Hot Real Estate Topics of the Summer of 2008.A quick overview of the hot topics around the BBQ this Summer.
Suddenly it seems live everyone you meet at a summer BBQ is a real estate expert and they want to share with you all of their extensive knowledge about how the world will end.
If you have seen the Lotto commercial with the the two snobby `rich` people talking about what to where at a BBQ and what to speak about you will understand that the ad is funny because it has a base of truth to it. Their one comment is while at the BBQ with those who haven`t won a lotto, "talk about fuel costs because they like that." Well that commercial should now be changed to `talk about interest rates and property values."
Here is part 1 of an overview of these hot topics and some analysis of each one, I trust you`ll find it useful to have some perspective based in the reality of the market. In part 1 we discuss:
BBQ Topic #1 Elimination of zero down mortgages and 40 year amortizations.
BBQ Topic #2 First time in 6 years that average year-over-year Canadian Real Estate price was ‘down’
BBQ Topic #3 What’s next for interest rates, there is talk of rising Bank of Canada interest rates
BBQ Topic #4 There seems to be inflation on the horizon. What does inflation mean to Real Estate Investors?

Next post will cover more BBQ topics:
In the next post I’ll be discussing other hot topics of the summer BBQ season:
* The US housing markets,
* The US economy,
* Energy & commodity prices and how they are going to affect certain markets in Canada,
* How a Saudi Arabia investment will affect Canadian real estate demand
* How REIN predicted the massive changes to the automotive industry in Ontario June 5th 2005 and how that past prediction can help you today.
* How market sentiment can affect your property values even when economics don’t change
* And other hot BBQ topics important to investors
Please remember that the Western Canada REIN conference is coming very soon (August 23rd) where we will be releasing the BRAND NEW Top 10 Alberta Investment Towns as well as other research revealed for the first time. REIN Members attend FREE as part of their Membership. Here is a link to other details on this annual event.
