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.

As many of you know, Rachael and I are proud supporters of North Vancouver's Block Watch Program. We are always keen to share with you information you may find important in keeping yourself safe or up-to-date on the happenings in your neighbourhood. 
 
Follow this link for details: October 2014 Crime Stats for North Vancouver 
 
Please note that "Thefts From Vehicles" continues to be one of the higher occurring crimes in North Vancouver and Blockwatch reminds everyone that we are entering the holiday season with possibly more shopping than usual.  Please be careful about leaving shopping in your car and returning to the mall or other stores.  There are criminals who watch specifically for this.  It's a good idea to actually move your car to another parking spot or see if there is a "checking service" where you are shopping.  Please be extra vigilant about removing EVERYTHING from your vehicle when you get home so that you do not become a victim of "Theft from Vehicle".  Remember to lock the doors and windows and DO NOT leave garage door openers in your vehicle.  This could lead to entry into your home. 
 
At this time of year, remember to keep a front porch light on and consider motion detector lights in your carport, garage and backyard areas.  Thieves will look for the darker homes so they can't be seen.  Go outside at night and look at your home to ensure that your address is clearly visible from the street.  If you should ever need emergency assistance you want to be certain your address is visible and responders can find you. 
 
Thanks for reading and keep safe out there!

Hello everyone, sharing with you the latest Candian Home Sales figures for August 2014.


So, how do our North Vancouver micro markets compare? While the overall Canadian market sits in balanced territory, sales of our single family detached homes sit firmly in a Seller's market  - at 37.6% of listed homes selling. We've been performing this way for all of 2014, and there is every indication this isn't going to change this fall.  With active listing inventory below last year, now is a great time to sell a house on the North Shore.


(For reference a balanced market is 15%-20% of active listings selling, a Seller's >20%, and a buyer's market <15%) 


Here are some of the Canadian highlights:
