That's what my realtor has stated too. He said I'm getting lots of online activity out and he anticipated a very active sellers market that comes early in March. So far it's been slow. A couple walkthroughs for me but that was kind of expected considering I listed in mid Jan.

I for one would have welcomed having literally Stark Tower on our skyline.

Holy C2E Batman now here is a blast from the past.

Airbnb is a great idea! I never considered that. Gives you some flexibility and doesn’t commit you to anything while you find a job. Good luck on your search, with initiative and hard work, you’ll find something. Great, that’s the Alberta Way.

No. You need to have employment and employment for two years with most mortgage financiers and a strong credit score before they take a risk on lending. If you have 25,000 up front I’m sure you could speak with a rental company about cash up front policies on a six month lease. Be aware if you...

I will be frank and honest. This is very difficult. I wouldn’t personally rent to someone unemployed or on any form of income assistance because of the risks that are involved as a property owner - to which there are a variety. If I got responses like that towards my unit I would politely...

Mines a wood frame 2b1ba 960 sq ft with the big balcony. The final sale price should be 215-220 and the realtor says the renos I did should create a quick sale. It’s a pretty solid investment property at that price. And profitable too. So Fingers crossed!

I was back all week doing renovations to my condo. There is very clearly a homeless issue downtown akin to what you see in all major downtown cores across this country. The social issues are clear, the solutions not so much. That said, after having not bummed around downtown much these past...

Anything will sell if it's priced accordingly. I'm basing my sale off speculation pertaining to being balcony side on the warehouse park, improved streetscaping, and the upcoming VLRT west stop a block away, and pricing for some room to negotiate which will land a buyer at a 5% ROI as an income...

My unit goes for sale in a week after two weeks of Reno’s. Wish me luck!

Curious what those south facing units will be like for natural light.

That glass looks awful holy. Not sure why recent projects in the downtown are so opposed to working in straight lines when called for.

Looking at other stations in other cities one would assume that spikes would be built into the design.

I wonder what the lease rates look like. Considering it's proximity to the Park and Norquest, it would make a good spot for another restaurant in the area. Considering what the building used to be, a great name would be the Creamery ;) In this case, it's not going to hurt much in the area to...

A friend of mine and I were just discussing this as I agree with you. In my opinion older homes have more character but I suppose much of it likely has to do with open concepts, efficiencies of the home, and general costs of repairs being further down the road.

Different strokes for different folks. I prefer lot size for a home and garage over all else. So older places in lower income communities. Most of my friends prefer brand new builds on the south side for reasons like quality of insulation and modern aesthetics.

From the sounds of everyone it would seem like the nightlife and overall scene downtown are improving though.

You could say design elements are quite standardized!

What they do with the balcony glass will make or break the design. It’s turning out to look very much like some of the new builds in Burnaby and those are quite attractive towers.

There's a great POV of the downtown core from NAIT as well.
