On Tuesday 10 July was the realtor pre-viewing of the newly completed model suites on the 25th floor. The finishes are even better than anticipated - they are spectacular! If you are looking for a centrally located super luxurious suite, these condos are for you.
The south facing suites on the 25th floor have a wonderful city view and some English Bay view, the north facing suites have mountain and Burrard Inlet view. The view from the condos on the higher floors must be fantastic.
Access to the amenities of the Rosewood Hotel Georgia next door is a great bonus: Sense (the Rosewood Spa), indoor salt water lap pool and gym, bars and lounges and the famous Hawksworth restaurant.
Room service and housekeeping are available. For some services discount rates are offered to condo owners.

A decrease in sales does not necessarily mean a decrease in property values

The statistics compiled monthly by the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver show that a decrease in monthly sales does not necessarily result in a decrease of property values even though this seems to be contrary to economic principles. Click on the above link and scroll down to "Download the complete stats package by clicking here".
.
On pages two and three of the stats package named "MLS home price index" is a list of the percentage change of the benchmark price for each area by property type. The benchmark price is the estimated sale price of a typical property in each market. The percentage change is calculated for different time periods - 1 , 3 and 6 months as well as 1, 3 and 5 years.



The Private Residences at The Hotel Georgia -------- 667 Howe Street, Vancouver

From Tuesday 10 July onwards furnished model homes will be available for viewing followed by listings on MLS of the remaining units. The quality of the finishes is superb, the location near Pacific Centre (across the road of the Four Seasons Hotel), skytrain and the Vancouver Art Gallery is very convenient and some units have wonderful views. The restaurant "Hawsksworth" at the adjoining Hotel Georgia is one of a kind.

The available units range from one bedroom and den to four bedroom and den plus media room. Prices range from $1,389,000 to $8,995,000 plus tax.
