3x their deposit seems a little much. I was giving it more of a 100% return on deposit. So they would make maybe $50k.
Worst case is they would have to rent it out and lose maybe $500 a month on it cash flow wise.
Right now you can buy a studio at Surrey Central for $380k, so they speculating real estate to go up by at least 10% in four years, which isn't out of this world.
I would say it's worth the risk for some, but I don't feel anyone has really ran the numbers or done a proper risk assessment of it.
I was about to do the same, but I rather buy stocks. The more I look into real estate as an investment in BC, the more it doesn't make sense. Stocks are easier to manage if you can control your emotions.

If you were to flip at completion, wouldn't all your gains be eaten by assignment fee, realtor seller + buyer fee, and capital gains tax?
