We are in the heat of a hastily-called federal election and housing is the central platform of the major parties, all of which say they will make housing more affordable for the so-called ‘missing middle’, us common folk who may simply need to buy a townhouse.
Yet the Lower Mainland’s townhouse market exposes the razor-thin housing supply that is the true barrier to more affordable and accessible housing. Townhouses are hugely popular, providing indoor and outdoor space and ground...

2. The $1M - $1.5M range also sells quickly if the property offers 2-3 bedrooms and nice outdoor space – add a view and the price point will stretch higher.
3. In the detached home space – if a home is listed below $3M and is move in ready and offers a rental suite – they sell quickly because this market segment is very thin in inventory. ...

Greater Vancouver homeowners are far more likely to own multiple homes than anywhere else in the country, despite Vancouver being among the world’s most expensive cities for housing. The reality, of course, is that Vancouver’s consistently elevated prices are the very reason some people want to own as many homes as possible.What should be surprising is that more Vancouver homeowners don’t do the same thing, especially today with both mortgage lending rates and housing supply at ...

Kristina and I met when we were 14. She invited me to her house after school and asked if I was hungry?
Vanilla ice cream, a jar of Moreno cherries, a splash of Brandy and she lit it on fire...I look on in awe. “cherries jubilee” she announced! and there began the greatest friendship of all times...
For all of you Kristina was something special and I hope I capture all the different ways. Having her in our lives was like having a real life Peter Pan. She was full of mischief,...
