I've heard a rumor that the Row units won't be for sale? i.e. already sold to investment firm?

Mike had previously confirmed that The Row was going to be all-rental in that thread. Have things changed?

chatted with developers, looks like the city wants rental suites to be embedded into new project starting next year and it really boiled down the developer(s) may ended up eating the cost/expenses.
In another word, pushing the average building cost higher. I wonder if any developer still wants to take the risks and starting building them at 900/sqft...
Investment firm/individuals may have a different take on perpetual income stream for those rentals.

The Row was approved with a 10-unit rental component, so there was always that guarantee.
Going back to your question about an entry price point, it depends on the unit type. You won't find much for $800 in smaller layouts but there's a higher likelihood that larger units will be at that price point, maybe even lower.
For a studio $875-$900 is your starting point. I wouldn't be surprised if we see $925 next spring, despite CMHC's warnings about a slowdown in 2020. Price responds to supply, and when there's no supply to buy that keeps costs elevated if not incentivizes an increase in cost. There's also the affordability factor that gives smaller, more affordable units an edge over larger units.

This is what ollivier1 is referring to:
VANCOUVER -- There are dire warnings that the condo real estate market in B.C. could collapse unless the province steps in to stop it.
A representative of a condo owners' association says recent changes to insurance rates mean that not only are buildings having to pay more for coverage - some are being denied altogether.
"This is something no one had foreseen," said Tony Gioventu, executive director of the Condominium and Homeowners Association of B.C.
Sounds like this is referring to old buildings. As buildings age the risk of insurance claims rises.

Anyone know how this might effect things?
A lot of media hype so far...haven't seen any issues in the buildings I own units in, so far.
