4:41 التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احب4:41
التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبHere is why waiting for rates to adjust is not a winning strategy. Rates will go up, down or stay the same. But no matter WHAT they do, buyers who sit on the fence now may end up losing .
Lets take a look at how The numbers of sales and listings for houses and condos on August 1st, stack up against the previous month, and also against the previous year. For sales figures, we look at the sales that occurred during the month of July, but this year, and 2022. Currently in Winnipeg, we have 1282 houses listed and available on the MLS, That’s up from the 1196 on July 1st, and its actually VERY similar to the number of houses available on Aug 1st LAST YEAR, which was 1263. During the month of July, we sold 693 houses in Winnipeg, with an additional 17 still showing as ‘Pending’ so a potential total sales of 710. Compare that to the 843 sold in June, and you can see we’re down around 15% over the previous month. Even more important however, is comparing the stats year over year. So the number this year was 710, in in July ’22 that number was 789, so we are down 10% over last year as well. In addition, Winnipeg REALTORS reports that the average detached home price is up 2% from same period last year. During July we sold 8 homes at 1 million and more. The most expensive home sold was in Tuxedo at 4.7 million, and it only took 14 days on the market. To summarize the housing market, let me say this: The numbers of available listings are at a normal level, while sales are down 10 to 15%. Winnipeg is currently a much more buyer-friendly market, especially in the 250K to 500K range. Sales in THIS range are actually down 20%, which makes it a little easier for buyers to find and get a home. So now lets turn our attention to the condo market in Winnipeg. On august 1st, we have 369 Condos available for sale, which is up from the 349 on July 1st. This year’s 369 is very comparable to last years 365, so the amount of available inventory is pretty stable, year over year During July we sold 171 condos with another 13 showing as pending, so a potential total sale of 184 units. While that’s down 10% from the 206 we sold in June this year, its actually UP 10% from the 160 units we sold in July of LAST YEAR. This year, condos have been bucking the prevailing trend, and have outperformed houses in Winnipeg. I maintain that a 300K condo will be a nicer place than a similarly priced house. And with interest rates a little higher than we’ve been used to, condos offer a reasonably priced alternative to houses in Winnipeg.…
Is spring 2023 turning into a great 'Buyers Market'? When comparing listings and sales, year over year, there is no doubt that numbers are looking favorable for home and condo buyers in Winnipeg. Let's take a look at the stats of the month of April 22 and April 23. As we can see from the 'ALL MLS' graph, active available listings (all types of houses and condos) are up 70% over last year, same time. They are actually right in line with the 5-yr average of available listings (3,548) At the same time, property sales are down by 24% from last year...... as well as being down 17% from the 5 yr average. Detached Homes in Winnipeg The numbers for stand-along houses (detached homes) is even more telling. The active listings for the Winnipeg Real Estate Board area are 1,761, which is nearly double (+84%) of the active listings in April 2022, which were 956. At the same time, sales are off by 25% when compared to last year. So these numbers alone would suggest a nod towards a buyers market. Since there are MORE HOMES for sale, and FEWER sales happening, buyers overall face less competition, more choices and fewer bidding wars. But the story does not end there. Take a look at the average prices: Last year the average detached home sold for $447,295 while this year its $409,286, a drop of 9%. A third sign of a buyers market. Increased Inventory Lower buyer activity Lower home prices Attached Homes in Winnipeg How about the so-called attached homes. These are side-by-sides and townhomes. Home builders have been constructing these as an alternative for first time buyers. Since they use less land, and less building material, they are quite a bit cheaper to build. Let's see how those are faring: Here active listings are actually more than double, going from 122 in 2022 to 252 this year. Sales are off 28%, from 109 last year to 79 in April 2023. And prices are also down 28%, to an average of $326,995. So the story is very much the same as it is with detached homes.......more availability, less competition among buyers and lower prices to boot. Condominiums in Winnipeg Does the story repeat for condos in Winnipeg as well? Yes, but not the same extreme. The 484 available condominiums are a 42% increase over last year, which sales are off by 24%. Last April we sold 224 condos, whereas this year we only sold 171. However prices have remained fairly stable, dropping just 1% for the average sale, from $261,802 last year to $258,571 this year. What about interest rates? While all those numbers point to a more buyer-friendly environment, some folks point to the higher interest rates as a deterrent. Here is another way to look at this "Interest rates will go up and down, but the purchase price is forever." Unless you're lucky (or wealthy enough) to pay your mortgage off in 5 yrs, you will most likely have to re-new it a few times. Each time you will be subject to the current interest rates of the day. Your mortgage payment will, of course, be based on your current outstanding debt. And right now, you can buy a house for around 10% less than last year. PLUS have more homes to choose from, AND fewer bidding wars than last year. All of this adds up to an encouraging sign for home buyers. If you're interested in exploring your options, and see how much home your current pre-approval will buy for you, call me to set up a free buyer consultation.…

التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبHello…this is Bo Kauffmann of Remax in Winnipeg, with your real estate news for… Saturday, May 6h, 2023… Today is National Homebrew Day and International No Diet Day. As a home buyer, do you know the difference between being a customer and being a client? If you’re going to open houses or calling different agents asking them to show you their listings, you are a ‘customer’. The agent you are speaking with is required, by law, to do his best for his home-seller. As such, the agent only owes you honest answers to direct questions. The agent is actually required to tell his home-seller any information he learns about you. However, if you are working with your own home-buyer agent, you are now, in law, considered a client. YOUR agent owes you certain responsibilities and duties, such as protecting your privacy and financial interest. Here is the kicker: There is no monetary cost to being moving from being a customer, to becoming a client. Thinking of buying a house or condo?

