Shelley Mann
VICTORIA REAL ESTATE BOARD PRESIDENT
Greater Victoria Residential Real Estate Transitions To A Balanced Market At the Victoria Real Estate Board, we are cautiously optimistic that Greater Victoria residential real estate is back into a balanced market, marking the best April since 2010.
AVERAGE PRICES
Consumer confidence is increasing. The total number of sales for April was 615, a 5% increase compared to April 2012 with 586 sales. On the residential side, more properties are selling, and slightly fewer are entering the market, so we are moving from a buyers’ market to more balanced market conditions.
April 2013
One word of caution: one month doesn’t indicate a market trend, but I am encouraged by increased showings by REALTORS®, the number of sales, and comments from other REALTORS® who tell me about multiple offers on properties. Prices remained relatively flat, as predicted by Cameron Muir, Chief Economist of the BC Real Estate Association. There were 367 single family homes sold in April at a median price of $540,000, a 16% increase in the number of homes sold over April 2012. Condominium sales were 149 at a median price of $265,000 and 62 townhomes sold at a median price of $415,450. There were 4,585 listings active at the end of April.

MOVING UP IN THE HOUSING MARKET as the prospect of moving into a bigger and better home been H 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.

5. Saanich East 6. Saanich West 7. *Central Saanich 8. *North Saanich
9. *Sidney 10. Highlands 11. West Shore 12. View Royal
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.
* These areas are grouped under Saanich Peninsula
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.

When your home is for sale, it’s often more than just the purchase price and location that will make or break a deal. Making your home look its very best and presenting it as a desirable place to live are also very important.

Cleaning Up The Homestead Virtually all buyers are on the lookout for one thing — a clean home. Many will simply walk away if a home looks uncared for and, at the very least, an untidy home will fetch a lower selling price. Ensure your home is spotless and free of clutter. The two most important rooms in a buyer’s mind are the kitchen and the bathroom. Pay particular attention to these areas — they should sparkle and shine.

Usually, most renovations do not translate into an increase in selling price of more than the cost of the renovations themselves. Painting, wall-papering and modest landscape improvements usually recover their costs, but major projects such as new patios, decks or additions rarely do.

Other areas may not need major repairs but will need attention. These can include leaky faucets, holes in window screens and any broken glass, etc. If some of your walls are too dirty to come clean, you may wish to consider a paint job. Carpets and rugs should also be clean and in good repair. Take a close look at the state of your yard. If you are showing your home in the summer, trees and shrubs should be pruned and your lawn kept neat. In the fall, rake leaves regularly and in the winter ensure the walks and driveway are kept clear of any snow or ice.
