Increase your chances of getting your dream house instead of losing it to another buyer, with these easy steps.

  1. Get prequalified for a mortgage. You’ll be able to make a firm commitment to buy and make your offer more desirable to the seller.

  2. Stay in close touch with your real estate sales associate to find out first about new listings that come on the market. And be ready to go see a house as soon as it goes on the market.

  3. Scout out new listings yourself. Look at Internet sites, newspaper ads, and drive by the neighborhood frequently. Maybe you’ll see a brand-new “for sale” sign before anyone else.

  4. Be ready to make a decision. Spend lots of time in advance deciding what you must have so you won’t be unsure when you have the chance to make an offer.

  5. Bid competitively. You may not want to start out offering the absolute highest price you can afford, but don’t try to go too low to get a deal. In a tight market, you’ll lose out.

  6. Keep contingencies to a minimum. Restrictions such as needing to sell your home before you move or wanting to delay the closing until a certain date can make your offer unappealing. In a tight market, you’ll probably be able to sell your house rapidly. Or talk to your lender about getting a bridge loan to cover both mortgages for a short period.

  7. Don’t get caught in a buying frenzy. Just because there’s competition doesn’t mean you should just buy anything. And even though you want to make your offer attractive, don’t neglect inspections that help ensure that your house is sound.

Edmonton's Monthly Rental Market Report 

 
 
Edmonton, January 26, 2012: Historically, December is a slow month for rental activity. This year was no exception as there were fewer listings available for renters to choose from compared to the previous months. As expected, there were less renters in the market searching for homes during this time, but demand picked up again shortly after Christmas.

Average rent in Edmonton through December was $1110. As compared to the previous month, the City of Champions saw only slight changes to the average rent across the region.

Demand for housing in Central and Southwest Edmonton was strong in December, with many focusing their sights on an apartment and only slightly fewer aiming for a house.

Average Rental Price for Edmonton & Area: $1110

Location December 2011 (Change from previous month) November 2011
Edmonton - North West $1050 (-1.9%) $1070
Edmonton - North East $1087 (+0.7%) $1079

HOW TO FIND FORECLOSURES.
 
I get emails often on how to find foreclosures. The most efficient and easiest way to find foreclosures is to have your realtor set you up on auto property notification via email. They can set your account up with specific criteria that will allow you to only receive foreclosures. You can take that a step further and ask your realtor to only send estate sales, judicial sales, corporate relocations sales... ect. The amount of criteria is quite extensive so be sure to be specific when asking your realtor to email you via auto property notification.
 
If you have any questions or would like to be set up on auto property notification feel free to contact me via email or give me a call on my cell.
Thanks,
 
Ryan

I love this little house, not only for the price but for the options to upgrade and build some sweat equity. Flip it or generate a revenue stream via leasing it out.Comparables in the area have gone for almost $20-30k higher. So there is definitely opportunity here for the right person.
 
Feel free to call or email me at anytime with questions you may have.
Thanks,

Ryan
