Sell it and buy an S65 AMG!

Dad already ordered an SLK 55 AMG about 3 weeks ago 😉 (2006 model)... I'll be stuck with my Cherokee until I'm done with college.

Edit: Not to mention, S class cars suck =/

Suck is a relative term.

Say what? Your house? Was it new construction? Add 24K gold fixtures?

Brand new home in a new subdivision, with no post-purchase upgrades.
Oh...that's Canadian dollars, too, eh? So...that's like $40 US? 😛

Baha 😉 Not a great time to be cocky. Sure, our dollar is still worth less than yours, but our economy is in much better shape.

In B.C. alone the construction sector grew by 30% in a single year, compared to 6.7% on average in the States.
 
That's awesome Qosis! :thumbsup: Congrats! Was this planned? Did you, like, consider the area's growth and financial trends when deciding where to build or is this an unexpected windfall?

Probably because you have much more to build in BC as opposed to the US..IIRC BC is pretty unoccupied, and maybe it's starting to get people?

Well, all properties values are growing in this area (West Vancouver only releases a certain amount of properties each year, and the demand for them is very high.) However, noone expected the values to grow this much. The house was bought as an investment for 810k, now it's just over $1M. Some people managed to buy a few of the places when they first started selling at $610k... 😱.
 
a "bubble" implies that the price is growing quickly, and will fall literally to nothing, or close to nothing.

I don't think there will ever be a "pop" but instead, the housing market will max out, and then slowly depreciate for 10 years or so.

We're not like the U.S., we don't piss other nations off. We didn't even take part in the war in Iraq. As a result of that we don't need to pour half a trillion dollars into our army each year.

That's awesome! My ex's dad built his house for 300k about 10 years ago. He's getting ready to sell but his neighbor just sold their similar house for 770k.

😀

cha-ching!
