June 2021 Newsletter
Andy Schildhorn • June 21, 2021
Hello and Welcome to our June Newsletter.
Starting June 1st, Canadian homebuyers faced tougher mortgage stress test rules.
This should, I am told, affect buying power, by about 5%.
Our Featured listing this month is 21975 100th Ave. Here we have a completely renovated 3,000 sq.ft home sitting on a very private 4.2 acres. Give me a call and we will set up a private showing.
Egon and Benita Warkentin were such great clients and neighbours. Bittersweet to see them move on to new adventures. All the best to both of you and family.
Our Langley infographic is showing detached home prices are up 34.2% with listings down 10% and sales volume up 223.7% year over year. Condos and Townhomes are following similar trends.
I am not a golfer. Have tried it a few times and it never stuck. Langley has some of the best greens around. Take a meander and check them out.
Rita Cousins walks us through the 4 important steps of buying a home with a mortgage broker and what vital roles she plays in the buying process.
Irina Bartnik, Notary Public, discusses the Land Owner Transparency Registry and what “Beneficial Ownership” means.
In the news, we dig a bit deeper, into the Land Owner Transparency Registry and how there is a 90 day holding period before information is publically released.
So that’s it for this month. Covid is quickly being left behind. I am sure everyone is looking forward moving forward with their lives, which may include making a change on where you live. Call me, text me or email me and we can start discussing your real estate needs looking at the whole picture right up to and including moving into your new home.
Thanks for dropping by, have a great day and I look forward to seeing you soon.

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. In the United States, the median first-time buyer age has climbed to a record 40, according to the National Association of Realtors — up from 33 just a few years ago — as higher rates and decade-long price gains delay ownership for younger households. 👉 Read the Article Here
