Time for an update on the most asked question I receive at my open houses every weekend. Should I be a buyer in this ultra hot Vancouver sellers market and pay record setting prices? My answer has always been yes, provided you have a minimum holding period of 8 to 10 years to weather any short term corrections. Since the last blog I did on this question 18 months ago prices are up another 25% across the board. Therefore, I’m going to increase my minimum holding period to 10 Years. Watch my blog to learn my reasoning.

Here’s the blog that many of my viewers have been asking me about. What's the solution to curbing or at least slowing this ultra hot Vancouver Real Estate market and making homes more affordable? In this blog I will address foreign buyers and what exactly is a foreign buyer. I will also address new taxes that have been proposed and what their effects would be as well as the lack of supply in Vancouver, and why Vancouver City hall and the Province need to be approving more re-zoning and density.
