The “Cooling Off Period” is moving ahead. I still do not see how this will help our real estate market. More open bidding? That needs to be looked at. The market is leveling off. Maybe a little late.

Our featured listing is 406 5438 198 Street. Located in the Nicomekl neighbourhood, just around the corner to city convenience and yet close to walking trails on the Nicomekl river.

Here is our recorded Facebook live session for April market statistics. This is always a lot of fun. Thank you Jeanette for suggesting this.

Our Langley Market Report is showing detached home prices are up 38.2% from last year with listings up by 12.4% and sales volume down by 21.5% year over year. The same could be said for Condos and Townhomes in the Langley area. It is still very much a Seller’s market out there.

The Fort Langley Farmer’s Market is opening up. Every Saturday from 9:00 to 3: 00pm. Organic veggies to varietal BC wines and spirits.

Rita Cousins Mortgage Broker discusses the differences between a mortgage broker and dealing directly with the bank. Who do you want on your side.

Irina Bartnik Notary Public, goes into detail on the Federal budget and their new housing policies.

Will the increase in interest rates deflate the real estate market? Maybe that with other pressures we could see a
leveling off.

Well, that’s it for this month. This past weekend was pretty busy. If you are thinking of making a move, now is the time. Let’s talk.

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

SURREY, BC – March home sales in the Fraser Valley remained nearly 50 per cent below the 10-year average — making for the slowest start to the spring market in more than 15 years. The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board recorded 1,036 sales in March, up 13 per cent from February, but still 26 per cent below sales recorded this time last year. Following a decline on the Board’s Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) in February, new listings increased 22 per cent in March to 3,800. Overall inventory is at a decade-high level, with 9,219 active listings, 49 per cent above March 2024 and 59 per cent above the 10-year seasonal average.
