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:
"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.
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
