VREP #517 | Why Vancouver Real Estate Feels More like 1998 than 2008 with Wendy Waters

Forget 2008. Real estate research analyst Wendy Waters sits down with Adam & Matt to argue that today's Vancouver real estate market has far more in common with the late 1990s, a long, quiet stretch where prices barely moved, governments rebalanced their books, and global uncertainty hung over every decision. From flight-to-quality buyers to the wave of young Canadians still living at home, the conversation reframes what listeners should actually expect from the next several years. Is the era of housing as a wealth generator finally winding down? Why does this downturn refuse to follow the usual cycle playbook? And could this slump actually be setting up something healthier on the other side? Don't miss this one.
