Real Estate Sales and Prices Soften in July A total of 523 homes and other properties sold in July through the Victoria Real Estate Board’s Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®), down from 618 sales in June but very close to the 527 sales in July of last year. Overall prices, meantime, declined somewhat across all major property types. Despite the drop in the number of sales last month compared to June, market activity is now very close to what we saw at this time last year. In the coming months, we anticipate that market activity will remain relatively stable and similar to what we saw during the summer and early fall months of 2010. The number of properties available for sale continued to increase at the end of last month with inventory levels currently 14 per cent higher than a year ago. There were 5,094 properties available for sale at the end of July, up slightly from the 5,050 properties available for sale at the end of June. The increasing inventory means sellers need to be realistic in pricing their homes in order to attract qualified buyers and a REALTOR’S® expertise can be invaluable in today’s market to help sellers price their homes to best advantage. The median price for single-family homes sold in Greater Victoria last month declined to $535,000. There were 13 single family home sales of over $1 million in July including two on the Gulf Islands. The median average price for condominiums last month also declined to $289,000 while the median price for all townhomes sold last month declined to $385,000. MLS® sales last month included 283 single family homes, 147 condominiums, 47 townhomes and 19 manufactured homes.

OMG What a Great Home! Open House Sun. 1-3 2493 Boompond Rd. Mill Bay This home was designed for a family and built by a master craftsman. The brilliant curb appeal extends through the entire home and yard. From the street the covered porch beckons. Upon opening the front door your eyes will open widely to admire ceilings that soar to 18 ft. The open kitchen, eating area, and family room are the heart of this home with light streaming in through large windows and skylight. All windows point to the totally private backyard and south-east facing spacious deck which adjoins to a forested park. Upstairs is a refuge of 3 beds and 2 well appointed baths. This tour gets very exciting when downstairs you realize a tournament of table tennis, foosball and pool could be happening at the same time in the 41 ft long recreation room. The tour was cool but the only way to really enjoy this home is to move in. Priced to sell at $599,900 MLS 297624

OCEANFRONT ARTISTRY One of the most important houses on Salt Spring, with remarkable provenance and unrivaled artistry created in concert by three generations of master craftsman, two uncompromising owners and an architect coaxed into collaboration nearly thirty years after his original commission. The result is a profoundly moving house that changes the rules of what constitutes suitably rustic style. Far beyond shelter, the 2 bedroom house blurs the boundary between decades of design. The raw sensuality of stripped-back materials has a surprising power, and the almost 3,000 sq.ft. house tips a finely tuned balance of complex angles and simple materials while humbly honouring the superior designer of its stunning waterfront site. www.sothebysrealty.ca

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.

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 self-employed; 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.

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.

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. This article is provided by the Victoria Real Estate Board.

the appliances, sink, cupboard space, counter tops, flooring, lighting and electrical outlets. Be sure to ask whether any or all of the appliances are included in the sale. It may be that a separate dining room, a family room and fireplace is important to you. Note also the size of the bedrooms and closet space and whether there are any window coverings or adjoining bathrooms. Also make note of the flooring and room colours. Make notes on the number and size of bathrooms and the conditions of the fixtures. Check all faucets and flush toilets to make sure they are in good working order and to see if there is adequate water pressure.

Exterior

Basement

Jot down your impressions of the exterior of the home, noting the lot size and shape, position of the home on the lot (facing north, south, east or west). Note the condition of the landscaping and whether the yard is fenced. Check the condition of the siding and note whether the home has an attached or detached garage. Be sure to take a good look at the roof and note its general condition and age. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also important to examine the foundation of the home for any visible cracks or holes.

Interior Note whether the home has a separate front hallway. Check the windows to ensure they open and close easily and note the general condition of the doors. The kitchen is an important room in any home, so pay attention to its size, the condition of

Check whether the basement is full or partial, finished or unfinished and whether there is adequate room for walking about. Note whether there is a utility area and whether the washer and dryer are being sold with the house. It is also very important to ask about the type of heating, water service, plumbing (copper or other), electrical amperage and insulation. Your REALTOR will be able to help you with questions you are unsure of. It is also a good idea to have a professional building inspector examine any home in which you are seriously interested.

“We selected the “Neal Estate Team” as our realtors because of your unique “guaranteed sale” plan. I don’t think you can put a price on the peace of mind we felt, knowing that our home would sell, in a reasonable length of time, for a fair price, no matter what. As you will remember, our home sold in about 3 weeks, and I think this was due to the fact that you had skillfully “read” the housing market, and accurately determined the highest price we could get for a quick sale. Ron, after all is said and done, the bottom line for us was RESULTS. We are satisfied customers and we’ve told our friends that if you want a dedicated, professional approach for a quick sale at a fair price, call Ron Neal! Thank you.” L. & S. Tyson
