EDMONTON’S HOUSING MARKET READY TO “PUSH UP” SAYS ANALYST

Friday, March 29th, 2013

Edmonton is the second-best market in the country to invest in housing, says real estate analyst Don Campbell.
“Population growth is strong, job growth is strong and things are supporting this market quite nicely, said Campbell, founding partner of the Real Estate Investment Network, a business that provides resources and information on real estate to members.
“It doesn’t look like it’s going to be another ‘07 where it just got into pure frenzy, but I think you’ll see late this year and early 2014 — which is a year behind Calgary as always — that the market will really start to push up.”
Home-buying demand will start taking off late this year while prices will begin rising next spring, Campbell says.
He bases that prediction on a formula where demand and prices come about 18 months after increased rents, which in turn follow decreased vacancies, increased demand for rental housing and growing population. All of those are triggered by earlier economic and job growth.

“We’re going to see a lot of listings come on during this year as well,” Campbell said, noting a current undersupply of listings.
Investors who bought too many properties in 2007, 2008 and 2009 will see the increased buying demand as a chance to sell, he said.
“The market’s barely moved in Edmonton as far as value. It’s a good window of opportunity before it starts to heat up again to get into the market. From an investment point of view, your rents are going up.”
He said when suites go vacant, landlords will raise rents by $150 to $200 per month.
“That will make renters think twice about renting rather than buying and that will happen over the next 12 or 18 months.”
Edmonton is second only to Calgary as the best place to invest in Canada in residential real estate. Campbell rates Hamilton as third because of its diversifying economy and job growth. Campbell was in Edmonton to promote his latest book The Little Book of Real Estate Investing in Canada. Royalties from the book go to Habitat for Humanity.

Mortgage Trend Shows That They are Going Up!

Tuesday, February 26th, 2013

This is the trend in the USA but we follow them fairly closely.

Can you say positive cashflow!!!

Can you say positive cashflow!!!

Can rent for as much as $2,500/month. 4 level split home that could be converted back to a single home by putting back the doorway separating the front and back. Asking only $389,900 with a newer double garage.

Low Listing to Sales Ratio Puts Upward Pressure on Edmonton Real Estate Valuations

Wednesday, May 30th, 2012

The month of May is almost over and a review of the number of listings and sales of single family homes in Edmonton proper show a very robust market.

Currently there are 3,094 single family homes listed in Edmonton proper. That is a healthy level of inventory on the market giving buyers ample homes to choose from.

The number of sales has been on the rise. In the previous 30 days there have been 1,062 single family homes sold in Edmonton proper.

With this level of homes available for sale, and the number of sales that have taken place in the previous 30 days this would give us a listings to sales ratio of 2.91:1. This low of a level has not been seen for some time in Edmonton. Also with a ratio so much below the 4:1 that we need in Edmonton for a neutral or balanced market there is going to be substantial pressure for home valuations to rise.

Buyers should not put off buying a home before house prices go up any further.

Thursday, September 29th, 2011

With today’s interest rates being so low and the downward pressure on valuations right now I think this is an ideal time to buy before prices go back up as anticipated in the spring time.
