Vancouver Real Estate Audio Experience

With the proposed 500,000 new Canadian immigrants desired by the federal government annually now, how will the housing market cope? If there isn’t enough housing for everyone currently here, how can we possibly accommodate for such an influx annually? Bureaucracy and redtape need to step aside and building needs to continue consistently and quickly. We are disagreeing on the points of today’s video, have a look and see who you side with! -- -- Jay McInnes 604-771-4606 jay@sharprealestategroup.ca Ben Robinson 604--353-8523 ben@sharprealestategroup.ca ✅⬇️✅ FOLLOW US ONLINE HERE✅⬇️✅ Youtube - http://www.YouTube.com/mcinnesmarketing Website - http://www.SharpRealEstateGroup.ca Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/mcinnesmarke...

This week we dive into the monthly numbers. What is it looking like? Surprisingly still no Buyers Market in sight. Balanced & sellers market in all segments of the market. We additionally dive into the realities of seller expectations in the current market. Are they unrealistic or do more people than normal just not NEED to actually sell? A few people more than happy to try top of market numbers and fish for potential buyers... But not a lot of people NEEDING to sell by the looks of things... Will this change? Sooner or later?? 20% of fixed term mortgages expiring every year... So when are things going to hit the fan....? Or are they?? Message us or comment to us directly with your thoughts on things moving forward! Thank you for your subscribing, liking & attention once again

This week we look into our crystal balls again on what 2023 will look like here in the Vancouver Real Estate Market. From mortgage rates to market climate, we discuss it all!  Additionally we dive into the other main conversation that is currently taking place at the moment on pricing. Yes prices have reduced in all markets now. However with those price reductions, the difference is really made back up on the cost of money now. So end users are not really feeling the pricing relief when they are needing to fill the void with the currently expensive mortgage Money...  Thank you for your attention and please reach out and touch base through the comment section with any further questions you may have at your convenience.

This week we follow the money! There is much talk about inflation and the bank of Canada raising rates as we all know. In addition to your monthly mortgage payment either going up or simply paying a smaller % of your monthly payment (if you are not in a fixed term mortgage), there is a lot currently happening. In this episode we break down exactly how the money you borrow (Mortgage) gets from the Bank of Canada to you in order to purchase the roof over your head.

This week we dive into the ABC Vancouver's Platform to change the city as we know it! We have highlighted 21 special points of the parties 94 point plan to revitalize & clean up the city. The 94 point plan is broken down into the following 12 segments: - Reconciliation - Equity, Diversity, & Inclusion - Social, Supportive, and Non-Market Housing - Market Housing - Public Safety, Mental Health and Community Wellness - Transparency, Accountability, and Good Government - Economy, Sport, Arts & Culture - Design, Planning, and Transportation - Climate Action & Sustainability - Childcare - Park Board Priorities - School Board Priorities All of these segments not only have points of action that the party will be taking directly, but the perspectives and governing guidelines that they will be moving forward with in their attempt to clean up the city.

This week we deep dive into the next mayoral fight for the streets of Vancouver! The election is this weekend but pre-voting has already begun. We dive into JUST the housing platforms of the five candidates, Kennedy Stewart - Forward Together (Current Mayor of Vancouver), Ken Sim - ABC Vancouver, Colleen Hardwick - TEAM Vancouver, Mark Marrisen - Progress Vancouver, Fred Harding - NPA Vancouver. Some points in all of their housings platforms overlap and some have some outlying points that they will be focusing on. We try and stay as balanced about each candidate as possible and not layer on our opinion (too much). But of course this is something we all need to be focusing on and getting out and voting on!

