What's "2cc"? What would the neighbours think if you bought this as a pied à terre and let it sit empty for most of the year? Could you live in a city far away from Quebec and hire someone to run it as an AirBnB place for the days/weeks/months that you don't inhabit it yourself? |
A property like that for an asking price of $265 per sq ft. One wonders why people aren't beating a path to own "pied a terre"s in the old city?
I guess that means that it is supposed to be my turn, but I will cede the honour to someone else. |

The listing agent actually says that it would be possible for the buyer to get income renting the place on a more short-term basis. I can't guarantee your neighbors (the owners of the other units) would be thrilled if your unit became a year-round revolving door AirBnB spot, though. You'd have to check with the agent and see if there's some kind of condo convention and what it says. At least it's possible to short-term sublet the place according to the listing, which is pretty nice already. |

signalhill, what do you think it is, toronto?! That would be a steal ;) |

$1.2 million.
EDIT: Nevermind, carry on. :D |
It's not your turn. Kwoldtimer goes next (or allows someone else to go next).

Ok, take two. This is the closest detached home to me right now
http://i.imgur.com/7DHSw2X.jpg East side of Lonsdale in North Van (Moodyville). Not a particularly high end neighbourhood - traditionally working class - but close to some up and coming areas and the ocean. -Square footage not even listed because no one in their right mind would buy it to live in it - it's crack house calibre. No interior photos. -50 ft x 147 ft lot -74 years old -Next to a bus depot If you get within $200,000 I'll be impressed. |

Based on that observation of mine, in my early twenties when I chose to get into real estate in this province (which was a LOT cheaper then than now -- if you think this is cheap, you haven't seen anything), I was actually banking on it following a slow Louisiana-esque path over the following decades, the logic being that if someday it's just a typical Anglo province in practice, then there's absolutely no reason for property prices to not have finally approximately aligned with those. Financially, I'd benefit greatly from Canada becoming a much more uniform real estate market. I'm not counting on that, but any step in that direction, my wallet isn't going to complain. |
Okay, so $1.2 million was too low... fuck it. $2.7 million. :haha:

It's a big(ish) lot, so I'm going to say $1M
Edit: $750G if the neighbourhood is considered "up and coming" ;) |

Hmmm... $1.5 million? I'm probably on the low side, but $1.5 million is already absolutely insane for a SFH-sized empty lot that isn't in Manhattan or the core of London. I can't bring myself to type a higher number. |

With this game here, I don't think there's any such rule, so $1,499,999 is also a rational position to "flank" my $1.5M from the other side. In fact, if someone says $1,500,001 then someone else says $1,499,999, I am absolutely screwed unless the listing price is exactly $1,500,000. ;) Edit: Or I could just make a second guess, since we all keep doing that. :) |
This is the most Canadian convo I've seen here that wasn't about Canadian convos.
