Winnipeg Real Estate Market Forecast 2013 - Part 2.

Six months ago I had penned my opinion on the Winnipeg real estate market for 2013.  This had been based on current subtle market trends from the Winnipeg Multiple Listing Service information.  You can read this article from the following link, http://hitzerblog.blogspot.ca/2013/01/winnipeg-real-estate-market-forecast.html.  Well here we are mid year and I felt compelled to write a follow-up article on our 2013 Winnipeg real estate market since January's story.

To June 30, 2013, there have been 6,431 properties that have sold.  This compares to 6,921 for the same six month period in 2012.  This is a decline of seven percent.  New listing inventory has reached 10,677 to June 30, 2013, compared to 10,337 to the end of June, 2012.  This is a rise of three percent year to year.  The sales to listing ratio, homes that have sold versus the amount of homes that had entered the real estate market, is sixty percent year-to-date.  The change from 2013 to 2012 is a decline of ten percent.  as predicted, the Winnipeg real estate market in 2013 continues to have a slight increase in listing inventory and decrease in buyer activity.

What does this information really mean for the Winnipeg real estate market?  What impact will this have on a homeowner and their property equity?  What significance will this have on today's homebuyer?  Should this real estate market trend continue the way it has now for almost twenty-four months; how will this influence the Winnipeg real estate market in 2014?  Are we at the doorstep of a housing bubble in Winnipeg where it has happened in other major Canadian cities?  How could this possibly happen when interest rates remain at historical lows coupled with our confident local economy?  If you are plan on selling a home, what should you do?  If you are planning on buying a house, what should you do?  Is real estate property in Winnipeg still a safe investment?

There are certainly many questions to consider concerning the Winnipeg real estate market.  To be frank, I wish I could foretell the future and provide you with the answers to the real estate information you seek.  Instead, I will offer my opinion on what I do know about our Winnipeg real estate market in 2013 and what your best strategy should be if you plan on selling, buying, or investing in our local real estate market.

We can all agree the Winnipeg real estate market is always on the move, and because of this fact, we can always be assured our Winnipeg real estate market continues to change.  We now know four out of ten properties do not sell when a homeowner decides to sell their home.  On average, a home on the Winnipeg real estate market listed for sale with a real estate agent will take twenty-two days to sell.  If you have a valid reason to sell your property in Winnipeg you do not want to be one of the four out of ten homes that does not sell.  How can you change your circumstance when selling your home?

Most people believe they are an expert in real estate even though they may be a plumber, doctor, police officer, homemaker, I can go on and on.  I'll break it to you gently, you are not a real estate expert.   In fact, far from it.  When working with a real estate agent that prides themselves in market knowledge, ethical and honest conduct, proven marketing strategies, effective communication and genuine care about your real estate investment, then and only then are you working with a real estate expert.  There is so much more to a lawn sign and several real estate advertisements.  listen to a real estate expert because they work hard to serve your best interest while protecting you at the same time.

I continue to remain confident about our Winnipeg real estate market in 2013 even though our real estate market changes and evolves continuously.  What hasn't changed is when you hire a real estate expert.  He or she will provide you with market facts to help you make sound, logical and proper financial decisions on your real estate investment and your desire to move forward with your lifestyle decisions.

27 Viking Way, Bird River, Manitoba.

This log cabin is located approximately one and a half hours northeast from Winnipeg, Manitoba, and just before the Bird River bridge.  You are at the doorstep of Nopiming Provincial Park and in the heart of the Canadian Shield from this location.  Whether it is spring, summer, autumn, or winter, each new season brings different outdoor activities to be enjoyed.  The nearest townsite is Lac du Bonnet, Manitoba and you can get there by land or water. 

The log cabin was built upon a natural granite ridge that rises about one hundred and twenty-five feet above the Bird River valley.  Being at this elevation above the river often leaves people with a quiet appreciation of the rugged landscape, or with the comment, "this is a million dollar view".  Venturing down the granite ridge has certain steep areas and also what feels like walking through a rain forest as you reach the Bird River on this property.  At the shoreline there is a forty-five foot dock and includes a winch to help lift the dock frame out of the water before winter ice.  Fisheries and Oceans has also approved the owner to place pea stone on top of the clay in the river bottom.

