Looking to BUY or SELL a home?

The High Costs of

What truly is a luxury property? In Vancouver,

a host of super high-end condos are arriving

on the market. So who is buying them, what

are they getting, and – the multimillion-dollar

question – at what cost?

“There is only so much demand, and there

are a limited number of sites where you

can develop a luxury project,” says Scott

Brown, president of Fifth Avenue Real Estate

Marketing. “Those limits drive up the price,

but our market is still relatively cheap com-

pared with London or Hong Kong.”

For Brown, to truly be a luxury development,

a home must meet certain criteria including

a location with a view, generous fl oor space

and glamorous interior fi nishing.

PortLiving CEO Tobi Reyes agrees that luxury

buyers want views, access to water and ame-

nities. “They’re looking for more interesting

design and architecture,” he said.

High End Booming

In mid-September 2014, there were nine

Vancouver luxury condos selling units priced

at over $850 per square foot. The almost-

sold-out Vancouver House has super-luxury

penthouses with record-high asking prices of

over $5,000 per square foot. Then there’s the

audacious Trump Vancouver, currently under

construction in downtown Vancouver with

pre-sales underway.

PortLiving has recently made its fi rst foray

into the luxury market with its new South

Creek Landing development at the foot of

Cambie Bridge. And other recent examples

of include boutique downtown development

Artemisia pictured, the curvilinear Jameson

House and the swanky Three Harbour Green

in Coal Harbour.

Of course, there are diff erent perspectives

about what you get for your cash. Frank

Schliewinsky, author of the Vancouver Condo

Report, says that buyers of the lower-fl oor

units of Vancouver House get “an excel-

lent view of the neighbouring shoehorn

housing and the traffi c, noise and

pollution from Granville Bridge.”

Identifying the Buyers

Despite reality checks like that, the desire

for unique luxury condos is undeniably high.

So who are the buyers fuelling this demand?

That’s a sensitive topic.

“Demand is being fuelled by conspicu-

ous consumption by Chinese buyers trying

to get money out of the China,” asserts

Schliewinsky.

Artemisia sales specialist Monique Davidson

has a diff erent take. Purchasers at this bou-

tique residence have mirrored the overall

luxury sales market. She says, “While pur-

chasers vary from building to building, about

a third are local buyers, another third are

investors collecting trophy residences, and

the fi nal third are international users who will

spend a couple months a year in Vancouver.”

At PortLiving’s South Creek

Landing, an overwhelming

number of the 15 homes have

sold to locals, with only two

or three purchased

by non-Canadian resi-

dents. PortLiving did

no overseas

advertising

and clients

found out

about the

site through

their own

networks.

But Reyes does concede, “That’s atypical

from what I’ve seen. Average sales to off shore

buyers in this market are likely closer to 40

per cent.”

Luxury Outside Vancouver

Given the limited amount of land in

Vancouver, luxury condos are starting to pop

up in other municipalities including Burnaby

and South Surrey. Fifth Avenue is currently

marketing Royce, which off ers breathtaking

views of Boundary Bay.

“Our buyers are wealthy down-

sizers,” says Scott Brown.

About the typical buyer, Brown adds, “No one

can say with certainty where they are coming

from. When you’re that affl uent, you probably

live in multiple cities.”

What does all this mean to more ordinary folks

who want to live in Vancouver? Schliewinsky

remarks that average buyers can forget about

fi nding aff ordable condos downtown unless

they can live in “shoebox” housing.

Adds Reyes, “These buyers are caught in a

cycle of competing for a great location with

end users who can aff ord much more than

they can. [But] I believe there’s a place

for everyone… not every space is going to

become a luxury development. The market

will dictate.”

Looking for a newhome? Start here.

I n P r i n t > O n l i n e > I t ’ s A l l H e r e

After years spent looking at homes all over the Lower

Mainland, Cindy and Francis Canosa fi nally found the

home that ticked off all of their wish list.

“We’ve been looking for a townhouse or a single

family home for three years and we just couldn’t fi nd

exactly what we both liked,” says Cindy Canosa, who

adds they are fi rst-time home buyers.

For the couple in their forties, a regular garage,

rather than a tandem one, was an absolute must. They

found that and much more at One44 in the sought-after

Panorama neighbourhood in Surrey.

“Because my husband and I work diff erent shifts, a

tandem garage just wouldn’t work for us,” she adds.

“We also loved One44’s open fl oor plan, the nice deck

and that it’s in a quiet neighbourhood.”

Meanwhile, it was also important to the couple to

have a large enough living and dining room for their

large extended family and frequent out-of-town guests.

“We are from the Philippines and we love to enter-

tain family and friends, many of which stay with us

frequently,” she adds. “So any house we bought had to

have four good size bedrooms, which it does … I also

love the number of bathrooms we have.”

The couple’s sentiments are echoed often, says

Sherry Scott, sales manager at Vesta Properties.

“Many of our buyers tell us the same thing,” adds

Scott. “They also tell us that they like the large foyers

which are rare in townhomes – typically you walk right

into a staircase and our homes not only off er an area for

you to drop your groceries and organize your shoes, but

also a full sized coat closet!”

Ray Dietz, senior marketing manager for One44 went

on to add: “Prospective buyers have plenty of options

to choose from including diff erent garage layouts, fl oor

plans with dual ground-fl oor entries perfect for a home

offi ce or guests needing extra privacy.”

Vesta Properties Ltd.’s One44 is a collection of 138

spacious contemporary residences, ranging from 1,350

to 1897 square feet. This quiet townhome master-

planned community is atop the crest of 144th street,

adjacent to an environmental reserve and anchored by

old growth trees. Many homes back onto green space

with bench lined trails dotted with picturesque pergo-

las and landscaped gardens – a true quiet oasis.

“Buyers love the fact that most of the homes back

onto a protected nature trail – we can really call each

home a parkside home,” says Scott, adding that more

than 50 per cent of the homes are sold.

One44 off ers a selection of two-bedroom +den (or

fl ex room), three bedroom+ fl ex, three-level homes dis-

tinguished by modern culture stone columns, rear bal-

conies and patios and private fenced front or backyard.

Each resident will have access to a private 4500

square foot amenity space, featuring a fi tness studio

with weights and equipment, meeting room and a

lounge with television, kitchenette and wrap around

deck for entertaining guests and community gatherings.

Award-winning Vesta Properties has nearly three

decades of experience in building quality residential

enclaves in both B.C. and Alberta. They have built

more than 3,500 homes, ranging from entry level town

homes to executive-style single family homes in over

40 award-winning neighbourhoods.

With prices starting at $295,500, the remaining

homes won’t last long. The One44 presentation

centre and showhome are located at #22 5888 144th

street, Surrey, are open Saturday to Wednesday from

1 to 5 p.m.
