Today, published with recycled newsprint from its own high-speed presses in Vancouver, Real Estate Weekly is delivered by British Columbia's largest courier force to over 450,000 homes across the Lower Mainland. A total of 11 separate editions comprise the Real Estate Weekly, each featuring homes for sale, new developments and quality editorial coverage of the housing industry and the communities. Real Estate Weekly, quite simply, lists more homes for sale from more Realtors than any other publication in British Columbia. Real Estate Weekly is the number one source for Lower Mainland residential real estate and the first choice of both homebuyers and Realtors for more than three decades.

Looking to BUY or SELL a home? To assist you in making the best decisions,
a professional Realtor can provide the most
up to date information on the real estate
market, price, fi nancing and comparative
properties in your area.
Find your EXPERT Real Estate professional right here in REW.ca!
A common topic among real estate buyers is whether or not they should off er a price
that is much lower than the listed price. It’s an interesting concept, but one that is not without its pitfalls. Submitting an off er is one thing, but getting the off er accept-ed is another thing altogether. Let’s take a look at three diff erent factors to consider.
1) Be Certain You Fully Understand Market Conditions
In a market like Vancouver and
the Lower Mainland we are often
faced with an inevitable real-
ity – people really like living here.
Sellers are more than aware of
this, and are primed to take full
advantage.
Having a look at comparable
properties in the area that have
sold going back as far as two years
(or further) will give you a good
understanding of what the seller is
expecting. Maybe they’ve already
priced it low to encourage multiple
off ers or a quick sale? If that’s the
case, it’s likely they won’t even
submit a counter off er.
As real estate agents we are
very much held to account by what
the market will bear, and buyers
and sellers are not immune to this
either.
2) Make Sure You Are Willing To Negotiate
Starting will a low off er could be
considered disrespectful or a bul-
lying tactic. If that’s the case, why
not submit another off er slightly
higher if you don’t hear back from
the seller? If the goal is to get the
ball rolling on negotiations, being
fl exible can enhance the likelihood
of this occurring.
The #1 rule of real estate is to
not take things personally, so if
you plan of submitting an off er
that is substantially lower than the
listed price, make sure you off er
the seller something in return.
3) Your Offer Should Be As Clean As Clean Can Be
If price is your primary concern,
then the other subjects in the off er
should be valuable to the seller.
Is off ering a quick possession of
value? You never truly know some-
one’s motivation for selling – for
all you know this money could
be keeping a business afl oat or
needed to bail a family member out
of fi nancial trouble.
There is one thing that is con-
stant throughout the world, and
that is money makes it go round.
And cash is king! Use any superla-
tive you want, but quick money
can off er be a great thing to off er
a seller. Excluding the fi nancing
clause and off ering a large deposit
will let the other party know you
are serious and able to act quickly.
As a real estate agent in
Vancouver I personally prefer to
avoid lowball off ers, but a lot of
agents who work with investors are
more comfortable with this strat-
egy. It’s not my preferred way of
doing business, but at the end of
the day it’s always ultimately my
client’s decision whether or not
they want to submit or accept an
off er that is substantially lower
than the listed price.

Despite the seemingly unstoppable rise in resale house prices in Metro Vancouver, the price of a newly built home in the city continued to drop in January this year, according to Statistics Canada fi gures released March 12.
New homes in the area fell 0.1 per cent com-pared with December 2014 and 0.6 per cent year over year, continuing the trend of recent months.
The New Housing Price Index also fell 0.6 per cent year over year and 0.1 per cent month over month across the whole of BC.
Victoria saw Canada’s biggest new home price decrease in January, dropping 1.5 per cent com-
pared with January last year, as well as 0.5 per cent since December.
Vancouver and Victoria were two of only eight metropolitan regions to report decreases in new home prices in January, out of a total of 21 areas surveyed.
The index combines both home and land val-ues. As in previous months, the above decreases in value were entirely attributed to developers reporting a drop in negotiated home prices, with land values remaining unchanged for several months.
Across Canada, the index increased 1.4 per cent year over year but fell 0.1 per cent month over month.
Calgary again reported the country’s biggest jump in new home prices in January, rising 5.1 per cent year over year.
