouver property ladder didn't happen overnight. It was a slow methodical process... one that took discipline and hard work.

New Voting Rules

November 10th, 2014, Owen Bigland

The BC Government has just lowered the voting barrier that might otherwise delay important repairs related to depreciation reports. Normally a 3/4 vote was necessary to approve an expenditure from the CRF. It's now been lowered to 51% where the most recent depreciation report recommends the repair.They have also created a new special levy remedy to override the defeat of a special levy for repairs. Now if it fails and you have at least 50% in favor you can apply to the Supreme Court of BC to approve the levy. The work must be necessary for safety or to prevent significant loss or damage. The Strata Corp must apply to the court within 90 days of the failed vote.
