Calgary real estate prospects

Speaking of using ‘median’ to describe and compare numbers.. https://www.realtor.ca/real-estate/2...k-road-conrich

I see the realtor also accurately rendered the last beyond car meet.

So it’s Stonks we are talking about now?

The topic of discussion originated with buying power for real estate.

WTF is happening in this thread?

One minute Beyond is made up of all power DINK créme puffs chanting "don't be poor" and laughing at $4MM builder grade houses, next minute $700k is unaffordable and we're combing through listings of $500k shitboxes to find acceptable single family houses just to spite 'coupe.

I didn't even think this was that far off... but apparently I'm living under the same rock

Most professionals starting out in Calgary seem to have a budget between $700-1M

Established professionals seem to be around $900-2.5M

We can’t all strive for the excellence of living in a run down 4 plex one day.

Besides location, why an old home?

Is it strictly budget?

I am part of the group that likes older homes, but for me its the well established neighbourhoods, bigger lots, NO INFILLS, (Sorry city council) and predominately the style of the homes. (Mid Century designs)

Dont care for the cookie cutter white on white on grey style of the new stuff.

You can build a new home to look however you want it to look like. The positive is everything is new.

I’m not a fan of buying an old house with an old foundation, old wiring, plumbing, insulation, etc.

No thanks

New build quality in the last twenty years is not a positive.

That all depends on who is building your home.

ftfy. Not intended to be sarcastic, just to point out that it's expensive to build things really well.

How old is old? Because the oooollldd stuff is built really bad (my friend's house had a dirt floor in the basement, stone for the walls and K&T wiring, with bare wires on cinder blocks in the uninsulated attic) and the stuff post WWII is cookie cutter.

I’ll take new, in the boonies for under 500k bob. I don’t think I’m qualified to use 89coupe’s services tho lol

Ah yes. Such garbage being near tons of parks, with easy access to zip downtown and affordable purchase prices. I sure do hate it here.
