VANCOUVER DEVELOPERS ARE GETTING CRUSHED — AND YOU SHOULD CARE

by Kyle Mark *PREC

If you’re buying, selling, or investing in Vancouver right now — this isn’t noise. It’s reality.

Let’s break it down the way I break it down on YouTube — fast, factual, and with one goal: make you money — or keep you from losing it.

⚠️ THE DEVELOPER COLLAPSE IS REAL (NOT CLICKBAIT)

Developers who were banking on a booming Vancouver build-and-flip game?
They’re getting hammered. Projects stalled. Construction debt piling up. Deals getting scrapped.

Why? Two brutal realities:

Cost of construction is still insane
Buyers aren’t absorbing new supply at pre-pandemic pricing

It’s economics — not feelings.

This isn’t some “trend.” This is a reset — and it creates opportunity if you know where to look.

🧠 WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU — BUYERS

👉 Inventory climbing, sales slowing — buyers now hold leverage.
You can:

Get deeper negotiation wins
Pick up quality product for less than replacement cost
Lock in before rates shift AGAIN

But here’s the kicker:

👉 You only win if you’re ready.
Pre-approval, clear target list, and a strategic offer beat emotion every time.

💡 WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU — SELLERS

Developers can’t move product — your home gains edge IF you play it right.

Here’s the truth most agents won’t tell you:

Overpricing in this climate = crickets
Presentation matters more than ever
Marketing is now a weapon — not an add-on

This is where I separate myself from the amateurs — and why clients consistently sell above expectations even when headlines scream doom.

📊 DATA YOU NEED (NOT FEELINGS)

Here’s the current market snapshot (real, local, actionable):

📈 Inventory = highest in years
📉 Sales = down ~19% vs 10-Year Avg
This isn’t Vancouver normal — it’s strategic real estate chess.

Buyers get choices.
Sellers get scrutiny.
Smart investors get deals.

🚀 LEVERAGE IS EVERYTHING RIGHT NOW

Ask yourself:

✔ Are you buying in the right micro-market?
✔ Are you structuring offers for TODAY’S climate — not 2021?
✔ Do you have someone scanning red flags most agents miss?

Hint: I built my playbook on construction experience + high-stakes negotiations — I see what others don’t.
