D’Arcy Harris –Weekly Real Estate Update December 5, 2005.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Okay, Christmas is almost upon us, followed by New Years, which tends to take up a lot of our time. (Understatement? Oh yeah.) Usually between now and January, most people are too preoccupied with presents, family, snow and egg nog to worry about the real estate market. Most people would rather sit by the fire or go skiing, and who can fault them? But there is always a group of people who don’t have the luxury of waiting till after the festivities to move, and will keep showing their home in the hopes that they’ll be able to pay off their debt/transfer jobs/finalize their divorce/close on they other house they bought/move before the holidays etc. etc. etc.
And this goes for both buyers and sellers. The fact is that this is a great time to buy or sell because you know that everyone who is still in this market is serious, ready and willing.
The question is, are you willing to sacrifice some of your holiday time to find the home of your dreams? For those that say yes, maybe spending next Christmas in the perfect home is worth the sacrifice now. Something to think about? I hope to hear from you!

Success Story of the Week
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Congratulations to E. and N. who went ahead with the purchase of their new townhouse in Downtown Vancouver. There was some concern about the building, but once the inspector went through and the docs were read and approved, they realized that we got a great deal. The lesson here is that sometimes it pays NOT to listen to other people, and that some time spent researching everything for yourself will pay huge dividends!
