It is that time of year again in Lethbridge.  After the weekend the children will return to school.  The busy part of the Lethbridge real estate season will end its summer buzz that seems to happen every year as families scramble to move households across the city or province during the brief 2 month summer break.

 

Here in Lethbridge we always have an increase in the sales numbers for Lethbridge condos, starter homes, and duplex units this time of year.  Many people give up trying to find rental accomodations and just jump in as buyers instead.  Lethbridge real estate does the same thing every August like clockwork.

 

For the smart Lethbridge real estate investors, they are able to time their sales and purchases around the migration of our large student population and use it to maximize their returns.  It is very basic and has worked flawlessly for the 16 plus years I have been in the business.

Lethbridge Real Estate - Lethbridge Realtor & Lethbridge Mortgage Broker

Lethbridge Real Estate

by Lethbridge Realtor and Lethbridge Mortgage Broker

 

lethbridge real estate     I have been helping people buy and sell Lethbridge real estate for almost 17 years now.  I also help them arrange their Lethbridge mortgage financing for the real estate that they purchase.  In the many years that I have been involved in the local Lethbridge real estate industry I have observed the ups and downs of many different markets.

     We had a boom market in about 1993 that was spurred on by the creation of first time home buyers programs which first allowed buyers to purchase Lethbridge real estate with as little as 5% downpayment.  This was huge and really pushed the starter home market which in turn pushed the rest of the market higher.  That boom was followed by a lull in which all the buyers who were interested had jumped in, prices had risen, and there was no more buyers looking to buy.  Inventory rose higher in Lethbridge, and demand softened.  Even at that time the prices stayed pretty flat, but did not really drop.

 

We are currently in the most challenging Lethbridge real estate market in our history.  There are many buyers who purchased at the top of the market and paid top dollar for the homes they purchased at that time.  Many of those buyers were represented by 'new' Realtors who jumped into the business trying to make a quick buck.  Many of those guys are on their way out, many have already left the industry.  Unfortunately, the people they screwed errr sold houses to are in trouble.  Many of them paid more for their Lethbridge real estate than it is worth today.

 

I can say that every client I sold to before, during, and after the boom is currently NOT in that situation.  Every one of my buyers was able to purchase bargain priced real estate or make use of creative financial terms which have allowed every one of them to have purchased well below 'market value' and as such they are all sitting okay even as prices have softened in Lethbridge.

 

If you are interested in buying real estate in Lethbridge, it is of the greatest importance that you purchase property at the right price and also that you purchase the right property.  If you are interested in paying 'too much' or 'retail' for real estate, there are plenty of real estate franchises in Lethbridge who will help you with that.  If you are interested in hunting down undervalued, underpriced, and high potential real estate you need to be working with a real estate professional who has a track record of finding and selling those properties.

Lethbridge Real Estate Search Online

Lethbridge Real Estate - Searching the Internet

 

An increasing number of people in Lethbridge search the internet for real estate.  The type and variety of searches is still relatively small compared to larger real estate markets, but it is growing.  As a Lethbridge real estate professional it is important to have a presence on the internet so that when these 'Lethbridge real estate' searches happen you can be found.

Every month the most popular searches in Lethbridge changes, some of the popular searches this week are:

    mls lethbridge
    lethbridge homes for sale
    real estate in lethbridge
    maxwell real estate lethbridge
    remax real estate lethbridge
    lethbridge acreages
    royal lepage lethbridge
    remax lethbridge
    century 21 lethbridge
    lethbridge commercial real estate
    re max real estate lethbridge

 

One of the interesting observations is that people are having to search for the large franchise Lethbridge real estate companies on google, which points to the fact that their internet presence and internet marketing is not very established in the minds of Lethbridge real estate consumers.  Also, a couple of the smaller Lethbridge real estate franchises are not even on the list.

Lethbridge Social Media Marketing

Lethbridge Social Media Marketing

It is known by several different names.  Some call it Lethbridge social media marketing, while others refer to it as Lethbridge social network marketing, but either way it refers to the same sort of strategy, taking the marketing of your business and making use of the various social and networking websites that we all seem to frequent.

lethbridge social media marketing

In my community there are still very few people who have active accounts at most social networks, however there are more and more every day.  It seems that currently these Lethbridge social media networks are actually frequented by more marketers than actual consumers.  My local twitter chatter is pretty much entirely spam messages as an example.

 

One of the businesses I am involved in is known as Lethbridge Marketing.com (LethbridgeMarketing.com) and we help local businesses establish and manage their internet presence.  More specifically, our goal is to rank your business #1 on Google.

 

If you are interested in:

Lethbridge Twitter Marketing

Lethbridge Facebook Marketing

Lethbridge  Kijiji Marketing

Lethbridge PPC Marketing

Lethbridge Social Marketing

Then you need to get in touch with me or my business associates and sit down and formulate a plan.  The bottomline is that any businesses not working with us will soon be surpassed by the businesses that are.

$0 Down Mortgages - Zero Down Mortgages

$0 Down Mortgages

 

Ever hear of a mortgage that you could get with $0 downpayment?  Well they exist.  You can effectively buy a home with ZERO downpayment!

 

Back before the major economic collapse of the US real estate market they were much more commonly available, but the turmoil in the market make lenders scared to offer this product for the past while.  However, as Canada appears to be a bit stronger economically than the rest of the world, the zero down mortages are once again being marketed to consumers.


What exactly is a $0 down mortgage?

This is a mortgage that includes in it a 'cashback' to the borrower that they can then use to pay for their closing costs and their downpayment funds.


Are they a scam?

No, not in the shady sense of the word.  They are not illegal, unethical, or anything of the sort.  They are however not always the best 'deal' for the consumer.

 

Right now I have available a mortgage product which will give the borrower/home buyer back 5.5% of the purchase price.  This is enough money to pay for a 5% downpayment and also pay their legal costs to purchase a home.  The interest rate on this mortgage is currently 5.69% (it changes daily), which is more than if you had the 5% downpayment funds saved on your own.  However there are a few cases where taking this cashback mortgage may be a financial benefit to you.


How do I get one of these?

The qualifying for these cashback mortgages is slightly harder than a regular mortgage product.  The lenders definetly want a 2 to 3 year solid employment history, as well as a reasonable good credit score and a history of good credit repayment.  These mortgages are not for everyone, and I strongly recommend that if possible every client saves up 5% down and purchases that way instead, but not every client is able to do so and not every real estate purchase opportunity fits that mold.

 

If you want more information on purchasing real estate with no money down and want to know the truth about the mortgage options and requirements, get in touch with me.  This is one of the most misunderstood and over marketed aspects of the real estate industry, yet does exist and is definitely not the right mortgage for everyone.
