October was a busy month in Vancouver Real Estate and I've been working seven days a week and too busy to blog!

Three of my listings sold and I had one transaction as a buyer agent. In addition I received four other offers. One was accepted but the buyer changed their mind, the second one just got accepted and the other two are still under negotiation. I've observed an increase in verbal offers - a method of negotiating i dont partake in.  On average it takes about 30 showings to sell a million dollar property.

So who's buying Vancouver Real Estate? Based on my experience regarding the showings on my listings and the offers, the city is full of Mainland Chinese Buyers. They are either investors or they have immigrated here and they purchase luxury condos over $1M and west side homes. There are still quite a few first time buyers, the odd trade up buyer, a few local investors buying inexpensive condos to rent out and a smattering of investors from the US and Alberta.
