it sucks out here so bad for houses. its worst then edmonton and calgary. to get into anything nice in a good area your looking at about 500-700g which is retarted.
houses in the ghetto that were originally going for 40-60g are up in the 100-200's now. my rents paid 15g for the house we are in now and they were offered 90g for it. but we love the house so much and my rents plan on just giving it to me in a few years.
definitely a sellers market. they said pricing was supposed to come down but i have yet to see much difference and even with the market being flooded now prices still seem really high.
i ended up putting my money into a house in arizona which i am going to start renting to family. just out side of mesa is a small area called queen creek. picked up 4000sq foot house, 3 car garage, pool, 0 landscape for 110g. if the market in the US ever does go back up i could try and sell or i can keep it for when i retire in 22 years.
