For years, the real estate market in B.C.'s Lower Mainland acted a lot like the mythical perpetual motion machine.
Buyers were jumping into the market because prices were rising and, hey, why miss out on the capital-gains fun? So sales jumped, and bidding wars ensued, sending prices a little further up into the stratosphere – and luring more buyers into the market. The mere fact that prices were rising far above historical rates, and well beyond any rational measure of affordability, was of no consequence.
Of no consequence, that is, until last summer, when prices started to edge downward, and the wheels of the great B.C. perpetual motion machine stopped spinning. A tiny drop in average prices – 2.3 per cent between May and August – coincided with an enormous drop in volume. The drop in the volume of sales accelerated through the winter.
Vancouver house prices make it top city for personal net worth
VANCOUVER — Metro Vancouver households were the wealthiest in Canada in 2007. But with falling house prices, the gap between Metro and other cities is getting smaller, according to a study released Tuesday by Pitney Bowes Business Insight.
Average household net worth of those living in the Vancouver census metropolitan area (CMA) was $592,851, followed by the Toronto CMA at $562,173.
The average household wealth of those living in Victoria, the only other B.C. city on the list, was $544,542, fourth highest after third-place Calgary.
If $592,851 sounds like more than what most of us are worth, that’s not surprising.
VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) - It just got a lot easier to decide where to put your real estate investment dollars in B.C. The Real Estate Investment Network (REIN) has released a new report on the best places to buy. After looking at the numbers and what's available, Surrey came out on top, followed by Maple Ridge/Pitt Meadows, Abbotsford and Kamloops.
Don Campbell with the REIN says they come up with the list by looking for a number of different things. "Everything from economic potential...we're looking for average income growth... average population growth...we're looking for leadership in a city that's actually bringing businesses and jobs in."
The average days on market for homes selling in February was 32 days, a 10-day improvement over January and only a week off February 2008, when more brisk conditions prevailed, she said.
"Contrast our 32 days in February to Vancouver's 67-day average days on market, and we should not feel overly concerned about our current market situation," she added.
The slower sales last month, however, have the inventory at the end of the month 58 per cent higher than the same period last year.
VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) - There is some good news in the real estate market. Sales were up a bit last month. Numbers from the BC Real Estate Association show sales jumped 17 per cent from January to February.
The Association credits low prices and historic low interest rates for the increase. Sales are still off by half from a year ago, and the value of properties listed on MLS is also down 50-per cent from February of 2008.
