What Motivates Chinese Buyers in Vancouver

As a Chinese realtor in Vancouver, I meet my fair share of interested parties from the Mainland, and I can attest that the main reason that they are buying in Vancouver right now is that the market is still a high-value investment. 

Look around. We live in one of the most beautiful places on earth. It's safe. Clean. Politically stable. And welcoming. It's little wonder that other countries are wanting to enjoy it too.

Vancouver Real Estate - It's Time To Buy!

It's a buyer's market out there, people.

If you have been thinking about getting into the real estate game in Vancouver, now is your time to strike. The housing market is in a slump after a fiery summer, and you can finally get that Vancouver condo you've been after for a good 5-10% less than it was asking just six months ago.

Don't believe me? Do this little experiment on MLS.

Pick out an area and set some criteria, for example:

Townhouse/Rowhouse
2 bedroom +
1 bathroom +
West of Rupert
North of 41st
Between $400k and $500k

You will turn up about 15 places.

Click the link to see what I mean.

If you did this exact search 6 months ago - maybe 10.

Save the search, and do it again in a month's time. You'll see, it's a good way to get a feel for how the Vancouver housing market is doing.

Or, if you want a Vancouver real estate agent with her thumb on the pulse, and the negotiating skills to save you a bundle - well, there's always me.

Just sayin'!
