The same budget would buy them a condo with an average of 879 square feet of living space, two bedrooms and one-and-a-half bathrooms.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With a detached home averaging $1,612,400 in Greater Vancouver last month, Dinani says most Millennials have to resort to smaller dwellings outside of the city core.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cI call them affordable touch points of the market, really condominiums and smaller condos out in the suburbs are the new reality for that segment [peak Millennials],\u201d says Dinani.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In fact, the survey says 42% of buyers in BC want to purchase a condo or townhouse.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Currently market activity is ramping up in Vancouver\u2019s surrounding suburbs of Burnaby and Coquitlam as buyers are able to find more affordable options, says Dinani.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For Millennials hoping to find their dream home in Vancouver right now, they might have to sit tight as Dinani doesn\u2019t expect prices to drop anytime soon.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe reality is that the city proper market is very much supported, prices would have to go down a fair bit and I don\u2019t see that happening given the current appetite and the current level of confidence in the market,\u201d says Dinani.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/news.buzzbuzzhome.com\/2017\/08\/heres-what-millennials-home-buying-budget-get-bc.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Here&#8217;s What A Millennial&#8217;s Average Home Buying Budget will Get Them in BC<\/a> by Kerrisa Wilson | Buzz Buzz Home<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Millennials in BC are feeling squeezed out of the pricey real estate market and concerned that they won\u2019t be able to buy a home within the next five years.
