SO, rent in vancouver has gotten crazy in the last 6 months, the average rental unit has gone up several hundred dollars, and I wanted to put my vancouver real estate knowledge to the test.
I have lots of videos related to moving to vancouver, renting in vancouver, how to move to vancouver, how to rent in vancouver, things to know before moving to vancouver, is rent in vancouver expensive and many other vancouver realted videos you can find on my channel.
I was recently inspired by a NYC creator Shan Rizwan and his Public interview series he does - / shanrizwan
All credit to him since he inspired me :)
Guessing rent in New York City is a huge topic right now, but not just there, also guessing rent in la, guessing rent in tokyo, guessing rent in london, guessing rent in toronto, guessing rent in san francisco and more are all huge, and now... we have a guessing rent in vancouver!

@broodymonkey1532 Год назад

I guess one important question that you're missing out on is 'how long have you lived in that place?' Vancouver has rent control which can be a game changer. My roommate (the primary lease holder) pays 1480$ rent for his 2 bdrm place in KITSILANO because he's had rent control for 9 years. I pay 1000$ as a subletter/roommate so he only pays 580ish with utilities.

@rps1689 Год назад

Good point.

@AdamJBell Год назад

I did ask this question to most people, but I cut out some of the repetitive ones! But you're right, it's an important one ✅

@princessbuttonz Год назад

As a Vancouver-born and bred human, I cannot get over these numbers! I'm 40 now, but all of us in our early 20s were able to modest apartments for under $800. It's wild to hear that people (including us!) are routinely spending $2K+ on 1 bedroom apartments.

@littleripper312 Год назад

@manabusama Год назад

What is interesting, there are long term tenants in the lower mainland that pay less than a 1000 for the same suite in a complex that costs 2500 because of rent control. My friend in White Rock pays 800 a month and his neighbour has the same size unit and pays 1600.

@douglashoward346 Год назад

I sure would hate to have those rents. I paid 700 a month back in1999 in Vancouver and hated to pay that much. I did the smart thing and saved for two years so i could buy my condo in Richmond. now 20 years later I'm still paying 800 a month for mortgage and condo fees combined heat hot water and electric included 905 sq ft .

Hey Adam, the other day I felt miserable while walking back from the grocery store with 2 huge heavy bags that were destroying my hands while passing by a line of parked Mercedes, BMWs, a Bronco, a Tundra and a fricking Bugatti, and I couldn't help it but wonder, how much the people owning those cars actually make a year? That'd be a great video and it will follow a similar line as this interview series

@TheGalactus16 Год назад

That money was not earned in Canada would be my answer. Because you and me both know what kind of jobs we have here.

Those cars are leased or financed by people who are living paycheck to paycheck, or in the case of the bugatti/small percentage, people who are actually super rich.

@xih777 Год назад

@AdamJBell Год назад

As some people wrote below, lots of money comes from other places, but tons of folks from here also have nice cars. These cars can be afforded by people who have stuck in their careers for a while and now earn $100k+ (aside from the bugatti, that's crazy money you need to have) but there are also tons of business owners here in Canada who do very well for themselves. People do make the money to afford those things here, but just not on average 🚗
