Hi everyone:
I just came across an excellent resource for mortgage rate, interest rate, insurance rate and credit card rate information. Check out the blog at ratesupermarket.ca
This site features input by some very impressive contributors. While NO ONE can predict interest rates with 100% accuracy, being able to draw on the experience of some of the countries top mortgage experts gives ratesupermarket a nice advantage in this effort.
The site blog includes categories such as Mortgage Tips, Housing Market, Real Estate and dozens of others.
This month’s Mortgage Rate Outlook predicts that fixed rates are expected to remain the same, ‘with downward bias’, and variable rates are also expected to remain the same.
This continues to be an excellent time to purchase a house or condo in Winnipeg. Inventory levels are up slightly, and due to summer vacations, buyer activity is down a little, meaning that your chances of finding and actually getting a house are increased.
If you’re looking to purchase a home (house or condo) in Winnipeg, please call me anytime. Bo 204-333-2202

Hi Everyone:
I wanted to send out a quick report on the condominium situation in the south end of St Vital. I had recently noticed that there is a shortage of good quality condo listings in the south end Winnipeg neighbourhood, a factor which helped on of my recent listings sell for significantly over the asking-price.
For a look at the overall market report, go to Winnipeg Market Report for September 2010 video.
Currently, in the south St Vital area, there are only 14 condominiums listed for sale, ranging in price from the low end of 575 sq-ft condo on Arden at $119,900 to a high-end, 1515 sq ft luxury condo at The Waterfront for $450,000.
During the month of June 2010, this same area saw a total of 19 condos sold, ranging in price from $117,000 to a high of $356,000. Of these, 8 condos sold ABOVE list price, 7 sold BELOW list, and 4 sold AT LIST. June was considered a very busy month for real estate in Winnipeg.
During July 2010, a total of only 10 condominiums were sold in this area, ranging in price from $145,000 to $400,000. Of those, 4 condos sold ABOVE list, and 6 sold BELOW list.
While ‘multiple offers’ are more rare in condominiums, our current shortage of listings is helping to create a situation where sellers can expect good activity on their condos, listed on the MLS® by REALTORS®. As well, a slow down in the market activity is to be expected in the summer months, as condo buyers take vacations, just as house buyers tend to do. I would expect the market to pick up once again, after the September long weekend.
If you’re looking to sell your condo, in St. Vital or other areas of Winnipeg, please call me anytime for a realistic and complimentary market evaluation, and a look at my Customized Marketing Plan for your Condo.
