Vancouver Housing Market Implodes: Average Home Price Plunges 20% In 1 Month

Quote:

Three weeks ago, when we looked at the long-overdue sudden change in the Vancouver housing market, long a receptacle for Chinese hot and laundered money, we found that as a result of the implementation of the 15% property tax implemented by British Columbia (something we recommended over a month earlier), that the Vancouver housing bubble has burst.

This is specific to Vancouver, and a combination of the extremely large housing bubble caused by "hot" Chinese money being injected into the market, plus the very sharp pin of a 15% tax. The housing market - which rose out of reach of ordinary wealthy Canadians who were competing with stolen Chinese wealth - should now return to more normal prices.
