Are most private courses in Calgary equity memberships? In Vancouver, most are not. Quilchena has an equity option, but it is substantially more, and no one will ever buy it because they are so far below how many members they need, the club will sell you an non-equity one for much cheaper. I have been told they are also looking to sell the course because they are so far in debt, are bleeding members, and the dues and assessments keep going up.
The three big courses in Vancouver (Shaughnessy, Marine Drive and Point Grey), as well as Capilano in West Vancouver and the Vancouver Golf Club in Burnaby all offer non-equity memberships from $65,000 - $85,000. I think Capilano is still on an 8 year waiting list. The other lists are smaller, possibly even immediate if you paid in full.
