VICTORIA REAL ESTATE BOARD PRESIDENT
Slow Growth Predicted for 2013 Real Estate Market
2013 Directors — Victoria Real Estate Board From left to right: Mike Nugent, Wendy Moreton, Kyle Kerr, Shelley Mann, Andrew Plank, Carol Crabb, Guy Crozier, Ara Balabanian, Tim Ayres. Shelley Mann, 2013 President of the Victoria Real Estate Board, says that economic indicators all predict slow growth for local real estate sales with modest price increases of just under 2%. “We saw the overall number of sales decrease by 10% in 2012, but prices remained relatively stable in all categories,” Mann notes. “When reviewing bank, CMHC and real estate association’s forecasts, we predict slow growth for 2013. While pricing always varies by specific neighbourhoods, overall we should see about a 1.8% increase.” Effective January 1, 2013, the Board of Directors is as follows: Executive Officers: Shelley Mann–President, Carol Crabb–Past President, Tim Ayres–President Elect, Kyle Kerr–Secretary Treasurer. Directors at Large: Ara Balabanian, Guy Crozier, Wendy Moreton, Mike Nugent and Andrew Plank.

Why Use a REALTOR? Buying, selling or leasing a home or other property is likely to be one of the most important financial decisions you will make. That's why it makes sense to have a trained, knowledgeable professional on your side who can give you expert guidance throughout the real estate transaction. The value a REALTOR brings to your next real estate transaction cannot be underestimated. In addition to access to the Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) that ensures properties for sale or lease receive the widest exposure possible, REALTORS can help take the stress out of buying, selling or leasing. This means you have more time to devote to other important matters. REALTORS are skilled negotiators who can qualify potential buyers and draw up enforceable contracts. Your REALTOR knows your neighbourhood -REALTORS assess market conditions and property values daily and have access to detailed market resources. Your REALTOR also has been educated on the complex laws and regulations affecting real estate and can give you valuable advice to help ensure your interests are protected.
