The Current Real Estate Market... HAVE WE HIT BOTTOM? ...or have you missed it?

``Only buy something that you`d be perfectly happy to hold if the market shut down for 10 years.`` -Warren Buffet

Are you noticing more SOLD stickers in your neighbourhood or perhaps along your daily travel routes? We are experiencing more showings being scheduled, more offers being presented and thank goodness more sales being consummated. Buyers are again arriving from other provinces, this time to make those choices that they have been shopping for, over the past 2 years. Condos and Town homes are currently selling at prices we experienced in 2006 and 2007. The press reports prices dropping 10-15%. The fact is we, working the “Front Line” of Real Estate, know that prices have dropped. It's a fact that started occurring 6 months ago. The recovery in activity and sales is already occurring; but the numbers may not be reported for another 60 days. Reports are generated after tallies and closings. These facts take time to become history, so that they can be reported. If you are seriously wanting to make a move – you may miss the bottom; but its an ideal time to secure your next Real Estate acquisition.
