One of the listings even floats and is a steal of a deal for sea lovers.

The cheapest listing currently available is in downtown Vancouver, between English Bay and Barge Chilling Beach — yes, Google Maps still calls it that.

It’s a cozy one-bedroom and one-bathroom apartment featuring 530 sq ft of space, plus tons of natural light, listed for $289,999.

The next unit is located in Surrey and features three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a sizeable 1,413 sq ft of space, but somehow is the same price as the unit situated next to the beach.

Photos don’t do justice to the potential of this suite, as the pictured setup doesn’t necessarily maximize all the available space.

The listing suggests that there’s newer flooring throughout the unit, fresh paint, and stainless steel appliances.

Another Surrey unit is the next cheapest listing for around $100,000 more than the previous units.

The furniture, which looks like it’s from the ’70s or ’80s, could use some work.

The next home is a bit of a unicorn on this list. We featured it earlier this year, but the good news is it has received a discount.

When we covered this home earlier in the year, it was available for $420,000, which has now been reduced to $399,000.

This home likely wouldn’t suit anyone very tall, as the ceilings within the 470 sq ft space seem pretty low.

The floating home received some updates in 2021 and also in 2016. We feel good a-boat this one.
