 Hello and Welcome to our December Newsletter.

Did you know that BC's home values are now worth 24% of Canada's entire total. We are the epicenter of Canada's housing affordability crisis!!!

For December we do not have a featured listing, however in this market, a plan is needed and now is the time to start thinking about your 2022 move.

We worked with Charlotte for over a year on her Mom’s estate. We are all so happy that everything came to a
successful conclusion.

We have a new monthly feature on the second Friday of the month. A Facebook Live talk on our local market conditions. You can catch up here.

Our Langley Market Report is showing detached home prices are up 33.3% from last year with listings down by 24% and sales volume also down by 21% year over year. The same could be said for Condos and Townhomes in the Langley area.

Have you heard about the Glow Gardens? Driving through a lighted Winter Wonderland!!!.

Rita Cousins Mortgage Broker talks about home ownership for new Canadians.

Bjorn Rygg Home Inspector has Holiday and Winter Fire Safety Tips.

In the news, RBC Economists forecast housing demand will cool next year however inventory will remain tight keeping pressure on pricing.

Thanks for dropping by, have a great day and I look forward to meeting with you soon.

SURREY, BC – The Fraser Valley market showed early signs of a spring thaw in February, with sales increasing over January, but continuing to trail typical levels for this time of year. The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board recorded 843 sales on its Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) in February, a 36 per cent increase from January, but 38 per cent below the ten-year seasonal average. New listings declined nine per cent in February to 2,796, suggesting some sellers are choosing to wait amid competitive inventory levels, and may be positioning their homes for the peak of the spring market.
