"Gorgeous" Vancouver home sells for less than it did just two years ago

A Vancouver home reported sold within the last week failed to earn more than it did just two years ago.
It’s yet another example of homeowners losing money on Vancouver properties that may have been potential investments.
The listing, 2795 W 37th Avenue, was reported sold on November 18 for $5,700,000, which was $50,000 under the asking price. The most recent assessed value for the home is $5,363,000; in 2022, it sold for $5,825,000 when it was listed for $6,000,000.

The listing adds that the future owner can expect “custom millwork, crown mouldings and high-quality craftsmanship throughout this gorgeous home.”

The home features a modern design consisting primarily of shades of gray and white, which helps make the splashes of colour stand out even more.

The colour of the hardwood floors also contrasts with the design of the home in an aesthetically pleasing way.

Other features include a media room with a wine bar “to entertain your guests.” There’s also a legal suite, which the listing says is “perfect for revenue or guests and family.”

There’s also a private backyard, which the listing says enhances the home’s value. The most recent assessed value of the home is the highest it has been in the last nine years. When it sold in 2022, it sold for well over the assessed value, which at that time was $4,971,000.
As mentioned previously, Daily Hive Urbanized has seen many homes that may have been potential investments lose money over the past several months. Many of those homes have been in luxurious neighbourhoods like Shaughnessy.
