BCA’s assessment and the market value determined by a REALTOR® may be different. Why?

If you have ever wondered about your property assessment, the in's and out's of the assessment process, or why a sale price varies from the assessed value, the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver has put together some information to help answer your questions.

Grab a coffee, or some tea, and take some time to read this great report forecasting Canada's Top 100 Neighbourhoods primed for growth in 2013. The report is quite comprehensive, and includes capital appreciation forcasts, potential rental returns, population numbers, vacancy rates and more. I hope you find it useful, my team did, especially the fact that Lower Lonsdale is on the list!
