Vancouver is by far one of the most beautiful, livable cities in Canada. However, it does come with its concerns. Number one concern being that it’s expensive and there is a lack of well paying jobs.

With a number of high tech companies, Vancouverites are seen as tech saavy and creative. Last week, it was announced that Amazon.com would open a massive office in Vancouver. They have chosen one of the most beautiful, energy efficient places and have acquired 91,000 sq ft with the option to lease more at the Telus Garden building.

Around the same time, in demand Vancouver Company Hootsuite announced that they were expanding and hiring a large number of employees.

It’s always great news when well known, big companies expand in Vancouver, as it adds to Vancouver’s growth and economic health. Of course, it will also do a very good job boosting the housing market.

With an increase in the number of jobs and lower unemployment rate, people will feel more comfortable investing and buying real estate!
