Now this from <a href="http://vancouvercondo.info/2012/01/friday-free-for-all-188.html#comment-140816">VHB at vancouvercondo.info 6 Jan 2011</a>:<br />
<strong>&#8220;Another net 21 SFH in VW on realtylink. Inventory is 507. Here is the date we reached 500 SFH for sale in VW in previous years:<br />
2006: July 17th<br />
2007: never reached 500<br />
2008: April 6th<br />
2009: Jan 1st<br />
2010: April 3rd<br />
2011: April 11th<br />
note: when you have to look back to 2008/09 for precedent, that’s a bad sign for the market.<br />
note: VW SFH is behaving differently than the rest of the market, so we shouldn’t infer general trends. But it is still fun to watch what’s going down in HAM-town.&#8221;</strong></p>
