Shack or Mansion?

Just how crazy is Vancouver's real estate market? Take the test to find out.

A propos yesterday's post on whether or not there's a Canadian housing bubble, I invite you to take a look at this site dedicated to Vancouver real estate prices:  Crack Shack or Mansion?  I've read about the craziness of their market, but seeing pictures really drove it home.  I got 11 out of 16 on the test, but only because there were some gimmes.  The rest was blind guessing.
