Say your budget is $1.6M and a house is $1.68M, what do offer? What is even considered acceptable in todays market with offers?

I've also seen stupid owners that apparently get offended when I talked to selling agent at open houses. "Oh, the owner got an offer $100K less than asking and felt offended and didn't want to even counter back". A week later, I see owner drop the asking by $50K LOL.
Dude don't be so snobby about Van and Burnaby... if you just go a bit farther out 1.7 is easy to buy something for.

Look at the size of a place like this in Ladner:

Right in your wheelhouse... that bridge will get built and your house is gonna go up like 40% easy and it's got a frickin full out cottage in the back.

Even Richmond has a tonne of places under $2M.

Or you could buy half a piece of shit duplex I guess, up to you!!
