The assessed values for 麻豆社国产single family homes are increasing more than houses in the Lower Mainland, particularly the Vancouver-North Shore community, said Paul Borgo, acting assessor for the Greater Vancouver region.
鈥淰ancouver has had probably had less change, and 麻豆社国产and the Fraser Valley kind of comparably had similar change,鈥� Borgo added.
鈥淥verall, given our past increases of last year, it鈥檚 calmer and more stable but still on the positive side typically speaking for the 麻豆社国产properties.鈥�
