The BC Assessment numbers are out for 2019 and the most expensive Vancouver homes from a year ago have all lost assessed value.
The list, based on how much a home was assessed at as of July 1, 2018, was released online on January 1, 2019.
The highest-valued home last year was Chip Wilson’s mega-mansion on Point Grey Road. The seven-bedroom, nine-bathroom waterfront home is now worth $73,120,000, down from $78,837,000 a year ago.
