There was an article in the Globe & Mail newspaper about a home owner who bought a Kitsilano Bungalow in the 80’s for $287,000 and just sold it for over 1.8 million. A lot of people thought that was just crazy and no house should appreciate that much. These people obviously don’t own a calculator and have no idea what annualized rate of return and compounding can do for you when you buy and hold. Thought I would shed some light on exactly how much this home appreciated and how it stacks up to other investments.

It’s been a record setting Spring and Summer. Vancouver home prices are once again at record setting levels. Wanted to give all the people who just bought their first home a heads up. Get ready for all the doom & gloom that ‘Vancouver is in a housing bubble that’s ready to pop!’ stories. I’ve seen this cycle many times over the past 25 years. It’s what sells newspapers and gets people’s attention. Real Estate markets don’t go up forever. Short term volatility and corrections are normal and we’re going to get another correction or what I call buying opportunity one of these days (we just had a fantastic one in 2012).
