Welcome to another instalment of spring real estate in the Edmonton and Area. Sales are up. I have a few ideas why. I have written about 20 offers in the last 3 weeks in the Edmonton and Area (Sherwood Park, St. Albert, Fort Saskatchewan, Spruce Grove, and a bunch of Edmonton communities). I have been doing lots of house shopping lately and have a strong feel for the real estate pulse. Quality homes quality prices are getting tons of action. In fact I have been in 7 multiple offer situations recently.
My first guess is everyone who wanted to buy in March-May decided to take a break and see how things would unfold with the current health and economic climates in our market. This makes a lot of sense to me as some of my recent buyers are those who did exactly that. I also think this is a lot of folks who want to move (sell their homes) before any other changes in the market price and economic factors. Mortgage rates are as low as they have ever been. Just did a bunch of deals between 1.99 – 2.29%! (Mortgage Calculator – Mortgage Broker) Finally, there is a bunch of folks I have been dealing with that are selling their home as fast and cheap as possible to hedge their position in case things do drop in the fall/winter going into 2021. Either way people are buying. Do not be fooled though, there are properties that are very difficult to sell. No more important of a time to call me to discuss your market.

Hey everyone! This is a quick post with regards to the CMHC rule changes for July 2020. This will effect those obtaining an insured mortgage (under 20% down payment) after July 1. If you need to ensure this rule does not prevent you from purchasing your next home give me a call or reach out to Kris Crawford with Innovative Mortgage Solutions.
The other big mortgage insurance company, Genworth, is not changing their rules. When shopping for a home it is always best to talk to you bank and talk to a mortgage broker. Get the right advice and ensure the best deal possible!
Lots of great opportunity out there to find the perfect property! Any questions let me know! Check out my dream home finder – good place to start.
I want to let everyone know I am here to help. My full service real estate brokerage can help you navigate these changing times in our real estate economy. With everything going on in the world I think this is a good time to share with everyone how the real estate market has been effected. We are still busy out there but the truth of the matter is: sales are down, listings are down, activity has slowed in the overall real estate economy (and of course the economy in general). With such a drop is sales we will see a trickle effect on pricing and future motivation for buying in selling. I am going to quickly break down a few markets from last month and will do this again in another month. Time to really watch what is going on. If you are looking to buy sell or rent contact me today for the right advice!
