Selling Vancouver Real Estate Podcast


Feb 11, 2022

The speculation and vacancy tax was created in 2017 to reduce the number of empty homes, increase real estate inventory, and support affordable housing initiatives throughout the province.

James and Denny discuss whether this initiative has been successful and how the tax has affected the Greater Vancouver real estate market.

This episode will cover how the tax works, why it was created, who it is trying to help, which cities are not included and why, the exclusion criteria, foreign owners paying more, the advertising for this tax and the March 31st due date.
