Dennis Fimrite VICTORIA REAL ESTATE BOARD PRESIDENT
2010 – A Return to a Balanced Real Estate Market Last year was marked by a return to a balanced real estate market in the Greater Victoria area. Sales were strong in the early months of the year, then softened mid-year before regaining strength in the fall. A total of 6,546 homes and other properties sold in 2010 – a decline of 19 per cent compared to 2009 but almost the same number as the 6,519 sales in 2008. The value of all property transactions through the Victoria Real Estate Board’s Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) system also declined by 14 per cent to nearly $3.24 billion. While sales declined last year compared to 2009, overall average prices were stable and showed modest increases across major property types. The overall average price for single family homes increased by nearly 8.5 per cent; the average price for condominiums rose over four per cent and the average price for townhomes rose over three per cent. The return to balanced market conditions is good news for both buyers and sellers. We expect balanced market conditions to continue in the coming months and this will give both sellers and buyers a sense of stability when making important decisions regarding their future housing needs. Continued attractive mortgage rates will also contribute to a stable and balanced market.

The median price of all condominiums sold in December was $285,000; the median price of all townhomes sold last month was $415,000. MLS® sales last month included 181 single family homes, 105 condominiums, 29 townhomes and nine manufactured homes. The number of properties available for sale declined further in December to 3,252. However, this was still 25 per cent higher than a year earlier.

Your New Address: 137 Joseph Street $689,000 - New MLS The Heart of Fairfield Located on one of the quietest Fairfield streets, this beautiful 1912 home has retained the original Arts and Crafts character in the living and DRs that are so sought after. From the beamed ceilings and built in bookcases with the leaded doors, to the character FP and period light fixtures, you get the sense of a bygone era as you enter the home. But this home has modern touches too. The home was renovated extensively in the early 90s, with the addition of the office area/ sunroom at the rear of the home (new basement space under), new drywall on many of the walls and ceilings, recessed lighting, new stucco, marble and tile flooring and the new finishing in the basement level, adding two BRs, a four piece bathroom and the rec room... perfect family space. Two BRs on the main, two BRs in the lower and a bathroom on both levels, with the gas furnace and hot water tank upgraded at that time. And the present owners have just added a new fibreglass-asphalt roof, topping the long list of recent upgrades to this house. Shall we talk about location? One block from the ocean at Ross Bay about four blocks from Fairfield Plaza for shopping, about eight blocks to Beacon Hill Park or Cook Street Village and an easy bike ride to downtown or Oak Bay. And Joseph Street is among the quietest and prettiest streets in Fairfield.

Choosing not only the proper community, but also the right neighbourhood, can have a tremendous impact on your family's happiness and the value of your investment. The first thing many people do when considering a move is drive around various communities gaining a sense of which areas they like. Buyers find out how close the major highways are and if the neighbours keep their yards tidy. Most will make sure they know the location of the closest mall. But what about public transit, colleges, schools, libraries, parks, recreation centres and fire or ambulance stations? Is the local police station close to your prospective neighbourhood? All of these factors can make or break a decision to buy a certain property. Your REALTOR® can provide you with a wealth of general information on different neighbourhoods. For detailed information, it's a good idea to contact the appropriate agency directly.

Housing Market Has the prospect of moving into a bigger and better home been in your plans from the day you first bought your “starter” home? Well, now may be just the right time to make it happen. You may be surprised to learn that the cost of moving up is within your means. The equity you have already built up in your current home can often be sufficient for the down payment for your next home. And, with today’s attractive mortgage rates, carrying charges need not be much larger than what you are paying now. A REALTOR® can help you calculate the carrying costs on a “move up” home.
CHANGING NEEDS The desire to move to a larger home is often the result of changing needs for you and your family. A new child is on the way and you need a nursery; the children are growing and need their own rooms and more space to play; you’re tired of scrambling for a place to park on the street and want your own driveway; you need more space to build a home office now that you are selfemployed; or maybe you just need a change of scenery. There are as many reasons as there are different lifestyles. Whatever your reasons, moving up to a new home can intensify the joys of home ownership. There are both practical and emotional results of moving up to a better home. On the practical side, the equity in your home will continue to grow and the value of a bigger and better home will be ultimately greater over time. On the emotional side, the pride of ownership in a bigger house will probably be even greater than when you bought your first home.
ASK A REALTOR FOR HELP As will every major decision, the key component is thoughtful planning. Your options can be confusing at times but a REALTOR® can help you make the right choices. Location, of course, will be one of the first choices you will need to make. There are almost as many individual choices on location as there are homes. If you want to move closer to the urban core you can be sure that there is somebody out there who is just as eager to move to the suburbs. If you want a house on a bigger lot to enjoy gardening, there’s someone looking for a smaller lot which requires less maintenance. With access to the Multiple Listing Service®) (MLS® ), a REALTOR® can not only help you sell your present home for the best price possible, but also provide you with a customized list of homes for sale that meet your needs, wants and budget. He or she can then arrange for you to view the homes that appeal to you the most. If you are thinking of moving up to meet changes in circumstances and lifestyle, contact a REALTOR® today for expert advice.

Now is a great time to consider buying a home. Interest rates are very attractive and there is a wide choice of homes available to suit various budgets. Still, it’s most likely you will have to deal with financing and this will mean taking on a mortgage. Sorting through the numerous mortgage options available to today’s homebuyers can be intimidating, but professional help is readily available. Your REALTOR® can offer you invaluable information along with your financial institution’s mortgage specialist and other advisors. First, it’s necessary to know which kinds of institutions will lend you money. Banks and trust companies lead the pack, but credit unions, mortgage companies and private lenders also offer funds. There is also the option of consulting a mortgage broker.
Different Mortgages

A number of different mortgage options are available. Under a conventional mortgage, lenders will loan you up to 80 per cent of the appraised value or purchase price of the property (whichever is lower) to a maximum set by government regulation and you must come up with the remaining 20 per cent yourself.
Saturday 1-3 DFH Real Estate Ltd. Shanna Vargas 250-474-6003 pg. 25
If you don’t have the 20 per cent down payment, a high-ratio mortgage may be available that could provide most of the required funds. The proviso is that highratio mortgages must be insured and the cost falls to you. Check with your lending institution or mortgage broker to see whether you would be eligible for such a mortgage. Variable-rate mortgages are usually offered for both conventional and high-ratio mortgages. If interest rates climb, you may be paying more per month in interest; if rates drop, you may be paying more off your principal. Fixed-rate mortgages, on the other hand, maintain the same rate of interest over the entire negotiated term.

Amortization refers to the time period in which the mortgage is assumed to be paid. A common amortization period is 25 years. This means interest and principal are set as if you were paying the amount borrowed over a 25 year payment schedule. Obviously, the shorter the amortization period, the less interest you will pay. Prepayment privileges are very important for borrowers to consider. These allow you to pay money against the principal, reducing the total amount of interest you will ultimately pay. Buying or selling a home need not be a daunting task. Your REALTOR® can provide you with invaluable information on finances and all other aspects of the buying and selling process.
