Buying a home in Greater Vancouver is one of the biggest and most exciting decisions you’ll ever make. Whether you’re looking to buy a condo, buy a property, or sell your home and move into something new, this guide will help you navigate every step with clarity, confidence, and care.
Before diving into your search, ask yourself:
Have I saved enough for a down payment?
Am I managing current debts like credit cards or student loans?
Am I financially ready for ongoing homeownership responsibilities?
Buying a home isn’t just a dream; it’s a long-term commitment. If your answer is “yes,” you’re already off to a great start.
The real cost of buying a home in Greater Vancouver goes beyond the listing price.
Use this simple equation:
Total cost = One-time costs (down payment, legal fees, inspections) + Ongoing monthly costs (mortgage, utilities, maintenance, insurance, property taxes)
Setting a budget early on helps you stay in control, avoid surprises, and focus only on homes within your range.
Start with lifestyle:
Do you see yourself in an urban condo, a peaceful suburban home, or a quiet rural escape?
Next, think about the type of home that fits your needs; a detached house, an attached unit, or a modern condo. Don’t forget to consider if you want a newly built or resale home, as it will affect your budget and options.
