Hello and Welcome to our August Newsletter.
Now that we are seeing a cooling off with the Real Estate market,
how will this affect our economy? We found an insightful article which is very informative.

Lee and Jeanine Marshall were a real pleasure to work with. I felt we were a team to get the job done. All the best in your new home.
Our Langley Market Report is showing detached home prices are up 29.7% from last year with listings down by 39.9% and sales volume also down by 4.7% year over year. The same could be said for Condos and Townhomes in the Langley area.
Tickets are selling quickly for the Fort Langley Jazz Festival. There is limited seating. It is on the September long weekend. Check out their website. Stay tuned, we will have a contest for the Blues Show.
Rita Cousins Mortgage Broker gives us some closing tips once you have an accepted offer.
Irina Bartnik Notary Public talks about home insurance and how the forest fires are hindering getting proper insurance for financing.
In the news we found an article on changing home trends for 2022. Always a worthwhile investment to keep up to date.

A new global analysis suggests Canada’s major metros are among the hardest places on earth for young people to buy their first home, with Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal ranking near the bottom of a 70-city affordability index. The study, from UAE-based developer Bloom Holding, estimates the typical first-time buyer in Vancouver enters the market at age 46, while those in Toronto and Montreal reach homeownership at around 40 and 39, respectively. The findings echo a broader North American trend.
