Comment on Metro Moncton Buyers Now Control The Local Real Estate Market

Larry Yatkowsky — Tue, 17 Aug 2010 02:15:42 GMT

Hi yah Lar: Aug 16/10 - it isn't necessarily so that buyers are doing the driving. There are a lot of issues still unresolved that will preclude this from happening in a big way. Prices though down, have still not attained a level of affordability that most buyers were hoping for. As well, there is a tensioned resistance that prevails which is subject to the BOC rates. If the stock market holds for the next while we can expect rates to climb. That will be enough to put buyers into the back seat for yet another undetermined period of time.

Phil, thanks for your comment and have yourself a great 2010.
Mark, thanks for commenting. Many former Atlantic Canadians are cashing out of their overheated housing markets and moving back to the east coast.

Hi Larry, I agree with you. Even in our overheated Mississauga and Toronto marketplace, there are many fundamentals that are solid and indicate that prices will stay strong.
I wish you on the east coast all the best in 2010!

Hi Larry,
Happy, Happy New Year. Yes, I agree 100% with your dignoses of our housing market. We are fortunate to live an area of little market fluctuations. Thus, affording us no bubble to burst. I believe Mocton, Fredericton and Saint John will experience a very favourable consistant market throughout 2010. What great news for our New Year. Only success and prosperity. Cheers, Phil.

Comment on October Residential Sales for Metro Moncton

Hi Larry,
I do love your graghs. Your market is quite parallel to Fredericton. Our year over year stats are about 1% to 2% more than last September/October.
It does look like the driving force for such good production is still the low interest rates. The rate certainly seems to be steering the positive market trend. Economists should be looking at this and leaving rates down as long as they continue to produce such favourable results.

It looks like a changing more active market is on the horizon. I predict good things for the 1st quarter of 2010.

Comment on Canada Day 2009 - No fireworks this year in the Metro Moncton real estate market

Wow, I thought that real estate was expensive here in the GTA, but you have us beat!

Do you find that your market is still increasing in price or have things leveled off a little?

Thanks again for your post and all the best!