Hello…this is Bo Kauffmann of Remax in Winnipeg, with your real estate news for… Sunday, April 30th, 2023… Today is, National Oatmeal cookie day, Nat. Bugs Bunny Day and National Adopt a shelter pet day Let’s give a shoutout to that last reference, the Shelter-Pet adoption day. Here in Winnipeg we are privileged to have Western Canada’s largest ‘for-life’ pet shelter in the form of D’Arcy’s Animal Rescue Centre, located at 730 Century St. In operation for over 22 yrs, D’arcys ARC has saved over 16,000 cats and dogs. As a registered charity, your donations are tax deductible, so please join me in supporting this wonderful cause. Winnipegs spring market, although delayed, is starting to heat up. Here are a couple of sales in the past week: 2 story home in River part south was listed at $400K and sold for 61K OVER asking. A side by side in All Seasons Estates sold for $320K, which was 30K over asking. A 900 ft bungalow in West Ft Garry sold for 77k over asking Even homes outside of the city are getting some love: 1300 ft bungalow near Ile Des Chenes on a 1 acre lot sold for 30K over asking. A common refrain I hear from buyers is: “I’ll never get involved in a bidding war”. Truth bomb: don’t kid yourself. If you go out and LOVE a house, most buyers would put in an offer and voila….you’re in a bidding war, like it or not. Who is winning these bidding wars? The buyers who are best prepared and ready to go. Call me right now to set up a free home buyer consultation, either in person or via zoom. 204-333-2202 Add us to your Daily Routine on Alexa .

Hello…this is Bo Kauffmann of Remax in Winnipeg, with your real estate news for… Monday, April 24th, 2023… Today is National Bucket List Day and Pics in a blanket Day Today, let’s talk a little about home staging. When hearing the word, a lot of people might envision a long, involved process, including movers, decorators and stagers. In reality, even a few touch ups and clean ups can make a huge impact. Over the next few days we’ll look at several areas where a little diy and elbow grease will go a long way to make a great first impression. For today, I’ll focus on an often forgotten aspect of staging…. Offensive odours: Odours are usually traced to any of 3 sources: Pet, smoking or cooking. The problem is that home owners often no longer notice these smells, as they get used to them. But a non-smoking buyer, for example, will immediately pick up on the distinctive smell of cigarettes or cigars. I just showed a house that had an overwhelming cat odor it was like a punch in the face stepping into the home. Adding to the problem is the fact that many listing agents just don’t feel comfortable addressing this issue head-on. How do you tell a home seller that their home has offensive odors? Doing so might cause the owner to go with a different agent, one who is more effusive and complimentary and tells the seller just how beautiful their home is. Take it from me….. offensive odors can cost you serious money in lost offers, and lowball offers. Thinking of selling? Call me right now to set up a free home seller consultation, either in person or via zoom. 204-333-2202 Add us to your Daily Routine on Alexa . Go here to add to Alexa in the Canadian Skill Store.

2:40 التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احب2:40
التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبHello…this is Bo Kauffmann of Remax in Winnipeg, with your real estate news for… Saturday, April 22nd, 2023… Today is National Jelly Bean Day and International Earth Day According to a new RateHub research, Canadians will need an annual income of $217,000 in Toronto to finance an average home. That’s a lot of jelly beans Even though the city's average home price has dropped by more than $200,000, the income required is actually 6,250 more than was required a year ago. According to RateHub co-CEO James Laird, Canadians now need to earn more money to buy a home due to rising interest rates and a 7.54 percent stress test rate. According to the survey, homebuyers in nine of ten Canadian cities must earn between $5,650 and $21,360 more in annual income than they did last year in order to afford a home. The only city where you can buy a home with less income than a year ago is Hamilton ONT, which requires nearly 5K LESS in annual income than a year ago. Reason is that Hamiltons average home dropped around 20% in value, which more than makes up for the rise in interest rates. Lets take a look at some of the cities in this report The average Vancouver home dropped by $119,600 March over March, but the income required rose by 21K to 221,220/year. Calgary got the double whammy. House prices went UP 5,600 on average (the only city with an increase in property values). Add the higher interest rates, and required income went from $91 to $110,000/year The only 2 cities in the report with home values below $400K where Edmonton and Winnipeg. In Edmonton, you need an annual income of just shy of $82K, while in Winnipeg, $75,650 is enough to buy an ‘average home’.. Thinking of buying?

Hello…this is Bo Kauffmann of Remax in Winnipeg, with your real estate news for… Thursday, April 20th, 2023… Today is National 420 Day, Volunteer Recog. Day and Nat. Cheddar Fries Day You may be wondering where the housing market will go from here as it continues to evolve. You've probably heard something about a price crash on the horizon in the news or on social media. According to a recent Zonda survey, 53% of millennials are still renting because they are waiting for property prices to fall. But here's the thing: according to the most current data, housing prices appear to have bottomed out and are now on the upswing. CoreLogic's Chief Economist, Selma Hepp, reports: "U.S. home prices rose by 0.8% in February... indicating that prices in most markets have already bottomed out." So, should you hold off on purchasing a property till prices fall? If you consider what the experts say, you probably shouldn't. According to the data, prices are rising rather than falling across much of the country. According to the most recent Home Price Expectation Survey data, experts predict that home prices will grow slowly and revert to more normal levels of appreciation after 2023. Working with a local real estate professional who can provide you with the most up-to-date information and expert advice is the best approach to understand what house values are doing in your region.

