think about it, $450,000 plus GST for something in the neighbourhood of 500 square feet and no parking?
This could be the most overpriced and over-hyped Development so far, not to mention that it’s in a sub-par location, I believe a third of it reverts back to the City to become rental housing after the Games.
It’s not exactly Yaletown, and walking at night may be hazardous to your health, putting in a high-end supermarket (Urban Fair) there does not give the location any Desirability status.

The San Francisco Chronicle reports from California. “Sales of existing homes in the Bay Area and California plummeted in September and prices sank, a state real estate trade group reported Wednesday. In the Bay Area, sales of existing, stand-alone homes plunged 45.6 percent between September 2006 and September 2007, while the median sales price slid 5 percent to $702,240. September’s median was a whopping 17.7 percent below May’s peak of $853,910.”

“‘We see a sea change almost overnight in the Bay Area,’ said Robert Kleinhenz, economist with the California Association of Realtors.”

“Analysts said the current downturn is already more severe than the housing slump of the 1990s, and they predicted that before it is resolved it will rival the 1980-82 slump.”

Ah, once again we play dueling numbers with the New Home Sales Report. Reuters reports:

WASHINGTON, Oct 25 (Reuters) - Sales of new single-family U.S. homes rose 4.8 percent in September but sales in August were revised down sharply according to a government report on Thursday that painted a mixed picture of the battered housing sector.

According to the Department of Commerce:

Sales of new one-family houses in September 2007 were at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 770,000, according toestimates released jointly today by the U.S. Census Bureau and the Department of Housing and Urban Development. This is 4.8 percent (±10.3%)* above the revised August rate of 735,000, but is 23.3 percent (±8.0%) below the September 2006 estimate of 1,004,000.

Note that once more, the margin of error for the month-to-month figure is larger than the percent change, making the number statistically insignificant. As usual, at the bottom of the report, the Commerce Department states:

Changes in seasonally adjusted statistics often show irregular movement. It takes 5 months to establish a trend for new houses sold.

Translation: "Don’t get too worked up about MOM, you need to look at the long term trend." Note that the longer term year-over-year is down 23.3%.
