I don't know.  Water view is nice, but no dock, no beach, no way to even walk down to the water here.

[Barrister]

Water lots offer a certain amount of privacy and obviously some people will pay a huge premium.  But it can be cold and windy a good part of the summer as well. 

 

Still the price certainly reflects the demand.

But what about sea levels rising and wiping out your property, these places should be selling for dirt cheap, right?

Land rises at the same rate as the sea and the more the sea rises the more mass in the sea so the gravity pulls it away from shore. If you stand with science you can buy waterfront no problem.

^That is more than double what that lot is worth. No views unless you are up on your roof, tiny lot, no backyard, road right behind and above you.

[Mike K.]

Smaller lots in Sooke sell for half that price. But also, the foundation work has been done here. I imagine $100k has already been sunk into this build.

[Barrister]

Or you can buy a crappy houseinthe Uplands for 2.4 million with a 24000 sq ft lot and divide it into three lots of 8000 ft at 800k per lot in a really premium area.
