The Vancouver housing market is crowded with choices. Do you want to live in a bustling condo near the SkyTrain? A quiet cul-de-sac in Surrey? A heritage-style house in New Westminster? Or maybe a modern townhouse in Burnaby close to schools and shopping?

We live in an age where homeownership has slipped out of reach for so many—not just because of the brutal affordability crisis, but because people are often looking in the wrong places, asking the wrong questions, or listening to the wrong voices. Too many are trapped by stigma, misinformation, or the social pressure to buy the “right” home in the “right” city, when in reality, that path often leads to debt, anxiety, and broken families.
