  • SeaSonS GreetinGS! With the end of 2011 approaching, Royalty Group is proud to announce that we are the fastest growing brokerage in the Downtown and North Shore areas. Our desirable location, one-on-one training programs, office resources, and The Royalty Listings Magazine are some of the key factors for our growth and success. By offering our members competitive fee structures to lower their overhead costs and maximize their productivity, the brokerage grew from just two RealtoRs to ninety-nine agents in just three years.

    We introduced The Royalty Listings magazine in the summer of 2009, as a tool to showcase our agents, their listings, and their real estate insight. We hope the magazine has been a helpful tool for agents, buyers, and sellers in Vancouver. We would like to thank all of our members for their contribution to our success this year as we look forward to new opportunities in the year to come.

  • 1. odors

    All else equal, house odors are the number one deterrent for buyers. Narrowing it down, odors from cigarette smoke and pets are the top nose stingers, with cooking odors and mildew not far behind.Remember, a house thats full of perfumes to cover up the odors is just as bad.

    2. dogs tHat Meet You at tHe door or in tHe driVeWaY

    I love dogs, but the truth is they frighten some people and irritate others. You'll have a much better response from showings if you control your pets.

    3. dirtY BatHrooMs

    Grimy bathrooms are an instant turnoff. If you're serious about selling the home, the extra work is a must.

    4. diMlY lit rooMs

    Our weather usually doesnt help the cause, so try to brighten up your home the best you can. Removing heavy drapes and trimming tree limbs that shadow the house can work wonders.

    5. BusY Wallpaper

    Wallpaper is a personal decorative touch. Even people who love wallpaper rarely like what youve chosen! Remember, its the masses that you must appeal to.

    6. daMp BaseMents

    Dampness or damp smells in the basement throw up a red flag to buyers that the foundation leaks!Most often this occurs because rainwater is being diverted towards the foundation instead of away from it. Go outside the next time it rains and determine where runoff water is going.

    7. Bugs

    Roaches, spiders, any insect that shouldn't be in the house: get rid of them.

    8. poor curB appeal

    Its all about first impressions. You say you can't afford to paint? Okay, but get that yard in top shape and grab a screw-driver to fix those loose doors!

    9. clogged and leakY gutters

    Some people never clean their gutters, and it always makes buyers wonder what else hasn't been maintained.

    10. sellers WHo Hang around for sHoWings

    Yes, you... Leave the house during showings. Home buyers feel awkward if the seller is home!

    10 ways to makehome buyersIf you are selling your home, perhaps it is wise to avoid these Buyer Turnoffs. Most of these you can correct without spending a lot of money.

    After declining 12 per cent in 2010, residential unit sales through the Multiple Listing Service (mls) in BC are forecast to rise by 3 per cent to 77,000 units in 2011 and a further 4 per cent to 80,000 units in 2012. However, BC home sales will remain relatively low by historic measures, falling short of their 10-year average of 87,600 units. While low mortgage interest rates are expected to persist through 2012 accommodating housing demand, headwinds in the global economy will act to restrain BC economic and employment growth.

    BC economic growth slowed from an Olympic charged 3.8 per cent in 2010 to a forecast 2.1 per cent this year. Lack-luster economic performance is largely the result of weaker than expected US economic activity, some belt tightening and deleveraging by households, and the Euro-zone debt crisis.

    Employment growth in the province is estimated to fall to 1.1 per cent this year. While emerging Asian markets have tilted some BC exports in an upward trajectory, domestic demand has stagnated. Retail sales in the province are estimated to in-crease just 1.5 per cent this year after climbing 5 to 6 per cent per annum over much of the last decade. Against this back-drop, moderate consumer demand for housing and relatively flat home prices are forecast through 2012.

    Despite more moderate consumer demand, average home prices have climbed dramatically this year. The average annual BC mls residential price is estimated to increase 12 per cent to $564,600 in 2011. Rather than reflecting market condi-tions, the upward skewing of average price data was the result of a change in regional demand patterns and a shift in the mix of home types sold rather than as a result of a return to pre-recession market froth. By the winter months, most of the upward bias in average price data will have dissipated which will contribute to the average annual BC mls residential price decline of 2.5 per cent to $550,500 in 2012. Market condi-tions in most BC regions are expected to remain in buyers to balanced market conditions, meaning the typical BC home will see little change in value through 2012.

