A Vancouver home subject to a court-ordered sale saw the initial asking price plummet dramatically.
According to Zealty, 3998 Granville Street was previously sold in 2006 for $1,218,000.
Since then, the property has undergone many renovations and looks in excellent shape today. After the 2006 sale, the home was off the market until 2023, when it was listed for $24,888,000. That listing was cancelled in May 2024 after a price reduction to $18,888,000.
It was listed again for $17,999,000 in June of this year, but that listing was terminated in September.

It was listed one more time for $14,880,000 in September, and that listing was terminated in October.

Real Estate Vancity states, “A court-ordered sale happens when a homeowner defaults on their mortgage payments.” The urgency to sell, likely due to the court order, has brought the asking price down to $7,980,000, a bit more than the assessed value of $6,160,000. BC Assessment values the buildings at $580,000.

The listing says the property is “primed for redevelopment or personal enjoyment.”
“This 100 x 200 estate corner lot is a sweet opportunity for developers or an attractive investment for anyone looking to capitalize on its location and explore the various development options.”
Despite the major drop in asking price, the owner would still technically be recouping their investment if the Vancouver home sells for the current sale price.
