VICTORIA REAL ESTATE BOARD PRESIDENT
2011 Closes With a Stabilized Real Estate Market While the real estate market started out sluggish in 2011, unit sales stabilized by mid-summer. In December, sales for single family homes, townhomes and manufactured homes had increased over December 2010. Condominium sales decreased by 15% compared to last December, likely the result of an increased number of lower-priced single-family homes that became available. Overall, housing prices have softened since December 2010, when the average single family home sold for $647,063. In 2011, average prices fluctuated and now rest at $592,582, still quite high compared to the average of $534,411 seen during the first AVERAGE PRICES quarter of 2009. During the last Six Month December 2011 quarter of 2011, pricing was Average virtually unchanged month over month. Single-Family $592,582 $607,221 While we were trending towards a buyers’ market, based on both the prices and number of properties for sale, the decline in the number of active listings in December 2011 continues to reflect a balanced market. December 2011 saw 2,901 residential and 879 non-residential active listings (total 3,780), from a peak of over 4,178 residential and 916 non-residential listings (5,094) in July 2011. This is the first time the number of active listings has been fewer than 4,000 since February 2011. MLS® sales last month included 183 single family homes, 89 condominiums, 37 townhomes and 11 manufactured homes, totaling 320 residential sales.

Frequently, people who attempt to sell their home without the help of a REALTORÂŽ do so in hopes of saving the commission or fee. There is a good chance, however, that such an approach will not pay off as potential buyers will often submit lower offers in such cases. In addition, without the help of a REALTORÂŽ and access to the Multiple Listing ServiceÂŽ (MLSÂŽ) it will likely take significantly longer to sell your home. The MLSÂŽ is best described as a co-operative marketing system to ensure maximum exposure of properties for sale. Fundamentally, it is a central registry of properties used by REALTORSÂŽ to match buyers with properties for sale.

Before attempting to sell your own home, ask yourself the following questions: 1. Do you have sufficient knowledge to determine the price range for your home? Are you aware of changing market conditions and of recent sales of similar homes in your area? 2. Do you have the skills and resources to advertise and market your home effectively? 3. Do you know what types of financing are available? Are you informed about various financing methods? 4. Do you have a network of contacts to produce potential buyers and are you able to screen out unqualified prospects -- people who are just curious? Are you comfortable inviting strangers into your home at 9 p.m. because they saw your sign? 5. Are you available seven days a week to show your home? (Buyers will expect you to be available at their convenience, not yours). 6. Do you have good negotiating skills? Are you comfortable haggling face-to-face over the price? Will you be ready to reveal known defects of your home and are you familiar with your legal obligations in this regard? 7. Can you write a legally binding contract? Do you have offer forms readily available? Do you have a lawyer to advise you on essential terms that must be in the contract? 8. Can you close a sale? Are you familiar with the many steps required after an offer has been accepted?
If you are tired of renting and have always wanted a home of your own, now is an excellent time to take the home ownership plunge. Attractive mortgage interest rates, government incentive programs and an excellent supply of homes for sale are making the dream of home ownership possible for more would-be buyers.
You may want to take advantage of the RRSP Home Buyers’ Plan. The program allows you to use your Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) contributions (up to $20,000 per person, $40,000 per couple) to buy or build a home. You must be a firsttime buyer or at least not have owned a principal residence for four consecutive years in order to qualify under the plan. Remember, no income tax is deducted from these funds as long as they are repaid to an RRSP according to the government’s repayment schedule.

A number of different mortgage options are available. Under a conventional mortgage, lenders will loan you up to 75 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 25 per cent yourself. If you don’t have the 25 per cent down payment, a high-ratio mortgage may be available that could provide most of the required funds. The proviso is that high-ratio 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 will be paying more per month in interest; if rates drop, you will be paying more off your principal. Fixed-rate mortgages, on the other hand, maintain the same rate of interest over the entire negotiated term.
Examine Your Needs It is never too early to start considering where you would like to live and the type of house that best suits your needs. This is where a REALTORŽ’s services prove invaluable. REALTORSŽ have access to the Multiple Listing ServiceŽ (MLSŽ) which is a co-operative listing system that offers maximum exposure of homes listed for sale. A REALTORŽ can help you zero in on the type of home you want with a quick search on the computer. Once you have defined a few key parameters like price, location and number of bathrooms, a REALTORŽ can provide you with a customized list to assist you in your search. Defining your focus is important because there are plenty of housing options available in the Greater Victoria area. You will have to choose the property that is right for you from among new houses, resale homes, townhouses and condominiums. A REALTORŽ is a highly trained professional who can help you choose the one that best suits your current and projected lifestyle. A REALTORŽ will accompany you as you view homes and provide you with all the pertinent information to make an informed decision. So, if you are ready for home ownership, now is a good time. Many Canadians would agree that owning a home is one of the best investments you can make and helps provide financial security for retirement.

ARRANGING
a Mortgage 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.
Other Terms There are some other concepts to bear in mind.
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. 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 high-ratio 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.

Creating Curb Appeal
Can Help Sell Your Home What's curb appeal? It's that certain something about your home that catches the eye of the passerby and makes them want to take a closer look. If you're selling your home, curb appeal can quickly draw prospective buyers in for the first time. Without it, buyers may pass up on the chance to see inside and will miss what might have been the perfect home for them. Your REALTOR® can give you numerous tips and suggestions to help you make that first impression really count. Here are a few ideas. Keep your lawns neatly trimmed and edged. Trim trees and shrubbery to get rid of overhanging branches that might obscure a potentially good view of your home, or pathway leading to the front door. Turn over the soil in your flowerbeds. If there's little color in your front garden, make a splash with a display of inexpensive annuals, flower boxes and wooden tubs. Clay and plastic posts can also be filled with flowers and small shrubs and displayed in the yard or by the front entrance to give the feel of a warm welcome. Birdhouses and feeders, dried flower wreaths and hanging baskets on the front porch can give your home countryside curb appeal. Keep your porch, driveway and front yard clutter free. Remove garbage bins as soon as possible after pick-up, and avoid any build-up of junk mail. Repair or replace broken steps or walkways. You might be used to the uneven paving or rickety stairs outside your home, but they could be hazardous to visitors, as well as unsightly. Your home's roof, chimney and exterior should look sound and well-cared for. Freshly painted woodwork is often well worth the time and money invested in it.
A good spruce-up can make a big difference If painting is unnecessary, your home will still benefit from a good spruce-up. Wash down window frames and clean your windows to make them sparkle. Scrub the front door and polish the house numbers, letterbox, doorknob and knocker. Open blinds, curtains or shutters to give your home an inviting, welcoming look. These are just a sample of some of the ways you can create curb appeal. Your REALTOR® can give you many other, customized tips to make the most of your home's unique charm. In addition, your REALTOR® can offer an objective view of any repairs and improvements that might be necessary to enhance the likelihood of selling your home. Creating curb appeal may just be the feature that sets your home apart from the rest. This article is provided by the Victoria Real Estate Board.
