Curious about how the recent Bank of Canada interest rate drop is shaking up the North Vancouver real estate market? Buckle up as we dissect the listing and offer statistics from early July to the end of the month, revealing a surprising seasonal dip despite the financial shift. We'll dive into the specifics of detached homes versus attached homes like condos, townhomes, and duplexes, giving you a clear picture of whether the market is truly cooling off or if something else is at play.
Next, gear up for a heated discussion on the zoning battle brewing between the District of West Vancouver and the provincial government. We'll unpack the contentious Bill 44, which aims to transform single-family lots into multi-family units, and the local backlash against what many see as an overstep by the province. Discover the arguments from both sides and the implications for housing development and prices in West Van and North Van. This episode is packed with insights and controversies that you won't want to miss!
