Adam and Matt Scalena
About this episode

Remember when savvy buyers snapped up brand-new, developer-owned inventory at the Olympic Village during receivership and made out like bandits?

That rare opportunity may be back...if you know where to look. Vice President, Client Services at Rennie Jack Bernard sits down with Adam & Matt to reveal an opportunity that will bring you back to 2010. Paging Miga & Quatchi! From his unique vantage point working with top developers, Jack shares exclusive intel on today's opportunities and on the direction of the Vancouver real estate market more generally, from developers shockingly turning down density allowances in transit corridors to the rise of the "family investor" as a new buyer class.

What community consistently remains underbuilt, creating continuous upward price pressure? Which three specific areas would Jack personally invest in right now? And which unexpected factor does Jack believe is more important than price when it comes to reviving Vancouver's real estate market? You need to hear this conversation!
