General
There is a new look to our graphs and charts for 2020.   I hope that you enjoy them and look forward to any feedback.
 
You might have seen that there is some good news for first time buyers with some leniency with the stress-test.   If you would like any additional information on this, please reach out to us and we will put you in touch with one of our amazing in-house mortgage brokers.
 
There is some not-so-good news on strata insurance.   This appears to be impacting older, high density strata blocks in Vancouver and we have not seen the effects in Whistler yet.   However, we are keeping a close eye on the insurance policies that the different property managers secure for their strata corporations and watching for higher deductibles. As a seller of a strata property, you will see a new clause added to a Contract of Purchase and Sale requesting a lot more detailed information on the strata’s insurance policy – this is to help the buyers fully understand what their liability may be, particularly in regard to any deductibles that they may be responsible for.
