From todays Peace Arch news. Finally an honest real estate reporter. Not too many of these in the lower mainland media where the gospel of up up up is spread.
Oct 11 2007
House prices fell in White Rock last month – bucking the trend across the Fraser Valley where increases are still breaking records.
The average price of a single family detached home in White Rock dropped to $791,717 by Sept. 30, down 3.4 per cent from $819,249 the previous month.
And the statistics show an even more marked decrease, down 4.9 per cent, in the same kind of property from a year ago.
White Rock townhouse prices also took a beating last month, although to a lesser extent than its detached counterpart, with a decrease of 2.4 per cent, to an average $470,068.
However, apartments surged by an incredible 13.6 per cent last month to an average of $350,930, up 5.7 per cent from a year ago.

Hypester,
Affordability walls are kicking in. Plus, the quarter point mortgage rate increases at the banks this week will add to the affordability factor.

October 12, 2007 at 3:39 pm
To go along with the higher housing prices, the recent rate hike yes, will affect affordability. Within the last 10 months, the five year posted rate has increased close to 1%. To provide an example to the lessening affordabilty, on a qualifying income of say $80k for a $300k mortgage at 25 year amort., this would be a qualiying debt serivice ratio hit/increase of about 2-3%, that has to lower the purchasing power somewhat.

“The average price of a single family detached home in White Rock dropped to $791,717 by Sept. 30, down 3.4 per cent from $819,249 the previous month. ”
Um why are homes in White Rock so expensive? Almost 1/2 of the 500 homes currently available are over 1 million dollars. It’s a brutal commute to Vancouver. Are there any decent jobs locally? Anybody know what’s up with that? It seems to me I did a search a year or two ago and there were buckloads of homes in the $300,000 to $400,000 range. Doesn’t this median rival that of Vancouver proper?
October 12, 2007 at 6:09 pm
wow… i thought White Rock was like Scarborough… more like $400k for a house.
October 12, 2007 at 6:11 pm
I have heard its almost as expensive as North Van. This year it has taken a beating. Im not sure why? It is close to the USA. The wave must be coming up.

“Campbell? oh ya sell the Fast Cats for pennies and the majority population blames the NDP.”
Blame the NDP? How dare someone blame them for the fast cats. They had nothing to do with it. It was those welders who built the things.
“We could of got allot more for just the scrap.”
Then why didn’t you buy them and sell the scap for a big profit? They were sold to the highest bidder. They are still sitting idle in Vancouver Ship Yards rotting away. The ships are of such poor design and workmanship these boats are virtually useless.
“What about all those welders that were trained and now experienced/skilled? They are now using those skills/experience in the 2010 construction.”
At least we will know who to blame if the Olympics flop - the welders. We can’t possibly blame the government that oversees it all.

The fact is that the government could of bought them and scrapped them. After all they could of created further employment and salvaged more than they were sold for.
Newsflash:”The ships are of such poor design and workmanship these boats are virtually useless.”
Newsflash your commenting to somebody who actually was involved in the construction of the fast cats. I agree the design was the flaw that created the strong wake which was not kind to the shoreline environment.
The welders though did make some mistakes but they made good on them from what I have heard.
BTW, the welders won’t cause a problem with Vancouvers construction.

We’ve talked about Brio here before, that’s how hyped it is. Its been all over the news more than once. Is it that great that 50% sold considering everybody from Squamish to Hope knows about it by now?
The reason we were talk about Brio before was because they are putting a rush on it. Construction quality is already of dubious quality these days, and now this developer will hire any crack-smoking fool who can swing a hammer and treat them like royalty at the same time.

Demand side : The growth of GV population is low.
Supply side: There are tons of building projects (completed or under construction) in recent years. The supply is relatively high.
Besides,buyers mortgage more on growing interest rate than couple years ago.
I am not surprised in 50% correction.
October 14, 2007 at 2:33 pm
Jeff, with the introduction of 40 year ammortization you will more than likely not see a correction of more than 30%.
Unless they remove the recent inroduction s of products that make aquiring homes so easy or make payments so low there won’t be drastic (50+%) change. Sorry I would like to see 2003 numbers as well :).
October 14, 2007 at 3:56 pm
“…with the introduction of 40 year ammortization you will more than likely not see a correction of more than 30%.”
They may not be as popular as some might suppose.
Ask yourself this, “Would YOU take out a 40 year mortgage?”
October 14, 2007 at 4:41 pm
The mindset of the general public is the narrowmindness of thinking like a millionaire and as such are buying a second or third home at these prices. They will certainly be a major drop to likes of which we have never seen. People in general have never been so in debted. They have this notion that they can do no wrong when buying RE. Remember cash is King and that is a fact!!!! All it is going to take is one little push a major economic slowdown or interest rate hike something will happen and then crash boom bam.
October 14, 2007 at 5:18 pm
40 year mortgage is a poisonous candy.
Most of payment goes to interest not principal.
If you are 30 years old now, you must carry this debt till 70 years old.
Can you guarantee your job in next 40 years?
October 14, 2007 at 5:22 pm
Guys go on MLS mortgage calclator and play with the numbers. Mortgage $300k then play with the ammortization and interest rates. You’ll see that the differences are around $300 dollars a month from going from 25 year to 40 year ammortization.
What I am saying is that those who are locked in with 25 year ammortization and an average ammort of 25 have an option to go 40 year ammort if the rates go up. I took the rates to 8% and looked at the extra cost!!! I didn’t find it that big a difference where things would be totally unsustainable. I mean , like the mainlanders from China I could turn my house into a rooming house if I had too.
October 14, 2007 at 5:23 pm
Sorry i ended my last comment in some sarcasm, I would not turn my home into a rooming house!

Did you guys hear about “Mc Pherson’s Walk, a most anticipated Burnaby neighbourhood”?
It’s a complex of some 350 units close to where I live. Three bedroom townhouse of approximately 1200sqf will cost you at least $520K plus gst. Not exactly cheap.
Now, when I went there to take a look on Saturday (well into the day) the place was a Zoo… I asked couple of questions about this and that, but my main concern was this: the townhouse floor plans were showing a lower level to be containing a tandem garage with a garage door and a separate ground level entrance.
However on the site plan/ scale model there were no garage entries/driveways anywhere in sight.
So I asked the “RE specialist” who was assigned to help me with my “buying experience” how this worked and she said she didn’t know. After making some inquiries it turned out that the entrance to your “own” garage is through the common underground parking. IMO, that sucks.
But that’s not even the point.
When I asked the agent about it and she answered “I don’t know” I was surprised that nobody would actually ask that question before… as she admitted I was the first one to question the layout of the unit… But it didn’t really matter as they were “mostly sold out” anyway.
I mean people are dropping $600k for a 1100sqf future leaky condo in the middle of semi-industrial wasteland and don’t even ask any basic questions?
Wow!
Not that they spoke any english to begin with (buyers that is) Maybe it was just a language barrier. Sheesh. What a joke.

Looks like those mortgage rate increases prior to the BOC announcement are sticking. Credit unions and others followed suit with rate increases of their own.

So if you’re looking for a counterview to all the rosy, recession-free forecasts out there, here’s a contrarian view. House prices have only begun a much longer slide. And consumers may be about to take it on the chin, dragging the world’s most powerful economy near, or into, recession.
Thankfully, Canada can still sell the United States its oil and gas.
Americans won’t need much of all the other stuff we sell them if a recession is coming.

Blueskies, good post from the G&M. The local RE market continues to decline but people are still buying. I think I am going to take pleasure in the carnage when mortgage rates increase and the people have to sell.
