    Happy cow, you are very correct this time ....  

It is pretty much common sense as well, I am surprised Mr. big C sister hasn't done research this time .... lol

This post:

Happy cow : 1, Big C sister : 0

The fact is .. even someone wants to charge $1500 or $2000 for rent .. but no one is going to rent it, he has to lower the price to $1200 or so ..  

Yes, $1,200 may not be able to break even, (not talking about how much value for the condo/house will increase) however, it is still better then nothing!  How many condo/house in Van, is empty??

On the other hand, for example, Calgary, which is the second most expensive housing market in Canada, but still lower price then great Vancouver, (not talking about richmond or Coq) but rental cost in Calgary is so much higher then Vancouver ..

Simple, demand and supply.

因為有舊貨呀嘛。

Calgary都係幾年前開始風光﹐所以好多人有舊樓咪可以平租囉。

    But how much are they?  $700K  $800K ? $1500-1700 is like 0.2-0.25%

Say Calgary, $400K uptown appartment, can rent for that amount ... so 0.4-0.5% ..

Or Edmonton, $300K downtown appartment, can rent for $800 or so ..
