I cannot think of a single situation I would want to live less than a microhome. Ok homelessness would be worse. But gently caress I hate the idea of microhomes.

Every time I see a new condo with their 9x8' master bedrooms, no closets and living rooms that are really just glorified dining rooms I think "this is way too loving small to live in" and yet now those are considered luxurious.

Friend and I were talking about the north coast in a whiskey bar last night, got to thinking about Prince Rupert. Further reading brought up this debacle which I doubt anyone in this thread has even heard of: http://quinnbender.com/chinasyndrome/ quote:In a depressed economy, Chinese government-backed Sun Wave Forest Products purchased the shuttered Skeena-Cellulose pulp mill on Watson Island, near Prince Rupert, BC, vowing to put hundreds of men and women back to work. The whole article is a great read. An excellent look beyond housing prices at the ways China and Chinese cash has been gutting this province economically for nearly two decades. And here, with more detail on the China side of things: http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/british-columbia/bizarre-trans-pacific-scandal-plagues-prince-ruperts-best-hope/article7651944/?page=all quote:Caijing published a report last year claiming Mr. Ni attempted to use the mill to secure more than $100-million (U.S.) in loans from state-controlled banks in China. The Caijing report said that in June, 2006, after Mr. Ni had already bought the mill, he applied for the loans, $60-million of which was earmarked for buying a majority stake in Sun Wave, a company he already controlled. Mr. Ni allegedly used forged appraisal documents in the loan application valuing the mill at $202-million. The appraisal firm named in the documents, American Appraisal Canada Inc., when contacted by The Globe and Mail, denied ever issuing the report.

It has wifi and I can probably get more if I let them use the hose on the back of the house for water.

HookShot posted:I cannot think of a single situation I would want to live less than a microhome. I dunno, the amount of space we seem to think we need is pretty enormous. A lot of the time we don't even use it, we just fill it with stuff. Don't get me wrong, I like a big kitchen and bathroom in particular, but I don't think two people need to live in a 2000 sq ft house.

http://vancouversun.com/entertainment/local-arts/vancouver-to-get-unique-soft-skyscraper-in-west-georgia-corridorquote:Vancouver’s skyline is about to get a unique addition: a ‘soft skyscraper’, clad with shingled panels to create soft, blurred reflections expected to make the building look ephemeral. $1 Million dollars for a one-bedroom unit, but that's OK because it's additional supply which will totally relieve the pressure on the rest of the market!

House down the street from me was up for 1 day before being sold. Apparently a bidding war took place and sold for 604k. For a bungalow. In Barrie. Also found 2 cards in the mailbox from realtors on a loving Sunday. This bubble needs to burst.

Femtosecond posted:I guess that 15% tax was a tad too effective for Clark's RE and development industry friends.. Can't really object, people who buy real estate without permanent status are kinda dumb (even if they happened to come out ahead in rising market) but they weren't the intended target and were probably completely overlooked when creating the law. There will still be people who failed to close on 5% down condos due to the 15% up front tax suing over the whole thing.
