Vancouver real estate: Just for fun…

Submitted by on December 12, 2010 – 8:55 amNo Comment

This week, we’ve been reporting on the Vancouver real estate market with our posts “Vancouver real estate: Bubble or not?” and “Want to live in Vancouver? Here’s how.”

We don’t mean to be depressing, but Vancouver housing is just plain pricey!

So if you’d like a little relief from this real estate downer, check out the following sites:

First, visit Real Estate Refugee, where Vancouver writer — and long-term renter — Carolyn Ali adds some humor to the city’s real estate scene.

Then, go play “Crack Shack or Mansion?

Can you tell the difference between a crack shack and a Vancouver, BC mansion, listed for one or two million dollars? Find out!

There’s even a follow-up version: Crack Shack or Mansion II.

Have fun!
