2/ $1B per year COMPLETELY controls the West Side mkt.
Last week I tweeted about ONE woman from China 10 years ago looking to buy 4 to 5 homes on the West Side. If she's looking to spend $20M, all you would need would be 49 more of her to completely buy up every

3/ property that hits the mkt on the West Side.
Is that so inconceivable?
50 wealthy Chinese investors could come in a corner the West Side #Vanre mkt.
Now throw in the local money launderers as in the #VancouverSun article and you need even less than 50 Chinese buyers.

2/ level of the tide that could be the final nail in the #Vanre mkt once the full effect of foreign owners (FLIPPERS) selling their West Side SFD's kicks in. Considering that we are already 35% off the peak mkt highs, that in itself is an ominous thought.

3/ this place will not sell for $4M
Owners of this place are going to look back and regret their actions big time in about 12 months when they capitulate, sell for $2.4M, and realize they blew $1M in equity.

BOUGHT TO FLIP IN SOUTH GRANVILLE, BUT COULDN'T GET OUT IN TIME. NOW THERE IS SERIOUS #FONGO: 1749 62nd Ave W, South Granville, #vanre. Property was purchased in Mar/05 for $620,000, again in May/14 for $1.99M and sold to the current owner for $3.2M in May/17. Listed Oct/17
2/ to flip it, for $3.398M. Did not sell. 2019 Assessment came in at $$2.8M, and the assessment from the year before was $3.25M. Just re-listed today, Feb 6, 2019 for $2.98M, $200,000 less than they paid. But, that does not take into account transaction costs and the fact
3/ it is still listed almost $500,000 OVER TODAY'S mkt value of $2.52M. In the end I can easily see this turn into a +$1 million dollar flipping loss.
