with the real estate industry at was unanimously elected the 31st president of the Canadian Real Estate Association at Canadian Heal Estate Association annual meeting In Quebec City last month He assumed office Nov a genial soft spoken individual when not on the podium has haa a long and distinguished career in real estate rising from clerk to vice president of his company and Leipsic Ltd He has been equally outstanding in serving the real estate industry For 10 years he has had an almost unbroken period of service beginning with the Winnipeg Real Estate Board where he was director and

his election was announced when he was exposed to rapid fire questioning from reporters at a press conference During his term of office he told reporters he would like to sec a warranty or insurance scheme on resale homes approved I think this Is one of the greatest strides we could take Ho will also work toward less government in the free market system I have never had it proven to me that government can do a better job than free enterprise and at a cost that is not a burden to the taxpayers he asserted Also among aims in the year ahead is to give the real estate industry more credibility Despite the fact the industry has done a good job for the public in the past consumers are now asking questions about it he noted such aB the charge for professional services In the past the industry has been somewhat m explaining the charges he said adding lama gnat defender of that system because 1 don know of any other system which has worked better Hi reiterated that a property owner does not need to use the services of a real estate practitioner when selling as he does a lawyer when a legal problem arises or an accountant when a tax problem or accounting problem arises I think ours is one of the few industries mem of the public could do without if they chose But they do use our industry the president pointed out proving it performs a valuable service In addition all services are provided without remuneration unless they result in a sale Regardless of the level of service provided the real estate industry is dependent on consumer goodwill observed If anyone wants to know anything about our industry we are prepared to tell them Turning to the market situation he conceded that the market Ins levelled off but that there is not a feeling of pessimism among real estate professionals While housing has proven itself to be the best investment for the individual over a period of time the fact that prices decline does not make it any less of a good investment the new presidenf em IT I have to sell my home for less than I paid I will also pay less for a dozen eggs and other things It really the purchasing power of the dollar that counts It average house prices decline reflecting an economic shift then other prices will also be affected he noted strongly objects to the practice of real estate salespersons accepting listings for homes at prices above market value For example if an owner to list his home at when in reality it is worth only the salesperson should refuse to accept the listing If this practice was followed by everyone then homes would be listed at realistic prices he said In a persona sample he took recently he found that houses were sold on for a 15 per cent below the figure at which they were listed People will get sufficient listings if properties are priced realistically underlined bearing in mind that prices fluctuate as the m fluctuates Tom Cooper 8779620 Wendy Saxe 8772984 RozettaStolp 8772180 Frank Tyrrell 8777225
