Our Buyer Found a Great Fit in Coquitlam West
We’re excited to share a win for our client at #2508 – 520 Como Lake Avenue in Coquitlam West. This bright 1 bedroom + den, 606 sqft home at Crown checked all the boxes. Over height ceilings, full size Bosch and Fisher & Paykel appliances, a gas cooktop, shaker cabinetry, and a quartz and marble kitchen that feels clean and timeless. There’s a surprisingly large laundry and storage room, parking and a locker, and EV charging available in the building.
Our team at ABODE Real Estate Group moved quickly, lined up a clean offer, and kept every step organized so the process stayed calm. The value was clear. $550,000 with strata fees at $333, 2024 taxes around $2,035, and the price positioned below BC Assessment by about $30,000. For investors, estimated rent in this pocket is often near $1,900 for similar homes, subject to market conditions. The lifestyle sealed it. You’re steps to Burquitlam SkyTrain, close to Lougheed Town Centre, Vancouver Golf Club, SFU, parks, cafés, and daily errands.
