Nice twisting of my words.

Actually, it's because Vancouver has had so many leaky condos.
People there have learned from it, and even your average first time buyer is quite aware and cautious about leaky condos.

Most of Vancouver's leaky condos were built in the 90's, and the painful learning process has left Vancouver with changed building codes that don't allow for that type of construction, filtered out many poor developers & the most comprehensive new home warranty on North America.

I'm not talking about BC's version of Pointe of View coming over, I'm referring to companies like Bosa, Cressey & Grosvenor who have developments upcoming in Calgary and very strong reputations.
