According to some " of Canada's leading real estate experts, public opinion researchers and economists, first time buyers arc responding to improved improved conditions for purchasing homes. First time buyers arc seen as the driving force behind a return to greater greater market activity, with demand for entry level housing brisk in most ma-' jor urban areas. Virtually all major centres report an increase in market activity over the summer and fall months and marginal price increases of 2% to 3%, this year over last. In Central and Eastern Canada, greater sales have contributed to more balanced market conditions. Most cities cities arc reporting a four to six month supply of housing on hand and anticipate anticipate price increases of between 2% and 3 % for moderately priced homes. In some Western cities' such as Victoria, Vancouver and Edmonton, price increases for entry level homes arc in the 4% to 6% range. RE/MAX forecasts demand for residential properties to remain at or exceed current levels throughout Western Canada, with price increases averaging 3%. to 4% through 1993. A recently held RE/MAX Forum dealing with 1993 projections, focused focused on first time buyers. Among the most important findings, the Fomm concluded: • Conditions for first time buyers have improved dramatically over the last 12 months. • Greater affordability driven by lower interest rates, 5% down, CMHC insured mortgages and to a lesser extend, extend, RRSP home ownership provisions, provisions, have made home purchases more attractive for first time buyers. • Lower prices for moderately priced homes and greater supply, especially especially in the Greater Toronto Area, have sparked renewed interest among first time buyers. • While there have been tremendous tremendous improvements in affordability in cities like Winnipeg, Regina, Saskatoon, Saskatoon, Edmonton, Winnipeg and Toronto, Toronto, first time buyers are finding it increasingly difficult to find homes in Victoria and Vancouver. • Despite more attractive conditions conditions in the market, the public lack of confidence in the economy and uncertainty uncertainty over jobs continues to hold back many potential buyers and sellers. sellers. • Interest rate levels will continue to fluctuate in the short term, with five year rates remaining in the 8.5% to 9% range. Projections two years out are for interest rates to settle in the 7% to 8% range. • Interest rates will have less impact impact on volume of sales and realtors are advised to focus on providing improved improved quality of service as customers' customers' understanding of market forces becomes more sophisticated. • Market activity through the 90's will be driven more by new Canadians seeking their first homes. The impact of greater migration to B.C. is already having an impact on the levels and types of accommodation available in the Vancouver and Lower Mainland communities. The same factors will have a positive impact on markets in Central and Atlantic Canada.