This week Ben & Jay are going through the September 2022 Vancouver Real Estate Market Update! There is one main point that must be highlighted form this months update & that is the fact that month over month listing numbers have quickly increased!!! This is a very welcomed change from last month which was still down and decreasing... One of the huge issues that the current market velocity has been facing that has kept it rather deflated is the fact that new inventory was at such a minimum... We see it every day with buyers that we are working with that there is simply a lack of quality inventory to select from, let alone achieving one at a realistic price from the clutches of todays sellers... That is your snap shot, contact us for any further real estate related details at your convince and thank you for your attention once again. We appreciate you!! Have a great week until next Thursdays video drop! -- -- Jay McInnes 604-771-4606 jay@sharprealestategroup.ca Ben Robinson 604--353-8523 ben@s

Today we are back in the studio and discussing the effects of the most recent and very controversial 2% annual rental increase allowance that was passed. This was an increase that was long awaited to see what the government was going to mandate for landlords to be able to increase rent. People were really waiting to see how much increase was going to be allowed or if they were going to continue a rental increase freeze. Of course they chose to increase minimally at a flat 2% and people on both sides of the fence were of course unhappy, we believe for obvious reasons... We also dive into the realities of the increase and how in the long run by making investment in rental properties less lucrative, will inevitably dilute the rental stock in the city & in turn will make rentals more expensive organically. Thank you for your attention, we would love to hear your thoughts on the above topic and what direction you believe things will go from here. Both regarding the rental market & if you simply agree or

This week Ben is solo while Jay is away! Ben discusses some new changes that are coming to both the Vancouver Real Estate Board & Realtor.ca for further Real Estate transparency to the market. Transparency is always welcomed win our eyes & the more information that is free flowing about the market, the better. The changes discussed are as follows: - Historical Listing Prices of home swill now be made public through Realtor.ca - October 17 2022 - Any bully offers that may come in early will be held and not disclosed to the seller until the official offer date. - Multiple offer clarity & registry with specific details to be made public to all parties involved. What are your thoughts on these new layers of clarity & transparency? Are they necessary? Will they help?? We would love to hear your feedback in the comments below! -- -- Jay McInnes 604-771-4606 jay@sharprealestategroup.ca Ben Robinson 604--353-8523 ben@sharprealestategroup.ca ✅⬇️✅ FOLLOW US ONLINE HERE✅⬇️✅ Youtube - http

This week we discuss todays interest rate hike by the Bank of Canada of yet another 0.75% bringing the current prime rate ups to 3.25%. This will continue to put further pressure on real estate sales & listing value. Plus of course add buying pressure to the market. Buyers have time these days in their decisions to still surprisingly not a large list of quality inventory to choose from... Will this bring more inventory to market? We also discuss all of the months statistics with year over year & month over month comparables of the current state of the Detached, Attached & Condo markets of Vancouver.

This week we are doing the summer roundup! I Jay McInnes am on the scotch & cigar couch solo as Ben & Chase are away... The summer round up s going over what the hell has happened in the past 5 months since the market has changed. What have interest rates done and where do I believe they are going. What has inflation done? What is the market looking like today. And of course what is the Fall Market Forecast!?!?!?! This week is just like the good old days of me-myself-&-I in front of the camera so you DON'T want to miss this uninterrupted (not-common) couch session with yours truly.

This week we discuss the details around selling your property at a loss and why it might make sense to do so... We will start by saying there is selling an an Authentic Loss (selling at a principal price below the principal price you paid) & selling at a fabricated loss (Selling at a price simply below peak market pricing). No-one wants to sell at an authentic loss. However sometimes life changes and things need to be done. Jobs change, families grow etc... If one of these things change and a sale needs to take place at an authentic loss in the current softening real estate environment, you may be in luck. If you are buying up into a neighbourhood or product type that has taken a larger % hit than the property you are selling, there is leverage to be gained by this switch in properties...

RBC is the largest Bank in Canada. The economists over there have highlighted that they believe we will have a peak to trough fall in the real estate market of 42%. This would be the largest adjustment in the past 40 years. No to be clear, this is a call on the Canadian Market a a whole, not just Vancouver. Let's dive into what this would look like, how realistic we believe this to be, some examples of how far the market has moved to date and out thoughts and opinions layered onto as usual.

This week we discuss that measures the government is taking to curb the market. However we would like to highlight this with a different approach that could be taken. We believe the government actions to date have proven that they believe in crippling the certain aspects of the market to assist with affordability. We believe this is completely the wrong approach. We believe the government should nurture aspects of the market to make things more affordable, and here is how!
