Thanksgiving is this weekend and we have so much to be thankful for.
Tom and I have been building a great business and we just love our work. We have an incredible assistant, Charlotte, who does so much behind the scenes. We have 3 beautiful daughters and we are in good health. We live in one of the best cities in one of the best countries in the world. We have wonderful friends and really the list can go on!
Along with giving thanks, we feel that Thanksgiving includes an action component… the actual GIVING of thanks. It’s not simply the experience of being thankful that makes the holiday meaningful. Actually gathering together to share a meal, the act of cooking, of doing something together, is a large component of the holiday.
Like thankfulness, good intentions require action to give them meaning. We are thankful to be part of a group of colleagues who do put good intentions into action, the 100+ REALTORS who Care. We’re a group of Victoria agents who meet quarterly to give back to the community. We first met in June and gave to the Laren Society, and then met again in September and gave to Artemis Place.
The more Tom and I put good intentions into action, the more we will have to be thankful for.
October 1, 2015, Victoria BC - The Victoria Real Estate Board today released its report on real estate activity for September 2015. A total of 704 properties sold in the Victoria Real Estate Board region this September, an increase of 24.6% compared to the 565 properties sold in the same month last year.
There were 3,478 active listings for sale on the Victoria Real Estate Board Multiple Listing Service® at the end of September, 18.2% fewer than the 4,253 active listings in September 2014.
"We certainly have less inventory in the market than we saw at this time last year," Victoria Real Estate Board President Guy Crozier says. "Though higher sales have contributed to a reduction in the available inventory, with almost 1,000 new listings entering the market in September, there is still a continual supply of new inventory for those folks who hope to make a move."
The Multiple Listing Service® Home Price Index benchmark value for a single family home in the Victoria Core last year in September was $558,600. The benchmark value for the same home in September 2015 has increased by 8.7% to $607,100.
"While September often signals the re-start of the market after the traditional summer slowdown in sales activity, our market remained strong right through the summer and September," notes President Crozier. "This September is different than past years. Our busiest month last year was in May, and 714 properties sold. That's only 10 more transactions than we saw in September this year. The question now is - will we see the normal winter lull in sales and listings or will the market continue at this pace?"
