Don’t like to look at the dark stuff…but the reality of it is hard to ignore …. But Canada was suppose to be a safe haven…? Not such a pretty picture anymore …….

it is still a safe haven for canadians themselves as well as the lucky nations' citizens they hope to attract, which doesn't include americans unless said americans are rich and talented.

Usually people living near the edge financially in higher density populations can breed higher crime rates .
Hope Canada ( Vancouver) can survive that ?

It's about the only adjective to accurately describe wtf is going on here.
Look at this crap:
https://www.vancouverisawesome.com/real ... os-4961074
1,011sf for $1.5M. NUTS!
And where I live in the suburbs about an hour's drive from downtown, a house about 5 doors down just sold on my block for more than $1.7M.
And thiiiiiis is why I'm getting excited about maybe buying a home a 14.5 hour drive away where it's even possible.

If people want to undersell, that's their business.
Oh ya, totes! The neighbour 3 doors down from me that listed for $1.5x and sold for $1.711M in a couple days totally should have been asking for at Least $2M in this market.
Guy at work said tdy that two of his friends sold recently but then haven’t been able to buy anything even bidding $100k over asking price so now they’re in their parents basement suite or something. $100k over asking isn’t enough to buy a place rn - even when asking us already astronomical.
This region, as well as most of the country, deserve to have a catastrophic bubble pop & price crash for being so obscenely greedy.
A catastrophic bubble pop & price crash would be delightful.