Hello…this is Bo Kauffmann of Remax in Winnipeg, with your real estate news for… Monday, April 17th, 2023… Today is National Crawfish Day and Bat appreciation day (the mammal, not the stick) Just a few weeks ago, we were wondering if cheap credit and government-led relief measures would stop Canada's real estate market from going down. According to figures from the Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA) that came out this morning, the benchmark home price went up a lot in March. Canadian Real Estate Prices Jump $12k Last month. In March, the average home went up 1.7%, or $12,300, to $727,700. It comes after a 1.0% rise (+$7,100) in February and is the second increase in a month since the correction started. Even though two months doesn't seem like much, it's enough to change the direction of the annual trend. In March, home prices dropped by 15.5%, or $133,300 as compared to last year. The 12-month drop is the biggest fall in CREA's benchmark's history. Since the standard only goes back to 2005, it's hard to say how this compares to the correction in the 1990s. At the same time, this might be the fastest rate of turnaround. Prices of properties don't move in a straight line, so it's too early to tell what will happen. For more on this report, go to https://boknows.homes/8c2f1d90 Here in Winnipeg, we should also focus on one figure that I just mentioned: The benchmark home in Canada sits at 727K??? Not around Winnipeg, where you can get a really nice, detached bungalow for about half that amount. In fact, I just listed a nice 1300 ft bungalow on an acre property just south of Ile des Chenes for $350K. Thinking of buying?

التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبHello…this is Bo Kauffmann of Remax in Winnipeg, with your real estate news for… Saturday, April 15th, 2023… Today is Nat. Laundlry Day, Glazed Spiral Ham Day and take a guess…..its Nat. Take a wild guess day Should you consider buying a brand-new condo? Wanna make some quick cash by buying pre-construction units? We’ve all heard the stories of real estate investors and speculators purchasing pre-construction condos in major markets such as Vancouver and Toronto. The story goes like this: They buy a $700K unit before they are even built, and at possession time, the units are worth 800K, 900k or even more. I know of some Vancouver investors who came to Winnipeg back in 2008 and tried that with a brand new condo building along wellington Cr. They were sorely disappointed when they tried to sell a year after possession and couldn’t even get their money back. Winnipeg’s new condo market can be compared to the new car market. We all know what happens when you drive your new car off the lot, right? Same thing happens to your brand new condo. Live in it for a year, and it’s no longer brand new, but if you try and sell, you’ll be up against other units in the same building, still being sold by the builder at the brand new prices. There really is only ONE situation when you should consider buying a brand new condo in Winnipeg: It’s when you plan on living in that unit for at least 6-10 years. Why? There is actually a drop in your value for the first couple of years, which should correct itself over time…..say 6-10 yrs. So if you are certain you’ll own and enjoy your new condo for at least that long…I say go for it. But if there is a chance you need to sell in the next 5 years, consider a resale condo, where the values have already stabilized. Thinking of buying?

Hello…this is Bo Kauffmann of Remax in Winnipeg, with your real estate news for… Friday, April 14th, 2023… Today is National Gardening Day, National Pecan Day and National Ex Spouse Day. Yesterday we opened up the Winnipeg Regional Real Estate Board Market report for March 2023, and saw that listings were up, sales were down, and prices of detached homes were down by 12% Total let’s look at attached homes and condos. First, attached homes which are side by sides and townhouse style buildings. Here, available listings are more than double the number last year, up 132% while sales are down around 31%, Prices have dropped around 6 % from an average of $349k to a little over $328. Itt should be noted that builders love to build these townhouse style homes because they are more cost-effective. The property size is smaller, and thus cheaper, and these 2, 3 and 4-piece units are cheaper to construct. Next, condominiums are in a similar boat. Numbers of available listings are up, although not as much as attached homes. Listings are up 35% and sales are down by the same 35%. Prices are also down 6% over last year, from an average 260K to just $245K. Condos also offer a great way to get into home ownership at a lower cost. However, BEFORE you buy a brand new construction condo, listen to my next episode as I will share a couple of thoughts on this topic. You are NOT going to want to miss this, so please listen BEFORE you make that type of decision. Thinking of buying?

التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبHello…this is Bo Kauffmann of Remax in Winnipeg, with your real estate news for… Thursday, April 13th, 2023… Today is National Peach Cobbler Day and National Scrabble Day The Winnipeg Regional Real Estate Board has just released it’s MLS stats for March. While sales and listings are on the increase when compared to the previous month, they still lag well behind the craziness of 2022. In March we saw a total of 1,014 MLS sales in total, which is down from the over 1400 in March last year, and also down from the 5 yr average, which sits at 1300 sales for that one month. The largest difference is in the sales and prices of stand-alone houses, called detached homes. Sales in March of 698 homes is down 28% from the same time last year, and 21% lower than the 5 yr average. As for prices, the average detached home sold for $386,800, which is down 12% from the average last year, which sat at $439.900. Active listings in this type of home are up over double from last year. So definitely the bright spot here is for home buyers: More than double the numbers of available listings, prices have gone down 12% and fewer competing buyers in the market. All this means that right now we are in a much more buyer-friendly market here in Winnipeg. Thinking of buying?

1 Canadian home owners not selling right now 2:41

التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبHello…this is Bo Kauffmann of Remax in Winnipeg, with your real estate news for… Monday, April 10th, 2023… Today is National Siblings Day and National Cinnamon Crescent day A newly published article in Better Dwellings reports the fact that Canadian real estate owners are not selling right now, and examines the reasons why. The article reports that two of Canada’s trend leading markets, Toronto and Vancouver, saw new listings in March fall by 44% and 34% respectively. They identify the main reason as being ‘little reason to sell’. Higher interest rates ‘normally’ cause prices to drop, but that’s not happening this time around. The report somewhat falsely claims that the shortage of listings is a country wide phenomenon, affecting all markets. For the full report, go here; https://boknows.homes/4b74e290 But again, Winnipeg is bucking the national trend. On April 1st this year, Winnipeg had 961 houses of all types, styles and sizes available for sale. That was more than double the numbers available on April 1st last year. While we can agree that last year’s 426 houses was an abnormally low number, April 2021 still only had 615 available. We have to go back to the very start of the pandemic, to find over 1,000 listings on any April 1st date. So Winnipeg right now is actually seeing more choices for buyers than at anytime in the past 2 yrs. How about prices. The most recent report from Winnipeg REALTORS shows that the average house in Feb. this year sold for $375k, which is down 13% from the average of 429K the same period of the previous year. The March sales stats should be out in the next day, and I’ll be happy to report them here… Looking to buy or sell in Winnipeg?

