I could go on and on about buying/selling right now and how it turned me into a jaded motherfucker who would like to headbutt the next person that wastes my time but I'll save it for when/if my house sale goes through.

High end appliances is like getting every expensive option on a car, when it's time to sell no one will pay you extra for them. Only time high end appliances make sense is if you're building on the west side or west van.

What do you guys think about this one? honestly, we are all over the map but the budget is the budget. Im not a big fan but the wife kind of likes it. Interior looks..... interesting??!?

Cant really see a big detracting factor though (unless you guys know something i dont).

Assessment was $2,253,000 which will go down for 2019. The property was purchased for $1.6m in 2016, factor in build cost. You should be paying close or even under assessment, that's where the market is at. It's a buyers market.

Personally I found houses like those to be completely soulless. That’s like the Richmond McMansion now, using finishings and wainscotting details that trickled down from the ultra high end of 15-20 years ago

Also dunno what they were thinking with the dark wood accents to go along with the all white errthang

Ummm I don’t think you understand how refrigerating food works. I assure you, your home fridge does shit.
Also, you should eat better food if that’s the path your food takes.

So much this. God damnit the whole industry should be reviewed with a tooth and comb. This is the biggest purchase of people's lives and yet there is little transparency.

Fish
caught -> process on board and frozen -> port freezer -> truck freezer -> local distribution freezer-> thawed in store -> cooler in store-> sold -> car -> home
meat
slaughtered -> frozen -> reefer truck - > dist -> store freezer/ cooler -> cut -> sold -> home
slaughtered - > cooler -> truck -> store -> sold -> car-> home

veggies
cultivated -> washed -> cooler -> reefer truck-> local dist. cooler - > truck cooler -> store cooler-> sold -> car -> home fridge

well it delays the food from being spoiled... but its not like a subzero fridge can eliminate the changes that has already occurred in the food supply chain.

Industry should just eliminate realtors holding the buying and selling completely.

Why should the information be so limited to buyer or seller? They should become as an advisory role to clients who wants to hire them. Same role as notaries, lawyers, mortgage specialists. Role to advise on what they specialize in. Not play stupid ass games and hope for a bidding war and all.

lol of course a fridge can’t reverse what’s already occurred so why even bring it up?

Subzeros help food last longer after purchase is the point...

https://www.rew.ca/properties/R23830...ive-burnaby-bc

like this fucking thing. Which has a few downsides. Backyard goes into some warehouse crap and its like less than a 1km from CN/CP mainline tracks. I gave her the asking price and shes like NOOOPEEE.

p.s. fuck your subzero fridges. why these assholes keep flexing a god damn fridge. i dont give a fuck you spent 20k on a damn fridge, ill gladly take a stinking maytag and have an extra corolla in my driveway.
Subzero fridge or not, that's a fucking beautiful house

You wouldn't even want to put vegetables in a sub zero fridge. It would fuck them up.
Its for keeping your beer colder.
Meat > slaughtered > butcher shop > my fridge
Vegetables > picked > store or farmers market > my fridge > washed

How this translates to "your subzero fridge reverses bacterial growth and loss of freshness" is pretty solid though.

It looks like something I built in The Sims while high on flu medication

Also, if I had a subzero fridge, I'd sing this every time I saw it

If a house was assessed at 2 million, but at the time it was still being build, is it safe for me to assume it will be assessed at a higher value now that it's complete?

The local population that can afford something like that is probably less than 1%. Wait the bitch out, you have all the leverage while she's holding on to monthly mortgage payments (maybe). If it's gone, there's another few hundred of those types of homes on the market today. Next time they call, tell her your offer is now $2.2M.

This house just sold for 2.1. Assessed at 2.5.

https://www.zolo.ca/richmond-real-es...0-parry-street
This one sold for 2.2. Assessed at 2.7.

https://www.rew.ca/properties/R23819...nt-richmond-bc
This one should be 2M max.

https://www.rew.ca/properties/R23830...ive-burnaby-bc
This one should also be 2M max. That warehouse is a major turnoff. Be thankful the owner/agent didn't take your offer...

The going rate seems to be about 15-20% below assessed for your run of the mill SFH. In the case of new houses, you're likely buying below the builder's cost.

What happened to High Point, Hobz? Some stunners in that area and you won’t have a warehouse for a neighbour.

Still possible. It's just super far for my daily commute. Maybe if I work in delta, but I really don't wanna leave my house and get stuck in 1 tunnel and 1 or 2 bridges just to get back to Vancouver / north van everyday.

To be honest you get sooooo much more for your money out in Langley. If I could only stomach that commute.

My sister just sold her house in Langley. Took about a week and got pretty much asking. I find Langley better than Richmond.
