Pretty sure $800k avg is not the avg detached house pricing in Vancouver proper, but avg of all types of homes

But why is this 24-35 demographic having to buy into detached right off the bat? As I mentioned, lots of condo/townhouse type homes that you CAN get at $300k. There are plenty of 'affordable' homes available, but also many who are picky as F and feel that just because they rented a studio in Kits they should be entitled to buy a house there for half of what actual market value is.
