2010 Winter Olympics on Verge Of Collapse
VANCOUVER - Vancouver's Olympic Village is at least $131 million over budget and it's unclear how much the city might lose when the $1-billion project is eventually sold on the real estate market, an auditors report has concluded.
(snippet)
The business model underlying the city's real estate project is to have the developer, Millennium, build the units and then sell off the condo units after the Games, when Olympic athletes leave. But the steep decline in the real estate market has threatened to slow the rapid sale of the condos.
That means some units will not go to the market as quickly as anticipated, creating carrying costs for the already stressed developer. Both the city and the developer need prices to be above construction and loan costs to turn a profit.
