New Homes North Vancouver – Market Dynamics

The North Shore tends to see less new condo development due to limited land and quite a strong NIMBY movement in the area. The drawback of this is often that there not many new home options available and presale condo prices can be quite high in North Van. The upside is that the limited supply means good rents and price appreciation.

Our clients who have purchased presale condos or new construction homes in North Vancouver have experienced good capital as well as rising rental revenue mentioned above.
