IS NOW A GOOD TIME TO BUY A HOME?

Solid built level entry home with walkout basement, and a totally self-contained suite (unauthorized). This well kept, clean home has numerous features, such as; hardwood floors, gas fireplaces, jetted tub, large basement workshop, and a bright, full height 1 bedroom suite that is a bit more upscale than most. There are 3 bedrooms on the main level, and a cozy family-room area off the kitchen that looks out over the private backyard.

If you’re tired of renting and have always wanted a home you could call your own, but thought the opportunity was just beyond your reach because of economic factors, here are some things to consider.

1273 Saturna Drive $499,900 It doesn’t get much better then this! Ocean view, level entry home with full walkout basement backing onto a wonderful duck pond, all on one of the best locations in Craig Bay right next to an open park like area. 3 generous sized bedrooms, 2 with full ensuites. 2 family room areas one off the kitchen area, the other would make a great media room on the lower level. Quality finishing throughout, recently painted, nothing to do but kick back & enjoy the view from the large deck, or take part in the clubhouse activities, swimming pool, hot tub, tennis, & fitness facilities.

In a recent report put out by the British Columbia Real Estate Association (BCREA) it was suggested that perhaps Home Buyer’s were in the driver’s seat. Cameron Muir, BCREA Chief Economist said, “A relatively large number of homes for sale have created the most favourable supply conditions for home buyers in more than a year.” The silver-lining in the lacklustre economic outlook is that the normalization of both short-term and long-term interest rates will be deferred. BC households with variable rate mortgages will therefore be facing lower payments than we would have originally predicted at the beginning of the year.

6 Machleary Street $259,900 Close to Bowen Park, this Character style home would be a great location to call home. Large open kitchen with a cute cozy eating nook, that opens to the old style living room complete with original fir floors and coved ceiling. There are 2 bedrooms on the main floor and an additional 3rd bedroom in the loft. Loads of potential in this home, the main level windows have been replaced with thermo panes, and there is a walkout level 6’ basement ideal for a workshop or storage.

Moreover, new homebuyers or homeowners set to renew their mortgages will be offered a second chance at securing rates at levels last seen at the depths of the ¿nancial crisis.

926 Crace Street $399,000 COMMERCIAL-CHARACTER VIEW. Original condition intact with, inlaid oak floors, leaded glass, plaster coved ceilings, period fixtures, exceptional ocean view, huge lot. Commercial C-27 zoning provides a multiplicity of uses. Steps to shopping, transportation, seawall and more.

The BCREA mortgage rate forecast is for a continuation of the current low-rate environment into early 2011. At that time prompted by a new round of tightening by the Bank of Canada and (hopefully) brighter economic prospects, interest rates will renew their ascendency to historical norms but at a measured pace.

#412-150 Promenade Drive

The one year ¿xed mortgage rate is forecasted to ¿nish 2010 at around 3.20% and to reach 4.05% by the end of 2011. The ¿ve year ¿xed mortgage rate is forecasted to end the year at 5.35% and to reach 6.10% by the end of 2011. With a good supply of homes to choose from and continued historically low interest rates this could be as good a time as any buy a home.

410 Victoria Road $268,000 Spotless clean & updated Character home that will surprise you with its charm. High ceilings in the living room and bedrooms add an old-world scale to the rooms. There is an almost finished attic space that would make a great den or study off the living room, and a large undeveloped 6’ high basement for loads of storage. The kitchen and adjacent mud/laundry room are also large scaled. One unique feature is that both bedrooms have their own ensuites. Almost everything has been updated in this home including windows, furnace, appliances, etc. The yard is very private and features a new solid fence along with numerous newly planted trees & shrubs; there is lane access available too.
