Not sure if there's a better place to post it, but this place seems as good as any. The most Aspen of Aspen homes is up for sale:

You know it's not staged because of that hobo Dell PC and 2010 LCD monitor.

Good way to value a home. A million a red knob.

Edit: didn’t notice the bbq red knobs, my valuation model is clearly off

No, that's just all Hongers that still got BNO/HKID that got $1500CAD a piece of pandemic $.

NVM. thats only transaction over $10k

That said, my cousin is coming back after graduating from UC in the 90s. He will be brining in roughly $2M, $1.5M of it is real estate sale. So that article is spot on. No wonder HK gov had to stop early withdrawl of their pension.

My observation is that there are sticking point prices. I think inventory in the 400-650 or so are moving quick, but 700+ stays on the market for a while. Kind of to be expected, but there was a house we were very much considering which we thought was a good value proposition that is still on the market (actually has been for a very very long time) in spite of a 'wildfire' market.

Some 'funny stuff' happening too... (Vancouver/Toronto style),

https://www.realtor.ca/real-estate/2...algary-varsity - Listed at $499, which is probably $100k less than market value for similar homes... essentially said make your offer until the end of the week and highest would get the house.

And now CS. Honestly I'd take a noise wall over a house across the street. Unless I could see ES changing.

Goddammit which one of you fuckers lives across the street from me and watches me change?

Just a reminder that there are $3.5MM condos for sale in mahogany.

No one is dumb enough to buy that. Bet it stays unsold for rest of this year easy.

I toured that complex and unit with the developer, and while pretty impressive, i couldn't help but wonder who is dropping that loot to look at a man made lake in the deep south.

They've been making money off you for years.
Wait for a "what have you been drinking" post and then run up and hit record then post to website.

TBH, I'm surprised condos in that price range (and way higher) sell anywhere in Calgary. Seems insane to me.

If you’re the head of something important at the hospital, are never home... always on call... a condo vs home makes sense, close to work makes sense... if ya got it, live well... why not? Can even poop on gold toilets at the local steakhouse

Sounds like a good candidate to live in a hotel and own a place in Kelowna to me.

The Marriott? Nah, maybe if there was a luxury chain down there... only thing the dirty SE is missing really, a ritz Carlton

Red knobs per million ratio is better than that Aspen castle?

When you are rich enough, finding the "best value" for your many properties is pretty low on the priority list.
