"CLOUDS LIFT OVER ECONOMY"

The last couple of notices/blogs that I have sent out have been very positive. During my open houses, buyers still are asking about the recovery from this mess that we were in. It wasn't even a mess but the media was exploiting in the U.S.A. I still believe that we needed to re-educate sellers as to the value of their property and educate our buyers as to the process of purchasing a home. Mortgage rates remain great. The government has come up with massive funding. Both of these are starting to bring life back into the economy. Consumer confidence is starting to rise, but we tend to be wary about the word from the Bank of Canada and government officials.

According to the Bank of Canada, the economy will contract 2.3% this year not as predicted a 3% decline. The bank forsees growth next year of 3% and I guess they can use their crystal balls to predict anything after that. Mississauga home sales/purchases has remained strong. With a little bit of the regular summer slow-down now upon us, homes are selling quite quickly if they are priced correctly. We are still seeing homes flying off the shelves and multiple offers keeping our inventory low with buyers jumping at anything new that comes on the market.

"Barring runaway inflation, central bank key interest rate of 0.25% will remain unchanged until mid-2010 to help spur a return to healthy business conditions," was stated by Bank Governor Mark Carney.

A Balanced Housing Market Emerges

"Recovery underway in key Canadian markets ends buyer dominance in resale housing," says RE/MAX Mississauga, ON. (July 13, 2009) - Pent-up demand for residential housing has bolstered sales in Canada's major markets-a clear signal that the housing sector has shifted into recovery mode, says RE/MAX.

A more balanced market has emerged. This has ended the stronghold that buyers have had on the market over the past six to eight months. Canada's largest markets, Toronto and Vancouver, led the charge - with June sales among the highest in history for both local real estate boards. Check out the Market Watch that's available. Major markets began to recover in March, and sales continued to escalate in April, May and June. This is expected to continue throughout the remainder of 2009, with most centres now forecasting year-end sales on par or ahead of 2008 levels.

"The strength of the market, amid the most significant global recession in recent history once again underscores its relevance to the nation's economic engine," says Michael Polzler, Executive Vice President, RE/MAX Ontario-Atlantic Canada. Canadians believe in homeownership -- a fact best illustrated by the purchasers who ventured forward in recent months and snapped up some of the best real estate deals this market has seen in years. Those who chose to sit it out on the sidelines are now facing a market in transition, characterized by the threat of rising interest rates, low inventory levels, and upward pressure on housing values."

Those who chose to consider my advice have been the lucky few. Those of you who have chosen to wait until "the prices of homes come down some more" , I'm afraid you are in for a rude awakening. We have multiple offers. Those homes that are priced well are not staying on the market for very long. Choices are few. Buyers are not having the chance to see something a second time. "If you like it, you better be prepared to work on an offer with you agent."

JUNE HOME SALES SOAR 27%

This was a great headline on the news and for anyone looking to either purchase or sell a home. The nay-sayers are saying that this won't last. These are the same guys that have said that the housing market is going to self-destruct just the way it did in the good old U.S. of A.

Multiple offers are back with a vengance. Frustrated buyers who haven't been taught the process of purchasing a home. Also, buyers who have not been advised to get their finances in order and discuss pre-approval for a mortgage cannot understand why they are losing the battle of home purchase. Interest rates remain low. Prices have risen, very little, but they have started a small climb.

In the middle of a "recession", we have gone from a Buyer's Market to a Seller's Market. Don't forget, we are now entering the "Summer Market" which is also a slower market. Sellers and buyers alike are more interested in the holiday season and enjoying the sunshine. Getting away and taking some time to ourselves is important to recharge our batteries.

CMHC are surprised at the rebound, but are not expecting it to last. As I have said before, we have to have to get our consumer confidence back. Once the job numbers start picking up, our confidence will start to return.

Prices have started to rise because of low interest rates and also there are fewer active listings from last year (fewer properties to choose from).

“The average resale home price has moved in line with last year’s level because of tighter market conditions experienced this Spring,” stated Jason Mercer, TREB’s Senior Manager of Market Analysis. “Home sales have increased strongly relative to new listings, bolstering home prices.”

Mississauga Real Estate, City of Mississauga

Mississauga enjoys many advantages because of its proximity to the big city. While some residents commute to neighbouring communities, the economy of Mississauga is strong and there are plenty of jobs within the community itself. Culture is also thriving with several theatres, orchestras, and art exhibits vying for the public’s attention.

Shopping in Mississauga is supreme and attracts consumers from far and wide. Square One is Ontario’s largest shopping mall. The Heartland Centre boasts the convenience of great stores in one place. Mississauga also provides easy access to neighbouring districts with its advanced infrastructure and transportation networks. It is also the home to Toronto’s International Airport.

Along with this close-to-the-action, city feel, one would expect high rent and housing costs, but in Mississauga the opposite couldn’t be more true. The cost of living in Mississauga has remained relatively stable and attracts many people to the area who enjoy city living but simply cannot afford it. Mississauga's housing market has remained relatively stable as homes are selling well. For information regarding this market, click here.

Another great advantage of Mississauga is that it still features many serene, outdoor attractions in spite of its city allure and is only minutes away from the countryside. The Credit River cuts through the heart of Mississauga and offers residents a chance to slow down and fish, walk, or cycle along the waterfront. The countryside of Caledon features golf courses, ski hills, rivers, and wilderness areas. This mix of city and country living makes Mississauga a perfect and logical choice for many diverse families.

For further information on Mississauga and it's different neighbourhoods and cultures, contact Betty directly at 416 427 1875. Let me help you find a home in the lovely city of Mississsuaga and surrounding areas.
