December 5th, 2007Westside Homes Market Update
November 19th, 2007
We have had a continuous run of high activity in our market throughout
the summer. September and October activity and pricing remain strong
and should continue well into November before the market slows down for
December. Best time to sell is now until mid November. Best time to
buy is now through November, December, and January (the best deals on
buying are when no one else is and historically the inventory levels
are not that bad during these months). How is the market doing:
Housing price index as of September 2007 - Vancouver Westside/Downtown
Benchmark price is the estimated price

2007 Autumn Fair
October 29th, 2007Thanks to all who attended our 2007 Autumn Fair and Pumpkin Patch last weekend. It was a great success and we raised over $500 for Kits House (our community partner). The pumpkin patch was a big hit with all who came, not to mention the pumpkin carving, pie eating contest, pancake breakfast, and music and dance for the little ones.
