What's the New Benchmark for Luxury Condos in Coal Harbour?
Ian
Watt video blogs about how there have been no re-sales of luxury condos
above $3 million at the Fairmont Pacific Rim reported on the MLS since
the 2010 Winter Olympics and whoever sells next might set the new
benchmark for luxury in the building and in Coal Harbour. If you want to

Ian Watt: Hi, Good afternoon! It's Ian
Watt in Downtown Vancouver. Wanted to talk to you about luxury
condominiums in Coal Harbour. Obviously the market is changed
substantially since the Olympics. Now when we look at the Fairmont we
have the sub-penthouse for sale and we started out at 8.0 and now were
under 5 graph 4.99 we've come down for 3 million dollars and that's
pretty much how it is in Coal Harbour right now. There are 24 units for
sale at the Fairmont above 3 million dollars not one has sold since the
Olympics. So there are some price changes happen. Not a lot, most people
stick on their guns but not a lot to report but things are changing. So
don't be intimidated by the prices. You never know the guy next door,
the guy down below he might be motivated and that guy is going to set a
new president for the building or for the neighborhood. Its going to be
very interesting now that we've dropped it to 4.9 is that the new
benchmark for the luxury? I don't know what it is. We'll find out when
the offer comes in but my name is Ian Watt if you have any questions.

Thank you very much and have a great day!
