Amazing @eynorey! You might also be interested in checking out a video I made all about renting in Vancouver here: th-cam.com/video/_CCsCu3wgOQ/w-d-xo.html
Wow, you really hit this on out of the park. Reduced jump cuts, more b roll, on-screen maps really communicate the huge amount of information much better. This video is timely and highly relevant to us giving us a lot to chew on. Having visited Vancouver and spoken to you, I have crossed North Vancouver, the suburbs connected by bridge such as Deep Cove; and the island off the list. They don’t have the Vancouver feel, the friendliness; they aren’t as walkable; some have steep slopes or feel remote. We visited some other parts of town and keep coming back to Grey Point and Kitsilano. Broadway and west 10th street have a lot of great stores and very walkable. The 99B line and skytrain are close and taken us to where we need quickly; it’s a quick walk to the beach; and so easy to get to the airport when needed. I now see three options: 1. Buy a condo (top floor - low rise): Grey point / Kitsilano 2. Buy a detached home 3. Buy a condo and keep our home in Ontario. This might be a transition option. I appreciate the effort you put into these videos. Combined with annual trips to Vancouver, making a decision will be much easier. This move is about a lifestyle for us, walkability, access to stores and grocery stores. Thanks for taking time out of your busy day to speak with me. One thing to consider when you are putting a lot of text on the screen. Shift the A roll to the right by a third of the screen. In the gap, put a 1/3 background and put your text on that. That way the text isn’t going over your face and it gives you a lot of space for information.
Thanks so much @ordinaryfilmmaker! I'm happy to hear that these videos are helping you with your decisions when planning a move to Vancouver! And as always, I appreciate the advice and insights! :)
Finally making the move to Van in a few days time, after a year or so of planning. Just wanted to pop on here to say we watched all your videos and you were incredibly helpful. On the off chance we win the lottery and could actually use the services of a realtor out there… will be sure to drop you a line. Thanks for the great channel!
@alexanderbrown4437 That's really cool! I'm glad that these videos have helped you...and I am wishing you nothing but the best for your move. Let me know if I've left any of your questions unanswered!
Love your channel, I will visit Vancouver next year only as tourist but I pretend and dream that I am in the housing market for Vancouver 😋, greetings from the Netherlands.
I love your videos, I've watched each and every one of them. I didn't know that Delta got significantly less rain than other areas in the Lower Mainland. In your opinion, should prospective buyers like me be concerned about the potential for flooding in Delta - i.e. is that a real downside that people interested in Delta should be concerned about?
@Feehdabirds Thanks so much! Glad you are enjoying the channel. :) Honestly, it would depend on where in Delta you'd be considering. But you'll notice that the areas that have the highest density of population (other than Ladner) tend to be on higher ground (N. Delta and Tsawwassen). I think either of those two options are going to keep you pretty safe from the possibility of flooding.
Hi Sebastian, thank you for all your videos! I am moving to Vancouver soon with my wife and our daughter, and I will be studying at UBC for a year, so we are looking for a place to live. Could you recommend some family communities in the southern part of Vancouver?
Hi there. Congrats on moving to Vancouver! There's lots of housing at UBC these days, Point Grey, Kitsilano, Dunbar, Kerrisdale and Marpole are all areas within reach of the UBC campus where you can live with a family. Good luck!
It rarely goes below O celsius here, unless you are retired or rich you will be doing lots of walking so you will love the temperature because it's perfect walking weather. Electricity water and gas home heating is extremely cheap here
Good effort, however any analysis that neglects crime rates, drug use, and social unrest is sorely lacking. Then of course there's tangible things like property tax rates.
Then as a statistician you'll understand the challenges of sourcing the type of data that you're suggesting. And then (if available) comparing that data across varying jurisdictions. With unlimited resources and time this could be a very different kind of video...but that's simply not the case.
@jjlad5037 No question there. I'm well aware that bias abounds...as do limitations with any form of research. No one is presenting this as in-depth academic research.
People should move to maple ridge. They have 2 bedroom apartments starting from $300,000. You can put $15,000 down payment. You can earn $15,000 with extra jobs like cleaning houses, skip the dishes, Uber, security jobs in your own time. Mortgage payments would be around $1100 per month. Building maintenance around $300 per month.

Perfect timing, was just casually looking for a place to rent in Vancouver when this video dropped!

You should do a video about the Fraser valley thinking of moving to Abbotsford/Mission/ Chilliwack area

Nice video! Keep uploading pls
Thanks so much @kimhyesandrama!
Excellent, as always.

The transit in Vancouver is excellent
@ashwinters9315 I agree. For a North American city, few do transit better.
Great video 👍
Much appreciated, @mstt3530!

How about New Westminster?
how do you keep warm in winter
It rarely goes below O celsius here, unless you are retired or rich you will be doing lots of walking so you will love the temperature because it's perfect walking weather. Electricity water and gas home heating is extremely cheap here
Check out my video on the weather in Vancouver here: th-cam.com/video/wxu5bK_1odg/w-d-xo.html
East Vancouver duplex is more than a million already
@FamilyCheung-kc1pw Yes. That's correct. A new 1/2 duplex in East Vancouver is closer to $2M.
how about richmond
@doejohn5637 Richmond is an attractive part of Metro Vancouver for sure, but it didn't make the list of the fastest growing communities this year.
Good effort, however any analysis that neglects crime rates, drug use, and social unrest is sorely lacking. Then of course there's tangible things like property tax rates.
@jjlad5037 LOL If you'd like to pay me to conduct such research, I'd happily do so. ;)
@@LivingInVancouver-BC ..thank you for your kind offer, however I've been a statistician for over 30-years... if needed, I can crunch the numbers.

Vancouver lets you live anywhere for free. (Must bring own tent)
Even the homeless shelter's are expensive
@@averychilco
Unless you are not living in Canada. Every-in Canada is expensive, sorry you may need to leave Canada
@huskavarnaband Living on the streets is a desperate last resort.

@gegg1 Maple Ridge is definitely one of the more affordable communities in the Lower Mainland!
Best advise, leave Vancouver now!
