Why Some Buyers Regret Buying Near SkyTrain
“Close to SkyTrain” is one of the biggest selling points in Coquitlam.
But it’s not always the advantage buyers expect.
Craig Johnston helps clients understand the full picture.
While transit access can increase convenience and value, it can also come with:
- Higher density
- Increased noise and congestion
- Limited green space
Craig works with buyers to evaluate:
- How often they’ll actually use transit
- Whether the surrounding area supports their lifestyle
- If the premium price is justified
For some, SkyTrain proximity is a major benefit.
For others, it’s not worth the tradeoffs.
Craig ensures his clients make decisions based on how they live—not just what sounds good on paper.
