多伦多投资应该买地还是买房?

加拿大买房投资, 多伦多买房投资

多伦多投资应该买地还是买房？地方达人好介绍！买楼花和买地有一些相似之处，投资周期都较长。买楼花通常要3-5年才能交房。最简单的购买单块成熟住宅用地要取得较好效益也得3年以上。购买楼花可以前期投入资金很少，只需定金，剩下的首付部分在数年里分几次付出，对买家来说财务压力没有那么大。通常在这几年里还可以申请到购房贷款。购买楼花对买家的财务状况要求没有那么大。没有地产投资经验，只要能决定好地点，楼层，大小，价格就可以了，对投资者在房地产方面的知识要求没有特别之处。可以说是大部分投资者无论大小都适宜的一种投资项目。但买地这种投资就对买家有相当多的地产知识方面的要求。比如政府对土地的开发规划，要买地块规划方面的要求，地块是否有过污染，是否在洪泛区，适合建造什么样的物业等等。买地对资金的要求要高。很多朋友打电话询问，中国大陆的朋友希望在加拿大置业，但从来没有来过加拿大，是否可以贷款买房。虽然加拿大各大主要商业银行在中国都设有分行或办事处，可以帮助开户，但这种账户通常需要在加拿大境内激活，才可以用于支付。我在这里会介绍两位多伦多著名的本地中介给大家认识。各位可以自行联络哦 Kevin chen http://www.kevinchenrealty.com Tina mak http://tinamak2.ourubertor.com/Home.ubr

investment, news, real estate

Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi sold his Seattle home in early October for $3.835 million in an off-market deal. Having shifted gears to helm the San Francisco-based ride-hailing company in 2017, the 49-year-old exec was no longer in need of a home in the Emerald City. Khosrowshahi bought the place in the Pacific Northwest in 2010 for $3 million, according to property records. The purchase came five years after he was installed as CEO of the travel site Expedia.

Condo prices per square foot in the Vancouver city centre have soared 40 per cent over the past year, according to a survey from Century 21 Canada.

"The trend of fluctuating prices has very likely only increased further since our cut-off for data earlier this summer," executive vice-president Brian Rushton said. While Vancouver's housing market went into serious slowdown mode over the course of this year, condo prices in the…
