According to Bloomberg news, a demographia study showed that Vancouver ranked as the second-least affordable housing market, leapfrogging over Sydney, Australia.
It’s no wonder that people are leaving Vancouver to live elsewhere in Canada.
The study covered 309 metropolitan markets across eight countries including Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States for the third quarter of 2018.
Yay for second place?
