Sales are continuing to struggle in this tight economy. Paired with stricter lending rules that are making it more difficult for people to get approved for a mortgage following  a stress test, the Calgary market is not thriving. Supply levels have also not changed, which is putting more pressure on sale prices. Despite all of this, we are optimistic that now that the snow has melted and the spring market is in full swing, things will start to get better. 

CREB® chief economist Ann-Marie Lurie says, "Slower sales do not come as a surprise, given the economy has not yet improved enough to offset the impact of changes in the lending industry. While the rising inventories are being monitored, prices have remained relatively flat as gains in some areas of…

When you are preparing to sell your home, getting a CMA is crucial in determining the worth of your home and what a good asking price will be. So what is a CMA?

CMA stands for Comparative Market Analysis. A CMA is used by realtors to calculate the market value of a property they are selling before they list it. As a homeowner, you may have some idea of what your home is worth based on your own knowledge of the area and property itself. However, we highly suggest you have a real estate professional, such as ourselves, complete an official CMA for you. It will be your second greatest asset in the selling process; the first greatest asset being us, your real estate agent!

A lot goes into a CMA, such as:

The Calgary housing market in March went exactly as expected. Unfortunately, due to economy not yet being fully recovered and due to stricter lending rules, sales were slow and inventory rose. First quarter sales totaled 3,423 units, which was 24 per cent below long term averages and18 per cent below last year's stats. Months of supply have reached four months. 

The benchmark price for a detached home was $503,800, which may have been 3.6 per cent below highs before the recession, but was one per cent above the lows recorded during the recession. So, there is very modest improvement. 

"Economic conditions are slowly improving, but it has not been enough to outpace the current impact of higher lending rates and more stringent conditions,” said CREB®…
