Comments on: Worst quarterly deterioration of housing affordability on record for Saskatchewan: RBC http://teamfisher.com/worst-quarterly-deterioration-of-housing-affordability-on-record-for-saskatchewan-rbc/ We're bringing Saskatoon real estate to life Tue, 22 May 2012 16:41:18 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Norm Fisher http://teamfisher.com/worst-quarterly-deterioration-of-housing-affordability-on-record-for-saskatchewan-rbc/#comment-7006 Norm Fisher Thu, 09 Apr 2009 15:08:47 +0000 http://normfisher.ca/?p=342#comment-7006 Smart ass! :) Interesting observations. I am seeing a bit of a surge in traffic on my website and the phone has certainly been ringing a bit more again. What's most interesting is that most of the calls and emails are coming from out of the city again. A few investors, and several "moving to Saskatoon" inquiries. I'm not sure that it means much but I'm sure the numbers will tell more of the story. It doesn't look like sales are lighting the world on fire. We're showing just over 50 for the first few days of the week. It's almost ceratin that the sales numbers will be higher than last week but I expect total inventory will also be up. We crossed the 600 mark today for the first time this year. Only 6 of 26 new listings today have the "delayed presentation" of offers note so buyers who want to purchase will have to be on the ball and start inquiring on new listings quickly. Smart ass! :)

A 50% increase in housing tends to do that. I'm getting a little excited about the next few weeks of stats. Norm, have you noticed a slight increase in activity the past week? In July and August a lot of property I inquired about was available. It seems like this past week 85% of what I've looked in to has pending offers. I recently asked about 6 properties the past 2 days ( All of which had been on the market only a few days ). Every one of them is sold, 1 of them got 10 offers on it. No real suprise there.
