September 1, 2010 Wow, summer is flying by. It's hard to believe back-to-school season is just around the corner! I hope you are taking time to enjoy these last few weeks of summer before we are all back to regular routines. While the kids are getting settled back at school, I will be offering a series or short real estate seminars for buyers and sellers. Are you, or someone you know, thinking of buying or selling but don't know where to start? My introductory seminars will get you started on the right path. Please see the Seminar page for more details, location and registration - I hope to see you there. With the recent market slowdown, prices in Greater Victoria have moderated, interest rates remain low and there are plenty of homes on the market. As a potential buyer you have time to carefully consider your decision and look at all your options without ending up in multiple offer situations although well priced, well presented, well situated properties are still going quickly and the overall inventory is on the decline. If you are thinking of selling your home, although competition is moderating slightly with the total number of listings down from July, it’s still a good time to decide what makes your home unique and interesting to a potential purchaser and accentuate it. Now that we’re in a bit more of a Buyers market, you will need to showcase your home at it’s best to get the best price. Please browse my website for listings, reports and important information on the Victoria real estate market. I currently have several active listings on my "My Listings" page and some upcoming open houses – I look forward to meeting you. For immediate assistance please call me at (250) 477-7291 or toll free at 1-800-668-2272.
