Marko's guesstimate of 330 is looking pretty likely now!

Marko does have some significant insight and experience in this particular field. I am not surprised he can "guesstimate" with a fair degree of accuracy.

Marko's insight for January's market activity is now here!

 

Downtown Victoria condo market struggled in January, while buyers battled for houses

Are you wealthy, but do not want to clean two bathrooms?

 

THESE are the only homes available for $900,000+ that only have one bathroom.

The other end of the scale, FIVE or more bathrooms.  A few coveted Gordon Head and Cordova Bay homes, Oak Bay/Uplands of course, and Bear Mountain.  Some weirdness in Happy Valley where all 5 of those homes are about $1.5M each only.

Is it crazy I can hardly find any one-bedroom homes outside the downtown core?  Can't single people or thrifty couples live in Gordon Head or Broadmead?

5+ bedrooms is what I've been keeping an eye on; might move or renovate, not sure yet. The turnover rate is pretty decent, new ones every day it seems.

 

Who wants 1 bathroom? It sucks if you ever have guests. 1.5 minimum for anything over 700sq ft, IMO.

I know "of" those great properties on Elk Road.... but I obviously didn't help build it....because I was still in school at the time.