Hello…this is Bo Kauffmann of Remax in Winnipeg, with your real estate news for… Thursday, April 6th, 2023… Today is National Burrito Day, New Beers Eve and Nat. Employee Benefits Day Growing demand for homes has made its way up to the higher end of the Canadian real estate market. In most of the country's major markets, luxury sales went up in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the fourth quarter of 2022. RE/MAX Canada looked at luxury market patterns in 15 locations across the country, from coast to coast. They discovered that the significant loss of home stock is pushing up prices at lower price points and increasing demand. 10 of the 15 markets that were looked at are on par with or ahead of Q4 2022. As sales and temperatures rise, this pattern is likely to keep going until the second quarter of 2023. Calgary and Hamilton saw the largest jumps at 34% and 39% respectively. A lot of the activity is thought to be due to demand that has been building up since the middle of 2022. Buyers are taking advantage of the chance they have right now to buy a property. Listings, on the other hand, are hard to come by in most parts of the country, making it hard to find the ideal home. In summary, the report identified 3 trends: 1) Overall national demand for luxury homes has increased 2) Sidelined buyers are back, and 3) The activity is expected on continue and rise. Once again, Winnipeg is one of 5 cities bucking the trend, although just barely. Luxury home sales were down in St. Johns NFLD by 68%, Edmonton AB by 30%, Kelowna BC by 17% and London ONT by 9%. Winnipeg saw the smallest drop at only 3.8%. Looking for a luxury home in Winnipeg?

They tried selling this thing last year, and despite the jaw-dropping 100-million price, the 1.5-acre estate is being marketed as a teardown. BONUS: the new owner will also receive approved plans for a new 10-bedroom, 30,000-square-foot home. (the contruction of which is NOT included) The property is currently owned by Edith Newman and her late husband, Joel Newman, founder of Craig Electronics, since 1995 and has been custom built with nine bedrooms and 12 bathrooms across 25,867 square feet.

Hello…this is Bo Kauffmann of Remax in Winnipeg, with your real estate news for… Tuesday, April 4th, 2023… Today is Nat. School Librarian Day, Vitamin C Day and Hug a Newsperson Day (or podcaster) At least one major Canadian Bank thinks that house prices in Canada are poised to dramatically go up. Scotiabank points out that the Band of Canada and the Fed Government are acting in opposing fashion, and that the Federal Govt might just win this race. While the Bank of Canada has been keeping interest rates higher to cool the housing market, the Fed’s policies are stimulating the real estate market. Policies like increased immigration and the new Tax Free Home Buyer Savings Plan are encouraging buyers to enter a housing market that is low on supply, at least nationally. For more info, read this article here: https://boknows.homes/e6988560 Speaking of housing affordability… RBC has devised an ‘affordability measure’ which is based on the percentage of income a typical household would spend on home ownership costs. Nationally, the average is at 62.8%. But in the late stages of 2022, Vancouver hit the ridiculous mark of 98.1%, making it the most unaffordable city in which to own a home. The average MLS price for a home in greater Vancouver is 1.2 Million dollars. For more info, read this article here: https://boknows.homes/9d515310 Meanwhile, back in River City, the average house is around $340,000, and the average condo around $240,000. And unlike the national average, our market has plenty of homes to choose from….at least for now. Add us to your Daily Routine on Alexa . Go here to add to Alexa in the Canadian Skill Store.

Hello…this is Bo Kauffmann of Remax in Winnipeg, with your real estate news for… Monday, April 3rd, 2023… Today is World Party Day, National Choc Mousse Day and here it’s Market Monday. Being the 1st Monday of the month, lets take a look at the local market conditions. On April 1st, we had 961 houses of all types, styles and price ranges available for sale in Winnipeg. Last year that number was 426. So we have more than double the number of homes for sale than we did last year same time. On the sales side of the equation, we sold 520 homes in March this year, compared to 773 same time last year. So available homes are up over 100%, while sales are DOWN around 35%. It’s a great market for buyers. And with interest rates having stabilized in the past month, things are looking great if you’re interested in buying a home. What about Condos? On April 1st, we had 318 Condos available in Winnipeg, compared to just 247 same day last year. So again, inventory is up nearly 30% During March we sold around 100 condos, compared to 214 last year same period Condos represent an excellent opportunity to get into the home ownership market in Winnipeg, and now is a GREAT time to buy one.

