The Lisa Helps effect and her army of 30 year old disgruntled malcontents are the best thing to happen to Victoria's suburbs. Maybe next year I will list my condo and move to the suburbs too. I tell myself just one more break in Banksy, you've got one more break in left in ya before you pack it in and move west.

I want to personally thank Lisa and her little helpers for encouraging me to move out of the city of Victoria. Finding peace and quiet for the past 6 months has made my stress level drop, my personal security improve dramatically and the sounds of drug-addled people screaming at all hours of the night disappear completely. And to top it off, I no longer need to deal with the ethical dilemma of my property taxes supporting the idiocy of COV decision making. Best move ever!

By then you might not be able to afford it… suburban values are going up while Victoria values are flat and could go down.The Lisa Helps effect and her army of 30 year old disgruntled malcontents are the best thing to happen to Victoria's suburbs.

It’s a cancer that is metastasizing…Well, we are starting to see hints of who will be running in municipal elections next year in Saanich and Langford. And it looks like the Victoria way of doing businesses is seeking export opportunities.

I am guessing more like 1.6 million this spring for an average SFH.

Average gross income of a realtor in Greater Victoria is $55k per year. And that’s before your realtor expenses, like fees, gas, etc.
It’s a job people think is a quick way to earning a lot of money but it’s very tough to make money at consistently. Eventually the newcomers run out of family and friends to sell or buy with, and the industry is full of people in that predicament.
Per hour of productive work it's very lucrative.
It's just that most Realtors work very short hours per week. Most just wait for listings. Most Realtors have no listings and nobody is going to convince me they spend 40 hours a week looking for some.
It's the usual 90/10 or 80/20 Pareto distribution.
The average salary for the top 10 or 15% of Realtors is well over $200,000.

...We’re also not going to tax ourselves into affordability.
But you know the current governments - both here and in Ottawa - will try and do this. It's at the heart of their philosophies.

Society is operated on the premise of homeownership as a laudable goal and an aspiration, so crucifying homeowners once they buy a home is counter productive and ultimately destructive. Governments know this.
Governments are driven by what is most likely to get them elected and re-elected. That is all.

What we’re likely to see is what we saw post-war in Canada, those being incentives for people to move into rural communities.
And it’s already happening without those incentives. ‘Homesteading’ and a return to a slower pace of life is what drove Vancouver Island real-estate prices through the roof last year. 30-50 year olds are giving up on the urban experiment in droves, and seeking places where they don’t have to play some faux role or part to fit into a society that has changed from a meritocracy to some bizarro world vigilante-driven class struggle. Everything is a crisis, everything is a problem. Who wants to live with that hanging over you all day, everyday?
Tom Green has started a new YouTube series (self filmed, independent) of his new life on a homestead back in Canada. He sold his LA home and now lives on 100 acres in the wilds of (I think) Ontario. This is a look into the future, folks. And he’s not comedian Tom Green, he’s serious, getting back to his roots Tom Green who left behind the urban race to pursue a healthier, slower life.
