Yes, busy with potential buyers and forgetting to be opinionated on my blog.
Time goes by fast in the real estate business in Victoria. The reality is that when other markets are looking a little sad and fluctuate due to many aspects of the economic cycle, the state of things in Victoria rolls along in a steady fashion. We are influenced of course by interest rates, and early last year had a fast moving market with people trying to get things done prior to the arrival of HST and to take advantage of some incentive programs.
However, we are also favored by those who like the even weather patterns of our west coast living. Sure we get our share of winter - what would skiing be with out snow, or our salmon rivers without lots of rain. Calls from other parts of Canada are a regular part of our business and we love to arrange to tour our fabulous properties. The niche market of Ucluelet (you clue let) with which I now have a direct connection is another of our specialties being ideal for the recreational or second property market. Easily accessed from anywhere, it comes ahead of its neighbor Tofino when it comes to a powerful source of amazingly priced properties in all sectors of this market. This runs from time-shares, holiday rental properties, hotel units, wonderful view lots at good prices, operational Bed and Breakfasts, fully developed west coast houses - the lot.
With a direct line and agreement to assist in marketing I can put you in touch with ALL of these properties, or will arrange a personal tour to take a close look at a very special and barely noticed market. Frankly a good time to buy.
So I have to go now and do some entertaining.