Whenever a huge event, like a Super Bowl comes to a city, rental rates go thru the roof for that week or month. But this is ridiculous Turns out the owner of a 6,000 sq ft home in Paradise Valley , an affluent area in Phoenix, had no intention of renting his home out, let alone rent it during super bowl. But then the agent for Rhianna came calling with a sweetheart offer. As you recall, Rhianna performed at the Super Bowl this year and needed a pad to crash between rehearsals. The offer: $500,000 for ONE WEEK. Singer Avril Lavigne has put her 3500 sq ft Malibu Home on the market for a cool 12 million. The home was built in 1968 and sits on just over half an acre. Over the past 2 decades, actor Brad Pitt had purchased several adjoining properties amounting to just under 2 acres. This week he sold the whole thing to an unidentified buyer for 40 million dollars. Closer to home, a 3500 sq ft Tuxedo home sold for just shy of 2 Million dollars. Noteworthy: The wine cooler in the basement was specifically excluded..…

Hello…this is Bo Kauffmann of Remax in Winnipeg, with your real estate news for… Saturday, April 1st, 2023… Today is April Fools Day, National Sourdough Bread Day (No foolin) As of today, Canadians are supposed to be able to start contributing to a Tax-Free First Home Savings Account. Here is how that works: Canadian Citizens who are at least 18 yrs old, and no older than 71, open up an FHSA and start contributing money into it. The yearly limit is $8,000 with a lifetime limit of $40,000. Just like an RRSP, contributions are deductible from your income tax, so this makes a great tax-avoidance option. Unlike RRSP’s, when you pull the money out to buy your first home, you do NOT have to replace that money into the account later. Definition of first time home buyers are those who have not owned a home, in which they live, for the past 5 years. Started this briefing by saying that Canadians are ‘supposed to be able to start using this vehicle’ but it would appear that financial institutions are not yet ready for this.

Different setting, similar story: Another friend runs a exterior home renovation company and has also had problems finding workers. Problem solved when he found 3 ukraininan males who are not only eager to work but have decades of experience in aluminum siding installation. That same company is also offering a 10% discount on booking any exterior reno project this spring. Contact me for details… 204-333-2202 Im planning to make ‘Feel Good Friday” a regular thing.

True North Real Estate Development has filed a request with city council to be given 1 yr to investigate the possibility of purchasing Portage Place Mall. What was once a jewel in downtown, Portage Place has been “a large, cumbersome and mostly vacant asset in a state of continuing decline in Winnipeg’s downtown for many years”, the filing claims. In national real estate news, The Canadian real estate association reports that on average, house prices have fallen 19% from their HIGH in Feb. 2022. As BMO chief economist predicted they would fall a total of 20-25%, realtors are now seeing buyers coming back into the market. While new listings are down 26% nationally, here in Winnipeg we are again bucking the trend. The 867 houses available on March 1st was more than double the number available the same day a year ago. With the Bank of Canada apparently signalling no further rate hikes, now is a good time for buyers to check out their options. Interested in more indepth real estate information?

Hello…this is Bo Kauffmann of Remax in Winnipeg, with your real estate news for… Wednesday, March 29th, 2023… Today is National Lemon Chiffon Cake Day, and Manatee appreciation day. The sharp drop in headline inflation in February suggests that rates have reached their highest point and that the next move will be a cut. In February, the annual rate of change in the consumer price index slowed to 5.2%. This was the biggest drop since February 2020. Most economists think that the drop in inflation makes it almost certain that the Bank of Canada will not change interest rates at its April 12 meeting. Some people want at least one 25-basis-point rate cut before the end of the year. This would drop the Bank's overnight target rate from 4.50% to 4.25%. Canada is especially vulnerable to the risk of a housing market correction when interest rates are going up because people there have more debt. If inflation rates go down, the Bank of Canada will be able to respond by loosening monetary policy. This is especially true since Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland has said that her next budget will "exercise fiscal restraint" to help fight inflation.

Real Estate brokerage Royal LePage did a study recently to see how much home you could buy for a million dollars. On average, Canada wide, a million will buy your nearly 1800 sq feet, with 3.2 bedroom and 2.6 baths. As you can probably guess, that’s not happening in Vancouver, where a cool mil gets you less than 1,000 sq feet, and not even 2 bathrooms. If you want more house, You’ll have to live on Kraft Dinners. Toronto is next, where you’ll get 1230 sq feet, nearly 3 bedrooms and still less than 2 bathrooms on average. Best bang for your buck? You guess it: Winnipeg comes in as one of the most affordable cities. Last month, a 2300 sq ft home with 4 BR and 3 baths sold for 1.15 million And a newer 2300 ft home in E St Paul sold for 975K….enough money left over to buy a nice chesterfield….or an ottoman. Incidentally, right now there are 44 homes on Winnipeg’s market priced at 1 Million plus. The 4 most expensive ones are all located in Tuxedo. The Luxury Home Marketing Institute defines a luxury home as one which is worth 1 million or more. Add us to your daily routine by going to boknows.homes/alexa…

If you own investment property in Canada, listen up: New rules enacted by CRA may require you to file special forms by April 30th. Its called the Underused Housing Tax and has a nasty surprise built in. You see there are two parts to this: One is the question of whether you owe any new tax on your properties. If you’re a Canadian citizen or resident, you may be excempt from the tax, however that’s not the nasty part: The surprise is that you may likely be required to at least FILE a special form by April 30th this year. And failure to simply file this form can result in up to $10,000 fine PER PROPERTY. So my advice: If you own rental property, check with your accountant or tax professional about the Underused Housing Tax…. My accountant tells me that a LOT of people are unaware of this new rule. I want to thank Garret Wong of Upper Edge Property Management for bringing this to my attention. Interested in more indepth real estate information?

