Welcome to the Alta West Mortgage Newsletter!

Does anyone else feel like a). Summer is going by way too quickly, and b). The weather hasn't really cooperated with us this summer?

Alta West  Mortgage News:

Absorption Rate in Calgary
We've now have had five straight months of increased values in Calgary! 30 day average price in Calgary has increased from $413, 000 (January 2009) to $447,000 (June 2009)! That is an increase of 8%. Absorption rate, which represents the number of sales compared to the number of listings- has declined from a high of 7.8 in January to 1.8 in June. A balanced market is considered to be around 3-4 (one sale per 3-4 listings) Although it appears that there is little real estate activity, this would be incorrect. There were 1837 sales on single family homes in Calgary in June 2009. The last time this occurred was in May 2007. Real Estate is moving, so get in the game now!

Low Interest Rates to Stay
Recently in the Financial Post, there was some better lending news. The Bank of Canada is expected to keep its prime lending rate to a historic low of .25% until the latter half of 2010! This is fantastic news for the Canadian consumer, who has had a terrible year with job issues, devaluation of their stock portfolio, and a decrease of their house value, you at least COULD be saving $100's of dollars every month by remortgaging your home. Take advantage of these low mortgage rates while they are here. The Bank of Canada watched the Canadian economy go through "nine straight months" of contraction. It has been the biggest down turn in more then half a century. We all need to save every dime we can!

We have made the application process extremely easy for you. It takes all but three minutes via our new online application. Visit our website and Apply Online Today!!!!

 
We look forward to our continued relationship!
