greetings from sunny vancouver, canada! 75% of all vancouver real estate sales are condos. average price now $400K. our market is slower than the last few years, more listings coming on and prices have doubled in last 5 years. most asked question i've had this year "how does the US subprime affect vancouver real estate?" apparantely it doesn't..or not yet anyway. British Columbia trades less with the US than any other province. We love california and wish you the best.
