Market Updates

During the process of buying or selling a home, countless questions are bound to surface regardless of how "seasoned" you are in Real Estate.  Some questions are easily answered, however others may require a bit of research and study.   I understand how difficult it can be to sift through the mountain of information out there in order to find answers that are relevant and meaningful to you.  

As a firm believer in "knowledge is power," I do my best to educate and inform my Buyers and Sellers about the current market conditions and the process involved once you have made the decision to move.     

If you would like to receive regular Market Updates or newsletters please contact me at dodi.t@shaw.ca or call me at 604-644-3634

The Real Estate Board of Metro Vancouver reports: In February, home buyers in North Vancouver remain active in all categories, however, home buyers across other Metro Vancouver cities are showing caution around property prices, new mortgage rules, rising interest rates and new tax rules. This buyer caution is mainly target at detchaed properties, while the supply of apartment and townhome properties is still unable to meet demand. Spring is traditionally the busiest time of year for home buyers and sellers inour market. We'll wait to see how they react to the taxes and other policy measures that our provincial and federal governments have introduced so far this year."

 

The key to success in any market is to be well prepared. My top priority is to help you navigate these changes in all types of market conditions. If you are planning a change in lifestyle, let's work together to make it happen. I look forward to working for you. Regards, Dodi 604.644.3634

Home listings, on the other hand, came in several thousand units below typical activity - especially in the condo and townhome categories. Metro Vancouver’s home sales were the third highest we’ve seen in the past ten years while the home listing total was the second lowest on record for the same period. 2017’s sales were 9.7% above the 10-year average, and home listings were 4.4% below the 10-year average."

The Real Estate Board of Metro Vancouver reports:

Vancouver continues to experience above-average demand and below-average supply in our residential real estate markets. In November, Metro Vancouver* saw modest home listing changes and steady buyer demand. Last month, sales were 17% above the 10-year November average, and in-fact, home buyer activity has been operating above long-term averages throughout 2017, particulary in the condo and townhome markets. And, while we have seen an improvement in active listing levels in 2017, we have a longway to go before they rise back to more historically typical levels. 

The key to success in any market is to be well prepared, and getting you ready for all market conditions is my top priority. If you are planning a change in lifestyle, let's work together to make it happen. I look forward to working for you. Regards, Dodi 604.644.3634

The Real Estate Board of Metro Vancouver reports:

"Metro Vancouver* home sales exceeded historical levels in October with the majority concentrated in the townhouse and apartment markets; last month's sales were 15% above the 10-year averages for October. Market conditions vary significantly based on property type. The detached market is well supplied with homes for sale, which is relieving pressure on prices. It remains a much different story in the townhouse and apartment markets, buyers here continue to face a limited supply and are seeing upward pressure on prices." 

The Federal government's announcement of plans to tighten mortgage requirments for the seventh time in the last eight years also helped spur buyer activity in the short term. Many buyers are trying to enter the market before the changes are in place.
