Point Grey & UBC Real Estate FAQs

It's a mix: established families on Point Grey's residential streets (large lots, older character homes, high price points), UBC faculty and staff in Wesbrook Village and University Hill, investors buying campus-area condos for the student rental market, and international families wanting proximity to UBC for their children's education.

It's UBC's master-planned residential neighbourhood on the south side of campus, built over the past decade, with mid-rise condos, townhomes, a commercial village centre, and its own elementary and secondary schools — a self-contained community that didn't exist 15 years ago.

Visiting at different times of day and comparing it with nearby neighbourhoods is the best way to judge the fit.

Point Grey & UBC's home prices are tracked by Greater Vancouver Realtors (GVR), not the Fraser Valley board, so Fraser Valley benchmark figures aren't a fair comparison.