  • investment propertyhow to buy an

    An investment property is a property which generates income through rental. The property up to 4 units falls in residential category. Then it can be financed the same way as owner occupied property through a lender. The lender can be a Bank, Credit Union or Mortgage Lender. There are 2 ways to buy an investment property: income and equity.

    1. Income The income method is for people who show their income. This is the income that you pay tax on. For example an employee with the gross income of $50,000 who pays tax through his/her employment. Another example is for a business owner which shows only $40,000 of his/her income on his/her tax assessment after his/her written off expenses. The gross income of the self employed is usually higher.

    In this method based on your income you can be qualified for a rental/investment property. The down payment require-ment is now 20% based on new rules. This is an Uninsured or Conventional mortgage. The income generated by the invest-ment property can be used in your debt ration calculation in order to qualify you for a mortgage.

    2. Equity:The equity model usually is designed for business for self or self employed people. In this method the income made on the tax documents is not the main concern. However the income needed to qualify your application should be reasonable. But the down payment should be anywhere between 25%-35%. The less income you show the more down is needed.

    Cash Flow:The goal is investment property is usually to have positive cash flow. That means that if you deduct all the costs including mortgage payment, strata/condo fee, annual property tax, property management and maintenance/repair costs from the income by the rental, then it is positive amount.

    Tax Benefits:There is a tax benefit for having a rental or investment property that you can benefit from. The whole rental income is not added to your income but you can write off the following expenses from the income.

    Interest on mortgage Strata/condo fee (if applicable) Annual property tax Property management Maintenance/repair

    Overall Benefits:The goal of having an investment property is to have 1. Cash Flow2. Increased EquityEven if at the beginning of having your mortgage you are break even or in a short fall, in long term when the mortgage principal is paid down with your mortgage or adding the pre-payments you would be positive cash flow.

    The interest only or secured line of credit is not a very good idea as you are enforced to just pay the interest portion of the mortgage. So your principal would not increase.

    You can earn equity in the property by increased price in longer term or as said paying the mortgage down.

    Caution:Having a good tenant is very important. You can use the exper-tise of a good property manager in screening your potential tenant by doing a credit and reference check.

    If you have more questions on how you can purchase an investment property, please do not hesitate to contact me for more details and free consultation. You can find additional information in my web site at www.CityViewMortgage.ca.

    Jennifer Kwokand new clients seek her out as her reputation for tireless work & commit-ment precede her.

    I still remember my first listing; after careful market analysis, staging, photography, advertising, marketing and prep work... I was excited to start hosting an open house every weekend until it sold. In the first open house, more than 50 groups came by and I created a bidding war. It sold in 6 days for well over asking price. My love for selling real estate never stopped since.

    Jennifer has always had a passion for volunteering her time, commitment, and enthusiasm towards community organizations. Whether at the Income Tax Clinic of the Immigrant Services Society, or at the seniors home of the Columbus Residence, she loves being part of the community.

  • Should you rent or should you buy your home? Are you paying someone elses mortgage?

    Buying a home is one of the biggest financial decisions anyone can make. If one makes a right decision, purchasing a home could be the best investment in his/her entire life, on the other hand if their decision is wrong it could destroy their life. So it is impor-tant to know your current financial situation, to be sure that you buy a home that you can afford. Also, you have to see it as a long term investment and not a short term. Home-ownership offers many advantages over renting including:

    For example:

    Lets say youre currently renting a one bedroom, one bathroom apartment, at a monthly rent of $1,400. You would pay $16,800 annually towards rent. Assuming your rent doesnt increase over the next 30 years (highly which is unlikely), then you would have pay $504,000 over 30 years for renting.

    If you buy a one bedroom, one bath at a market price of $300,000 and you have $15,000 saved - enough for a five percent down payment. For the purpose of this example, youre looking to finance $293,407, which includes cmhc premiums. Your monthly payment would be approximately $1,321.47 for a 30-year with term of 5 year fixed loan at an apr of 3.55 percent*.

    Based a study done by Sauder School Business Real Estate division, the average percentage of appreciation of a property in Vancouver, bc is an average of 6 percent per year. Therefore, if you purchase the mentioned property today, after 30 years not only would you pay off your mortgage but the value of your propertys value may increase to $1,500,000 (assuming six percent consecutive increase per year in real estate prices according to the study).

    Since investing in real estate is an important decision and it is usually complex the best approach is to consult with people who are experts in this field such as Mortgage Brokers and Realtor in order to guide the investor through the procedure.*Some conditions may apply and the rates are subject to change without a notice.
