Vancouver luxury market

By
Real Estate Agent with Coastal Properties Group International

Last weekend Tami and I attended the Who's Who in Luxury Real Estate annual conference which was held in Vancouver.

Vancouver and Seattle both feature the crane as their local "bird" as luxury condos and luxury condos over hotels are going up in both areas.

We were able to spend some time with Jon and Sara Washburn in Seattle and with Alan Mah in Vancouver - it's really great when you can get the local viewpoint on what's going on.

The Institute for Luxury Home Marketing has just posted a report on Canada's luxury market -  Vancouver's luxury price point is $2,000,000 and this year is up 48% over last year.

We always enjoy visiting parts of the country that have a great real estate market - enthusiasm is contagious.

Hi Sharon: I heard the Who's Who in Luxury Real Estate Conference was great. I am also a member and usually attend at least one of their conferences a year. I regretfully was unable to go to Vancouver. I have never made it to the European Winter Conference...I would love to since who could resist a real estate conference combined with skiing!

I look forward to seeing you and Tami in Santa Fe later this week!

Maribeth - the best thing about the Who's Who is seeing old friends - I think many of them will be in Santa Fe or at the Luxury Conclave in Scottsdale. Yes, I could take a week in a ski lodge in the Alps ...

Sharon, shame on you, I'm a stone's throw away (or as we East Coasters call it - spittin distance) from Vancouver. We should have met up. But I know you were probably busier than a one-armed paper hanger.

Karen - I truly thought of calling you to get together, but we were super busy. I didn't think asking you to come to an airport motel at 7 am would be too delightful for you! We did see Everett on the highway signs so I thought it might not be too far away.
