Instead of selling your country out to foreigners you should be using your eperience and knowledge as a realtor to do something to ensure that your fellow citizens have the ability to own land. Instead we are becoming indentured servants paying rent to foreigners.

I don’t care where the foreigners come from, citizens should have the ability to buy land in their own country. Don’t give us any BS about how affordable any city in Canada is compared to cities in other countries… compare affordability in the lower mainland to other areas in Canada because we’re Canadians!

Shame on you. How do you sleep at night!

Here is an excerpt from my business philosophy: “Real estate is a whole new industry today. In fact, real estate has evolved to the extent that everything must continuously be questioned to see if there is a better way.”

This is simply watching out for a client’s best interest!

One time, after my client bristled about moving a large armoire twice – once to storage and again to their (eventual) new home – I told them they could move it to ther garage.

When I came by a week later, you could not GET IN the garage they had so much stuff there!

I’m going to make this required reading!

This is what is called a bubble. if 10-20% or so Chinese investors are paying cash and bidding up prices 30-40% a year which may come out 200-300% in a few years down the road, way outpacing incomes and inflation, you will eventually be making mortgages to the other 80-90% on inflated prices which will never be able to repay. Canadian banks may even come up with option ARM and negative amortization loans which expire after 5-7 years, much like the toxic loans in the US which blew up and a flood of foreclosures come on the market.
It will not be a pretty picture down the road, as Canadian banks blow up sending the economy into turmoil.
