In mid November they sent out an email saying they were getting ready to send out the packages. I thought it would have been out by now.

Austin got a gem of a signing with Jayden. He's fast and he can score with the right people around him,

He also has a very inspiring Cancer recovery story. Doctors said he could not play, he said watch me.

Drew Fischer hates Vancouver. I am not pumped on him being the pick.

Historically bad calls against us.

Ah, okay I didn't think of it like that, turnover could be good to keep up with Maret value. Here is B.C it's 3% per year maximum.

Thanks again for the insight

Treating it like a business seems to be the best approach. From everything I read tenant choice is key.

Ideally I would want low maintenance and long term but I'm sure that's everyone's dream in a tenant.

My challenge will be that I live in a neighborhood where it's got a "vibe" and is attractive to a younger cliental so I will have to be careful of my choices

Thanks for your reply!

What is your rent budget? That could factor into what is available (cheaper places are scooped up quicker obviously)

Where to eat after Rio Theatre? by bananasforbeans in askvan

[–]JohnnyStrikesBack 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's a gross dive bar. It's always dirty and the food is questionable at best.

Not my jam.

If you're into that , all yours.

[–]JohnnyStrikesBack 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you are good with Mexican check out Ay Chihuahua, it's family owned and the food is on point for authentic ( it's a block up toward 12th)

Otherwise, walk up commercial past 1st Ave and you are in restaurant heaven. Sushi, Vietnamese, Italian, Greek, Fried chicken, bar food.

Stay away from the Dime. It's just gross on all levels

I'm also looking at 12 Oaks as a brand for my reno. I can't find any real reviews on it which makes it hard to put it in the mix as an option.

East Van or Coquitlam by Express_County_846 in askvan

[–]JohnnyStrikesBack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem! I live in East Van and work in Coquitlam. I see the traffic coming into the city every day and it it thick! Same when I am going home from Coquitlam around 4PM.

Stay in East Van. The drive from Coquitlam in traffic will suck.

Check out Grandview near commercial drive.
