I've lived here from when this building was first built, but the new neighbours will be the third owners now.
I can see why the last young couple moved... Check out what they paid, and the insane increase in value they received when they sold...
It should be noted that the unit was listed for $379,000. They got $420,800 for it, paying $258,000 for it less than two years ago.
Simply fucking amazing.

My house's value has dropped the last few years.
My condo has doubled in value in the four years that I have lived here (new build).

You seemed quite proud to live in a dumpy immigrant infested area.
Of course the value will drop.
You need to live amongst us upscale Whites and upscale Asians!
Only then can you be a member of the elite upscale White/Asian club!
As long as I see growth like this, I welcome dirty Honger money flooding in here!
Now where is my offering of a young, cute, playful, subservient Asian?

Real estate values across the province have dropped the last few years..
Carbon taxes and no pipelines to tidewaters are keeping them from rebounding.

Admit it, that you are not amongst us elites.
Enjoy your non-elite immigrant infested neighbourhood, and be prepared to watch values go down some more as they dump it up even more.
When you are ready, join us elites in Vancouver... We could use some Chinks like you, instead of the braindead FOB Chinks that happen to have big time dirty money that they like flooding into the market here...
Why don't you just fuck off.
Make other people HAPPY for once in your miserable, degenerate life.
Fuck off, Steve. Don't start shit up now because your boyfriend Dinky is absent. I'm not here to take his place.
Are you going to introduce yourself? Bring your classy salt n pepper shakers....

Alberta's real estate soared for many years and it will rebound if we get leadership in this province and federally..
And vice versa, your new provincial government could help burst the real estate bubble in BC.

Real Estate is not tied to economy anymore, with 'globalization' of citizens.
Now it's supply and demand, and the demand could come from anywhere!
One of my regrets now, is not buying a second condo and renting it out.
That would have provided me with a greater return than solid Canadian stocks, which have provided me with nothing really.
I truly did consider that, but thought I'd be 'safe' instead. I have to remember where I live... I forgot that, and didn't realize the gains.
My brother's condo he bought in Seattle was 700,000, its now valued at 1,000,000! Hes thinking of moving, and the place he is looking at is valued at 2,000,000! Up from 200,000 it sold for only 7 years ago I think. Of course its been heavily remodeled too. Looked like something in a magazine overlooking the bay.

Of course Alberta's RE is a result of a poor economy.
lol Not really sure is this considered as good or bad, my house when I bought it was around $760 grand and my neighbour's house was cheaper than mines and got sold for 1.3 million in just 3 years. And I wonder when will this madness stop, heard that the mainland Chinese government is currently cracking down on thieves stealing and taking money out of China hence why the housing prices in all out of Canada has dropped close to 10%.

That's what I heard too, lol just hope it didn't dropped too much, though I dun think I'll be moving out unless my house is showing signs of aging or problems like our old house, roof ceramic tiles were fracturing, wooden window frames need replacement and not to mention the mouse infestation due to my mom's rotten food, lol.

Stephen King use to be my favorite back when I use to read a lot. Some of his new stuff seems tame to me or something. Like after that accident maybe.
I dont know why Im so addicted to reading them and watching the movies. Maybe because it seems like I learn something knew every time. I love a lot of the quotes. And its just a damn good story of good vs evil lol. With wizards and dragons, I mean come on, whats not to like :laugh:
Quote from: "Bricktop"
And I thought I was an LOTR nerd!!!
Recently for Christmas, I made a few people Lord of the Rings calendars, designed, printed, cut, folded and stitched. They looked better than what you could buy. I included quotes throughout, and a lot on the back.
Im debating on starting my 3rd lap of reading them all again, and should be done by Hobbit day in September lol. On a Saturday this year, gonna be "a long expected party" :laugh: Im already putting plans together and gonna make custom invites. Gonna make a "Shelob's Lair" going into the bathroom, with webbing and blacklights lol. Food galore of course!
I have a Gandalf costume I made out of corduroy, and a hat I made too. My dad made a staff long ago that is similar that he handed down to me. He also handed down to me Gandalf's sword, Glamdring.
My Jeep Im planning a Tolkien theme lol, license plate is custom, and Im about to order a custom shifter knob. Custom decals and tire cover next when I get some of the other mechanical stuff worked out.
If I ever get a tattoo, its gonna be Tolkien themed :laugh:

I've read The Silmarillion, Unfinished Tails, Hobbit, and The Lord of the Rings, all twice each. I've seen Lord of the Rings maybe a dozen times if not more lol. Hobbit a few times.
They SO should of included Tom in the movie. He was an important character and a fun one too lol. I recognized him by the jacket, pants and hat lol. Barliman was the only cook/bartender/tavern owner with a belly like that of any significance in the Lord of the Rings, making him an easy spot too lol.
