The Real Estate Board of Metro Vancouver reports
"Competition for condominiums and townhomes pushed Metro Vancouver* home sales above typical levels in August. First-time home buyers have led a surge this summer in demand for our condominium and townhome markets, with homes priced between $350,000 and $750,000 the subject of intense competition and multiple offers across the region."
The key to success in any market is to be well prepared, and getting you ready for all market conditions is my top priority. If you are planning a change in lifestyle, let's work together to make it happen. I look forward to working for you. Regards, Dodi 604.644.3634
