Edmonton Journal Reports, Ignorance Is A Pitfall In Real Estate. Really?
The latest Canadian real estate news:
Edmonton Journal Reports, ignorance is a pitfall in real estate. Really?
When you line up around a block with 200 people to buy the condo in the sky that doesn't exist yet, put $20,000 down and plan to sell it as soon as it's built, look in the lineup and tell me how many people have the exact same mentality. Then all you need is for one guy to panic and drop his price to get out, and the average price in the whole building goes down, and you're completely at the whim of somebody else. You should only line up for U2 tickets. Article.
BMO reports slower housing growth, thus more afforability.
While new home prices should remain strong in 2008, the pace of growth will continue to moderate to about 2% to 3%. Article.

Canadian Real Estate Is Not On The Same Path As The US
Do not be afraid of what is happening in the US with regards to real estate, Canada is not the same economic environment. Canadian real estate can expect to stay much stronger than the faltering US sector.
Canada's real estate sector fundamentals are stronger than those in the U.S., said Ed Boomer, managing director of Canadian operations for U.S.-based shopping centre owner and operator Kimco Realty Corp.
"I don't think we're becoming anxious about the Canadian real estate market," he said. "If you're a well-placed, cash-based opportunistic player I think you can do very well."
Some areas of weakness include hard-hit manufacturing centres, where industrial and retail properties may not be the best assets to invest in, Mr. Boomer said. Article.
US real estate is being hit hard with problems in the financial sector. In the next 36 months the US is going to see a very high mortgage default rate, making many properties available for cheap, this will not be the case in Canada.

Canadian Real Estate Sets Another Record
Real Estate in Canada has set new levels for sales ina year by sales volume and dollar amount.
Canadian real-estate markets clinch early record
Derek Abma, CanWest News Service Published: Monday, December 17, 2007
OTTAWA -- With one month's activity still unaccounted for, the Canadian Real Estate Association said Monday that listed residential real-estate transactions in most major markets are already at record levels.
Data from the country's 25 biggest markets show 345,577 sales of existing homes in November through the Multiple Listing Service (MLS), which is 2.7% ahead of the previous record of 336,646 sales in 2005.
There was a seasonally adjusted level of 29,992 sales last month, up 3.2% from October. This was driven by increased activity in Vancouver, Toronto, Edmonton, Calgary and Saskatoon, CREA said. On an unadjusted basis, November sales were up 7.6% from a year earlier.
A monthly record for sales was reached in Newfoundland and Labrador, the second-highest number of monthly sales was recorded in Saskatoon and Regina, and Vancouver and Toronto both had their third-most sales ever in November.
"Sales activity continues to run strong, even if it is off its peak set earlier this year in nearly all major markets," CREA chief economist Gregory Klump said in a statement. "Demand remains strong due to continuing job and income growth, and upbeat consumer confidence. That is helping retain a seller's market in most major markets."
The average sale price was $332,807 last month, up 11.6% from a year earlier. That marked the seventh-straight month that prices were up more than 10%. Average-price records were set in Montreal, Quebec City, Victoria and Kitchener-Waterloo, Ont.
BMO Capital Markets Economics said these numbers "show that resale activity barely blinked in the face of the severe credit squalls in the fall." Financial Post Article.

A Nation Wide FSBO Company Is Expanding Efforts In Western Canada
A nation wide FSBO company is expanding efforts in Western Canada, at twice the price of Snap Up Real Estate. Canadian real estate is currently home to many 'for sale by owner' companies, DuProprio is one of the largest.
DuProprio has representatives in the Maritimes, Manitoba and B.C., but is waiting before jumping into Alberta, where two competitors are already active. Online services WeList.com and comfree.com are active in several Canadian provinces. For sellers, the website works like this: they pay a flat fee up front that varies according to location and type of property. The average fee is $400. (This will rise to $500 next year.) That fee buys sellers a website listing of six months to one year, depending on the type of property, and photos taken by a professional.Sellers get a customized poster for their lawn and online tools to help them write a description, prepare their home for sale and negotiate. A DuProprio sales representative visits about 90 per cent of clients to help set up a listing. Bouchard and his team talk to clients and the public through their blog. Article.
The expansion of 'For Sale By Owner' real estate transactions is growing, which is good for economic diversity.
