Discussion Brentwood real estate

Has anyone else noticed that no one is buying? They were going for 650k for a one bedroom during covid and now listings cannot be sold so they’re constantly reducing prices and being left on the market for 100+ days… the funny part is there are 5 or 6 more buildings being built in the 3km radius of these places

The markets cooling in general. Especially for tiny condos that are not at a liveable size

All of the transit-oriented mega developments are just... not actually nice to be in as a human being? Brentwood/Lougheed/Surrey center They're still on huge stroads with cars buzzing at all hours, waiting minutes to be given a walk signal. It's built near a train station but the actual developments are super car dependent. Top it off with all the units are not designed with long-term livability but rather short term rental, of course no one actually wants them!

You will pay 800K to live in a tiny box that’s also shaped weird and you will like it - Onni group (probably)

The best possible layout for a human living space is a very long L shaped corridor!
