One can see the arrogance of those who clearly think "that laid-off Filpino hotel chambermaid couldn't afford to buy a place anyway". They don't get that it can be a multigenerational purchase with parents, kids and grandparents pitching in. While they might not be buying an overpriced swish Vancouver House condo, they could be buying an older home in Surrey or Maple Ridge.
