Vancouver Real Estate License

Step by Step Process to Getting Vancouver Real Estate License Are you considering becoming a Realtor? Do you want to know how to get your Vancouver real estate license? If so then I’m going to tell you how to do that in this post. I legitimately have a friend or someone reach out to me on Facebook at least once a month asking me how to get their Vancouver real estate license. So I’m hoping this will help people out. Given the lower barrier of entry to become a Realtor and the lucrative money involved i’m not surprised so many people want to or try to become one. However, this is a full on disclaimer before we go any further! This profession is downright hard. It’s the exact same as if you were to start your own business. The first couple years are gruelling and you probably won’t make much money, even if the market is hot. Fun fact, 90% of all Realtors drop out of the industry in the first 2 years. Many would make more money working full time at McDonald’s. If you think you’re going to do this part time on the side, good luck! Ok so

Parking stall costs in Vancouver Parking stalls are at a premium in Vancouver. But exactly how much do parking stalls cost? With many people commuting to the downtown core to get to work parking costs can add up. Public transit and car sharing like Evo and Car2Go have made life easier, but still, wouldn’t it be nice to just own a parking stall somewhere close to your work and not have to worry if the same stall will be there today? Or not have to worry about paying excessive amounts for parking on daily basis, upwards of $20. Why you can’t buy parking stalls in Vancouver Parking stalls in residential buildings are rarely for sale. But why? For the vast majority of residential strata buildings parking is only allowed to be sold to owners in the building. So even though an owner may own 2 parking stalls and want to sell you one for what seems to be the going rate of $40,000 he will not be allowed to. The first reason is safety concerns. Allowing the general public access to the underground imposes certain problems with maintaining the overall safety of the building and the residents who live there.
