He bought two old houses, each at $700K &#8211; $800K, in Burnaby recently, and going to tear them down, and build new. One will be a home for his family, and one is the vacation house for his friends (still in China). And he ask me if I can help him to find one more in Coquitlam West as his &#8220;holding property&#8221;. So, I gave him a realtor&#8217;s name who I know well. On the way home, I can&#8217;t help but wondering: &#8220;Oh Lord, is it the beginning for Burnaby and Coquitlam NOW? &#8221; </strong></p>
