Local ideas to cool C-K housing market The Chatham Voice
Ontario Realtors have met with Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne, Finance Minister Charles Sousa and Toronto Mayor John Tory over the last several weeks to make sure that the dream of home ownership stays within reach. Chatham-Kent Realtors have also met with local municipal officials asking for more land to be freed up in order to allow for more affordable options
to local home buyers. “The measures that will most impact Chatham-Kent are creating affordable new housing supply. It is critical that the government tackle the issue of housing supply and continues to take action to get more homes built so young families have more options,” said Kristi Willder President of Chatham-Kent Association of Realtors. “Specifically, realtors have asked the govern-
ment to look at ways to get more vacant land and properties to market and to create a Housing Advisory Group to provide advice and ideas about getting more supply to market.” Recent stats show the number of listings tripled the number of sales in Chatham-Kent, so this may eventually balance itself out on its own, Willder said. CKAR gives credit to the government and hopes
An Evening Of Comedy to hit the stage April 27-May 5 The Chatham Voice
Theatre Kent is presenting its final show of the current season from April 27 to 29 and May 5 and 6 at 7:30 p.m. in Studio One of the Chatham Cultural Centre (CCC). An Evening Of Comedy is a collection of three one-act plays, each with its own director and cast, and each serving up its own brand of humour. Producer Tim Luimes said the group is excited about the show as it provides “something for everybody,” and is being presented in the intimate studio setting. Complimentary refreshments will be provided, along with a cash bar. Luimes said the group saw great success with this format earlier this year when the group
presented the drama Proof. The three shows that make up An Evening Of Comedy are: • This Is A Play, directed by Jan Walker-Holt and featuring Karen Robinet, Bayleigh Fraser, Erik Shaw and Luimes. Holt called the show “a play within a play, about lettuce,” and added it is “a director’s – and actor’s – dream.” • Something Rotten In Denmark is being directed by Eric Bristow with a cast made up of Steven Reinhardus, Bill Tye, Linda Schinkel, Jen McMonnies, Melissa Bristow and Tony Erdelyi. Bristow said he and the cast have been enjoying the rehearsal process and are looking forward to putting the show in front of an audience. • Much Ado About Nothing (Abridged Version) is direct-
it makes a full review of REBBA in order to raise the standards of Ontario’s real estate professionals. They agree with investigating the practice of double-ending and are happy to participate in this conversation. Part of the solution is to give stiffer penalties to those who break the rules, and to educate the public on the real estate transaction. CKAR has committed to ads in The Chatham Voice regarding the purchase and sale of a
A: The short answer is no. Although these values can sometimes be the same, they can also be vastly different. The value the buyer applies to the property can differ from the value a seller or lender places on it. The seller, buyer and lender have to find an agreeable value in order for the transaction to proceed. This can be accomplished when the market value and appraised value are close to each
said. Lastly, as far as the foreign buyers’ tax, most recently a survey showed that onethird of homes purchased in Chatham-Kent were from out-of-town buyers. Almost all of these were people living in Ontario. So while the glut of GTA and surrounding area residents are cashing out and moving here, the number of foreign investors is statistically insignificant, therefore this will not affect Chatham-Kent.

Theatre Kent’s show An Evening Of Comedy is being put together by three funny directors, from left, Erin Kys, Eric Bristow and Jan-Walker Holt. The show opens at the Cultural Centre on April 27 and runs until May 6.
ed by Erin Kys and stars Mark Stacey, Christine Folan, Nathan Johnson, Robyn Brady, Mindy Bowls, Tori Valentine, Kristal Hooyer, Sarah Charbonneau, Lee-Ann MacNeil, Alexander Brooks, Zoë Burbank, Darla Ouellette and Christy Obalek. Kys said the show is the tale of, “two pairs of lovers with very different takes on romance.” She said this is one of William Shakespeare’s most popular
other. Market Value This is the amount that potential buyers would be willing to spend on the property. A seller can establish a list price, but that might not be what buyers are willing to pay. In a competitive market, buyers may feel it’s worth more, and in a weaker market where supply is plentiful they may feel it’s worth less. Appraised Value When a buyer goes to a lender for financing on a property, the lender
comedies abridged to one act that contains love, jealousy, revenge, deceit and “a lot of sass!” Kys added that, “as a first time director, I could not have asked for a better cast. “We’ve all been working hard, but also having a lot of fun with this show. I can’t wait for everyone to see what an amazing job they do bringing this modern take to life.” Tickets for An Evening of
Comedy are available through the CCC box office, online at CKtickets.com or by calling the box office at 519-354-8338. Tickets are $20.25 for adults and $18.25 for students and seniors. A limited number of tickets may be available on show nights when the doors open at 7 p.m., but Luimes recommends patrons purchase their tickets in advance to avoid disappointment.

Real Estate FAQ’s Q: Are market value and an appraisal the same thing?
home. Regarding the double ending issue; with multiple offers becoming more prevalent in Chatham-Kent, this issue may have local impact. The province has committed to reviewing the practice of multiple representations and double ending and we’re happy to participate in that conversation. “It’s important to note that when the rules are followed, the practice works very well,” Willder
takes several factors into consideration when determining a value and may hire an appraiser. The info collected could include type of neighbourhood, recent sales on similar properties, and viewing the property for an inspection of fixtures, finishes and conditions. Through a combination of factors and information, they determine the appraised value. This is the value on which the lender will determine whether to proceed with financing of the buyer through credit worthiness.
Market Value vs. Appraised Value The market value of a property is the amount a buyer is willing to pay, not the value placed on the property by the seller. For example, a seller might list a property for $170,000, but if buyers are only willing to pay $155,000, then the market value is $155,000. Conversely, if property listed at $250,000 has several buyers interested, the market value can meet or exceed the listed price. Appraised value is the value the interested buyer’s bank or mortgage company
places on the property. What if they’re very different? A large gap between the appraised value and the asking price can be a problem for the buyer. If the lender thinks the appraised value of the property is not enough to cover the requested mortgage, the lender could require a larger down payment, which can be problematic for a buyer because it could require additional funds. It’s ideal when the appraised value is equal to or higher than the market value.
