Headed up to Squamish today to look at townhouses that I can’t afford, but they’re at least more realistic to shoot for than anything where I live now. Took a detour on the way home up the road trough Britannia Beach to catch the views from where I’d live if I had 2 or 3 mil burning a hole in my pocket.

Everywhere I wanted to live is on fire :(

(Sorry, I know I can’t say anything because at least Denver isn’t. But I hate seeing the news and not being able to do anything to help)

What’s a townhouse go for in Squamish? $600 to $700K?

I’d love to live in BC for a bit.

Okay, maybe vacation.

Yeah, older stuff is under 700, the new builds we looked at are 709-721 for a 2 bed, 820 something for a 3 bed. As far as town/row houses go, 710 in Burnaby gets you a 90s built  leaky piece of shit that’s never been updated, and a parkade instead of a garage in the unit. Still, out of my price range anyways.

If I could’ve walked another 15 feet they would’ve been out of frame....but I would’ve been shoulder deep in blackberry bush

There’s a bunch of places in the interior I’d live, in theory, but they catch fire every couple of years...

It’s unreasonably gorgeous here, and amazingly varied across the province. But god damn is it expensive, and wages are so low.

Yeah, at that price point its all hypothetical.

Come out this way. Maple Ridge has its charms.....

I really don’t want to put myself into rush hour traffic....but it is in a more realistic price range

With the transfers and walking necessary to get to the industrial area I work in, it might even be slower. I don’t work in a transit friendly spot...

If you lived in your car, you could have views like that.