Hello…this is Bo Kauffmann of Remax in Winnipeg, with your real estate news for… Sunday, March 26th, 2023… Today is Epilepsy awareness day, and National Spinach Day and National Nougat day. Spinach doesn’t deserve a day…….but I digest Spring time Sundays mean Open Houses. If you’re planning on attending an open house in your city, remember that the agent there, works for the Seller. Try to keep your oohhs and aaaahs to a minimum, as they may weaken your negotiating position if you do want to make an offer. Also remember that you do have the right to be represented by your own agent, even after visiting the open house. Here are 6 questions you should ask the open house agent. 1) How long have the sellers lived here? You want to determine whether this is a flip house, or a loved family home. 2) How long has the home been on the market? If it’s been up for a long time, have they had price adjustments? 3) How much are the heating costs? Especially important in older homes, which had originally been insulated with newspaper clippings. 4) Has the seller done any renovations or additions? If so, have they pulled the necessary permits, and obtained the follow up inspections 5) Is the seller making any disclosures? Sellers must make disclosures of ‘hidden defects which could affect structure or health issues”. 6) Has the seller had any offers? Good to know if they’ve turned down offers or how much action there has been on the home. Don’t let heavy foot traffic intimidate you into thinking that the house will sell today. Spring time open houses see a lot of action, and much of it is by tire-kickers. If you’re interested in the home, thank the agent, and call your own realtor asap to book your private showing for a 2nd, more indepth look. https://blog.winnipeghomefinder.com/open-house-questions-to-ask/ Interested in more indepth real estate information?

Hello…this is Bo Kauffmann of Remax in Winnipeg, with your real estate news for… Friday, March 24th, 2023… Today is National Cheese-steak day, and National Cocktail day. Spoiler alert;;; I’ll be celebrating BOTH. Good news for home-owners: The provincial budget for 2023 has been announced, and the cost of education is being increasingly funded from general revenues, and less from homeowner property taxes. This is something our real estate board has been advocating for a long time. In this years budget, homeowners will see a 50% refund of the education tax portion of their property tax bill. An estimated average saving of $775 per home. Tomorrow is the day of Earth Hour. In addition to turning off our lights for 1 hour in the evening, here are a couple of tips to help us all be a little more eco-friendly. Replace any remaining incandescent light bulbs with long lasting, power friendly LED bulbs Buy reusable shopping bags and don’t forget them in the car, like I always do Stop using single-use plastics. If you have plastic cups, wash them and reuse them. Install low-flow shower heads and take shorter showers. Instead of buying drinking water in plastic bottles, invest in a good quality filter, and fill reusable bottles. Don’t throw out old clothes and household goods: Donate them to a local charity such as Annie’s Attic Thrift shop at 1560 Main St. They will resell these items and use the money to support their animal shelter.

What is a Special Assessment? Hi, Bo Kauffmann of REMAX in Winnipeg here to explain this term. A special assessment relates to the condominium reserve fund. When a condominium requires repairs, maintenance or upgrades and there is not enough money in the reserve fund, additional money has to be raised from all condo-owners. The act of raising this additional money is called a ‘Special Assessment’. If it is a relatively small sum of money, for example a few hundred dollars, this special assessment is usually collected as a one-time payment. However larger sums may require an ongoing monthly installment plan, which is added to the owners monthly Condo Fees.

1:46 التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احب1:46
التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبWhen you look at house or condo listings, you will see the price, the size of the home and then the ‘price per sq foot’. But how relevant is that number? Buyers might think that a $200 per foot home is a better value than a $300 per foot. Not so fast. Even if both homes are in generally the same condition and in the same neighbourhood, there are a lot of other factors that go into pricing. For example, a 2-storey home is cheaper per foot than a bungalow. And a Bi-level or raised bungalow is the highest priced of all. Also, finished basements and garages add value to the home, without adding actual square footage, so this increases the ‘dollar-per-foot’ figure as well. When buying a home, in any market, make sure you have an experienced agent in your corner. In Winnipeg, call me at 204-333-2202 to help you find your next house or condo.…

التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبNovember 2022 Market Update We’re into the last couple of months of 2022, so let’s see if the buyers market continues into the winter, shall we? Hello, I’m Bo Kauffmann a residential real estate agent with REMAX Performance realty, and your host of Winnipeg’s Real estate podcast. A few days ago, Winnipeg REALTORS reported that sales in October were off (down) by 30% compared to last year. This is certainly true. Whats different about their report and this one is that I focus on Winnipeg only….while Winnipeg REALTORS cover the entire south east quadrant of the province. It’s important to remember that when I say “the market”, it covers many different segments. Not all segments react or act the same way. For example, 400K condos are very different from 400k houses. Transcona’s housing market will be different than the River Heights market. A side by side in St James will enjoy a different response than a detached home in Garden City, and so on. My monthly market report attempts to separate some of these markets along different price points, 4 for houses and 2 for condos. But NO real estate market report would ever be able to replace individual analysis and advice a real estate agent can give you in a one-to-one setting. That’s why, if/when you’re ready to buy or sell, a house or a condo in Winnipeg, call me for a free consultation anytime. With the availability of zoom, we could even hold this consultation online, from the comfort of your own home. If there is one thing you should take away from this month’s report, its this: As you will see by the following numbers, availability of homes is UP, and sales are DOWN, making this a perfect time to buy. Don’t wait til spring when prices traditionally jump, as a result of increased competition among buyers. On Nov. 1st, there were 1228 houses of all types available in Winnipeg. Compare that to 1336 on Oct. 1st, and only 802 on November 1st , last year. As for sales, in October we sold 555 houses with another 22 ‘pending’, meaning that potentially a total of 575 house were sold. That’s nearly identical to the 577 sold the month before, but down significantly from the 756 last year same time period. In fact, that’s down 24% year over year. As I said earlier, we will find that available homes are UP, and sales are DOWN. Ok. Let’s take a look at the first segment of the housing market, which is entry level homes priced under 250,000. Houses under $250,000 Currently we have 335 houses available, which is nearly the same as 339 on Oct 1st. And on the other side of the equation, we sold 117 homes in October, with another 7 pending, for a potential total of 124. That’s about the same as the 121 sold during September, but down significantly from the 155 we sold during October of last year. I find that comparing year over year has more significance than going month to month. So a drop from 155 sales to 124 is noteworthy. Lets look at Winnipeg’s most active price range, homes between 250 and 500K Homes 250-500K On November 1st, we had 495 houses available in this price range, which is down from the 591 on October 1st. We see a similar, perhaps more drastic difference in the sales. During Oct., we sold 326 houses plus 12 pending, for a potential sale of 338 houses. In September, that was pretty much the same, 339, but a year ago in October we sold 445. So about a 25% reduction in sales, year of year, for the month of October. This makes for a great time to buy. Ok, next, we look at some of the higher end homes and how they are faring in this market Homes 500-1 Mill In homes priced between 500K and 1 million, we don’t find a huge change in availability month over month. The 344 homes available right now are nearly the same number as was available on Oct 1st. On the sales side, we sold 110 plus 4 pending, making for potentially 114 sales. That’snearly identical to the 115 sold in September, but down significantly from October last year, when we sold 156 homes in this price range. (about 27% fewer). The picture repeats itself. Availability up, while sales down 27%.... more choices, less competition make this a great time to buy. 1 Million Plus In the luxury home market, we currently have 54 homes priced at 1 Million dollars plus. This is up from the previous month, when we had 48 available. In this price range we sold 11 last month, more than the 7 we sold in September, and more than double the number we sold in October of last year, which was 5.. In most price ranges, outside of the Million dollar plus range, availability is UP and sales are down. Don’t wait til spring. Call me right now to help you secure a great deal on your first, or next home When we come back, we’ll check out the condo market. Ok, lets look at the condo market in Winnipeg. On Nov 1st, we had 377 condos available in all price ranges, which is down from the previous month of 408. During the month of October we sold 121 condos, with another 10 showing pending, for a total of 131 potential sales. That’s down from the 146 we sold in Sept., and way down from the 191 we sold in October of last year. Lets see how that breaks down along the price ranges. Condos under 250 For entry level condos, under 250,000 dollars, we have 216 available, which is about the same as the previous month, when we had 220 available . On the sales side, we have sold 69 units with another 9 showing as pending, so a total of 78 units. While same as the 77 units we sold last month, it is significantly lower than the 105 last year, we can see that sales have dropped off quite a bit in this range. Condos over 250K In the more luxurious condo price range of above 250K, we have 161 units for sale on Nov 1st, down from the 188 on October 1st. Sales have dropped off here as well, with 53 potential sales, that is 52 sold and 1 pending. Those 53 sales are down from the 71 of the previous month, and also down from 86 sales the previous year, same time period. So we see that overall, the condo market is reacting similarly to the housing market: Sales are slower, but availability is plentiful. Thinking of buying a condo as your first or next home? Or perhaps an investment condo to rent out? Call me for a free condo consultation anytime.…

التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احب[00:00:00] Bo Kauffmann - REALTOR: Thinking of owning and managing rental properties. Today I'm gonna talk to a property management company and get some advice for you on this episode of Winnipeg's Real Estate Podcast. [00:00:13] You're listening to The Bo Knows Real Estate Podcast, Tips and Advice for home buyers, sellers, and owners with award-winning reax agent Bo Kauffmann. [00:00:27] Hello everybody. Bo Kaufman Remax Performance Realty, your residential real estate agent. Are you thinking of buying one or more homes or condos to rent out and make some money? Real estate has always been considered a very stable and safe investment. But before we call my friend Jackson Ham of Pillar Property Management, I do want you to be aware of a few things. [00:00:47] I get calls from buyers in Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, thinking of buying homes to use as rental properties here in Winnipeg. They're always excited by the fact that you can still buy a house around the $250,000 mark, but when they learned that most of those homes would rent for only about 1600 a month, they're a lot less enthusiastic. [00:01:06] Buying and owning rental properties is not a get rich quick scheme. That's a tongue twister. You can't buy one or two homes and expect to make a grand per month profit each. That's just not how it works these days with five and 6% interest rates, you may be lucky to break even. So I'll give you an example. [00:01:23] There was a house in East Kildonan on the market for $260,000 and it advertised that it came with a tenant who would love to stay. That tenant was paying 1,450 a month. Now do the math, mortgage payments plus taxes, plus home insurance, that'll all add up to more than 1,450 a month. So how can an owner make money? [00:01:41] The answer is that the current owner bought that house for around $130,000, and at that price is now making a few hundred dollars a month in profit. So when considering buying a rental property, investors need to take the long view. It's not $500 cash flow, you don't see those kind of numbers, not these days in Winnipeg. [00:01:59] So let's call Jackson of Pillar Property Management and ask him a few question. All right. Hello Jackson. How are you doing today? [00:02:06] Jackson Hamm - Pillar Property Manager: I'm not doing too bad, Bo. How are you doing? [00:02:08] Bo Kauffmann - REALTOR: Excellent. Excellent. So let's get right into it. Pillar Property Management. How long have you guys been around? [00:02:14] Jackson Hamm - Pillar Property Manager: Pillar Property Management. We were established in 2007 and we recently celebrated 15 years in the industry. [00:02:19] Bo Kauffmann - REALTOR: Nice. Okay. And how many homes do you have under contract at the moment? [00:02:24] Jackson Hamm - Pillar Property Manager: We're managing between 400 to 450 doors. And. I'd say that's a mixed bag between single family, multi-family apartment buildings, and condominiums included. [00:02:34] Bo Kauffmann - REALTOR: Okay. All right. So what's your average client look like? Do they have six or eight properties or are they mostly startups with one or two? [00:02:40] Jackson Hamm - Pillar Property Manager: On average we get a lot of startups people with about one or two homes who aren't really quite sure what to do with them and maybe have never done property management themselves. [00:02:47] They come to us to of help them out and we do get a few outliers here and there that have about six or seven units. But by and large, I'd say most of them are about one or two just starting off small. [00:02:55] Bo Kauffmann - REALTOR: Right on. Do you guys offer different levels of service or is it just all inclusive. Like finding the tenant and then managing everything? Or do you have different levels. [00:03:03] Jackson Hamm - Pillar Property Manager: So we only have one level of service here at Pillar. And the reason being is we believe that all of our clients should be treated with the same level of quality as as all the rest of them. And at Pillar we do this because we feel that the work we do should reflect the high standards we hold ourselves to. [00:03:17] Which is why we only really want to go for one. Cuz you know, we only want to provide one, which is would be the highest level of service. [00:03:24] Bo Kauffmann - REALTOR: Okay, so let's just briefly walk through this. Let's say I have a property that I wanna let you manage. There's no tenant in it right now. I come and see you. We sign a kind of a contract. What do you guys do? You guys even go out and advertise and find a tenant. You guys take pictures of property, that kind of thing. [00:03:41] Jackson Hamm - Pillar Property Manager: Yeah. So what we'll do is we'll go out and we'll photograph the property for advertisements, but while there's times of vacancy in the property, especially when we do take new tenants or new clients on, we wanna make it very clear that with our clients, we don't charge any sort of management fees during times of vacancy so that they can be they can feel comfortable knowing that we're only gonna be making money when they are, and we're always acting in their best interest to do okay, [00:04:01] Bo Kauffmann - REALTOR: that's good. So then you find the tenant, you do the background checks and all that kind of. We sure do. And what do you charge for your service? [00:04:07] Jackson Hamm - Pillar Property Manager: We charge a 10% management fee for the service. [00:04:10] Bo Kauffmann - REALTOR: So it's 10% of whatever the rent is. [00:04:14] Jackson Hamm - Pillar Property Manager: That's correct, yes. [00:04:14] Bo Kauffmann - REALTOR: Okay., Now since interest rates have gone from two to 5%. Does it make sense to go out and buy a property to rent out right now? I would say, [00:04:21] Jackson Hamm - Pillar Property Manager: I would say it does. And the reason being is because it's never a bad time to buy real estate. And when you wanna mention that the interest rates were, sitting pretty high right now at around seven. [00:04:30] Historically those are still quite low. Compared to the double digit numbers we used to see in the seventies and the eighties. I would say that don't let these interest rates discourage you. With the rates being as high as they have been in the last decade or so I can understand why people would be hesitant to do but that said there's been a lot more the renter's market has been quite flush with the applicants. So you're gonna see pretty low levels of vacancy across the board, and it won't be too hard to find yourself a really nice applicant to fit yourself in your home [00:04:55] Bo Kauffmann - REALTOR: What do your recent clients look like? Uh, You and I had a brief discussion about that and you said you're getting a lot of homeowners who are unable to sell their houses for one reason or another. Is that your main new client [00:05:06] Jackson Hamm - Pillar Property Manager: right now at the moment with the interest rates the way they are, it is a lot of our clients are coming in because they aren't able to find buyers for their homes. [00:05:13] And so they decided to turn it into a bit of a nest egg investment and put their real estate into their portfolio and make money off of it. A lot of the people that come in these days, a lot of our clients recently have been a lot of young people that are just starting out their careers and looking to diversify their investment portfolio. [00:05:27] As well, we're seeing quite a lot of new Canadians who are, new to the country, but understand that Winnipeg has a really healthy real estate markets and can be uh, pretty profitable to jump into the rental property industry right from the GetGo. [00:05:39] Bo Kauffmann - REALTOR: Okay. Now, if somebody wanted to get into buying rental property, what would you advise 'em how to? [00:05:43] Jackson Hamm - Pillar Property Manager: In Winnipeg if you were to, wanted to get into the rental property industry, I would say start looking for a house that has three bedroom. I think that's a lot of a lot of the times it's the most attractive home renters can look for really attractive to families for one. [00:05:55] And it's going to give you a bit of a higher ROI because you can charge a bit higher rent for something with three bedrooms as opposed to two. And generally it attracts a wide range of applicants as opposed to a two bedroom, which you might see more maybe small families, single renters, that kind of thing. So the three bedrooms would probably be the good place to start if I had to give my opinion on that. [00:06:12] Bo Kauffmann - REALTOR: What about neighborhoods? Are there any neighborhoods that you would recommend that would fit the right price range? [00:06:18] Jackson Hamm - Pillar Property Manager: Any neighborhoods off the top of my head I could think of, be maybe around the Logan and Keewatin areas. [00:06:22] The North End has got a lot of really good investment properties there. And it's often pretty low cost of entry there, if you were starting small, I would recommend, checking with the north end of Winnipeg. There's great real estate around there. And it's usually a low cost entry to get into that market. [00:06:36] Bo Kauffmann - REALTOR: Not the bidding wars. You don't wanna get involved in the bidding war if you're looking for a rental property. Exactly. That was my interview with Jackson Ham of Pillar Property Management, and I have some final words when I come. [00:07:18] After we stopped recording, I asked Jackson what he considered to be the sweet spot of buying rental properties at what price would a home give you the best or the most decent roi? He said that they have a few nice bungalows with double car garages that fetch around $3,500 a month in rent. [00:07:35] And if you can find such a home around the $350,000 mark, there's definitely a demand by tenants for nicer homes. Now 3,500 is way above the average Winnipeg rent. What you get here is you get professionals that have been temporarily transferred to Winnipeg for one or two years and would like to live in a nicer home, and they don't mind paying that, that level of rent. [00:07:56] Just some food for thought. I hope you've enjoyed listening to this episode as much as I've enjoyed creating it, cuz I really do.