The interior of the cabin is all log and the trees to build this cottage were harvested from Kenora, Ontario.  A great room greets you as you enter this log structure with a large living room appointed with pine plank flooring to maintain the rustic ambiance of the cabin and the rugged Canadian Shield country.  A kitchen with an adequate working island allows everyone to be engaged in conversation when hosting friends and family.  Off of the kitchen is a patio door that leads you into a floor to cathedral ceiling screened gazebo.  This open space literally allows you to experience the full impact of the outdoors, the panoramic view of the Bird River valley, and yet avoid the annoyance of biting insects.  Often at night you can watch Brown Bats fly by as they feast on mosquito's, or hear a pack of Timber Wolves eerie howls break the silence of the dark forest.

Through the screen door of the gazebo leads you onto a large deck that follows parallel to the log cabin along the eastside.  The log cottage also features three bedrooms and a loft area ideal for additional storage or sleeping quarters.  The property also includes a three piece seasonal bathroom where water is drawn from the river for the shower.

The log cabin is on pad and post on top of the stone from the granite ridge.  A metal storage shed is also included.  The property itself is on Hydro leased land.  At the time of writing this blog post; Manitoba Hydro is in the process of surveying and appraising the land on Viking Way to give the property owners the option to continue leasing from Hydro, or buying the land at fair market value.

The log has been vacant for several years and does require some tender loving care.  With some elbow grease and repairs it wouldn't take much to shine this diamond in the rough.  There are sixty-four kilometers of uninterrupted waterways if you are an angler, or boating enthusiast.  During the winter this entire area boasts some of the best sledding trails in the entire province of Manitoba.  For more information, or if you wish to view this log cabin, please contact Rolf Hitzer at Royal Lepage Top Producers, 1-204-989-6900.

59 Wood Duck Bend, Waterfront in Lac du Bonnet, Manitoba.

Only one hour and fifteen minutes from Winnipeg is where you can enjoy this custom built four season waterfront home on the Lee River shoreline.  Off of your private dock you have sixty-five kilometers of uninterrupted waterways to explore and enjoy amongst some of the most scenic country Manitoba has to offer.  59 Wood Duck Bend is tucked away in the Cape Coppermine area and minutes from Granite Hills Golf Course, Pinawa Golf Course and all the amenities of the Lac du Bonnet townsite.  Other attractions to this close drive from Winnipeg are endless and caters to four seasons of world class activities like angling, wildlife viewing, berry and mushroom picking, hiking, canoe routes, sledding, summer and winter skiing, a range of water sports and hunting to mention a few.  A perfect escape from the rat race of city living where you can indulge yourself in Canadian Shield country to unwind and share life long memories.

The 1919 square foot bungalow with 2 x 6 walls and maintenance free exterior was custom built with meticulous care by the current owner.  Enveloped with coniferous and deciduous trees gives this property privacy from every property line other than the shoreline.  An oversized 24 x 30 foot garage allows for two vehicles and sleds, or ATV's.  The rancher is built on piles and grade beam to insure the large structure's integrity.  At the front of the property you are welcomed by a landscaped yard hugging Lee River where the pristine waterway can be soaked in from a deck that borders the entire front of the home.  Enough room to entertain family and friends with comfort and elbow room.  Savour the tranquility of the morning sunrise with your first cup of coffee on your private dock.  The Lee River is a no flood zone area that protects you with your property investment.

Upon entering the interior you are greeted by a spacious Great Room with floor to ceiling windows and a panoramic view of Lee River and Manitoba's rugged landscape.  A Blaze King woodstove appointed with floor to ceiling stone is the center-piece of the vast room encased with tongue and groove v-joint knotty pine walls.  All materials used to construct this property were above the construction standards and the fact the rambler was built with homeownership pride is clear and evident.

Off of the large Great Room are three bedrooms with a four piece bathroom.  The master bedroom features a three piece ensuite.  Passing through the dining room leads you to a custom country kitchen with a movable five foot island that would garner Martha Stewarts approval.  Pot drawers and roller systems makes this kitchen a pleasure to create new and tried, tested and true meals,  And like most homes, a wonderful room to spend time in.  Much thought was put behind the design of this home that also includes a main floor laundry and storage room.

With entertainment in mind, or to simply cleanse your soul from the stress of a working week, there is a cedar sunroom featuring a six person Hot Tub with a breathtaking view of the Lee River and Canadian Shield countryside.  A patio door leads you outside to your private deck to soak in the sun, or to be awestruck by the sea of stars and the Milky Way belting through the night sky.



The current asking price of this luxury home is below replacement cost.  Included with the property is power to your dock, inground sprinkler system, electric furnace, central-air, HRV, fridge, stove, washer and dryer.  Alarm is owned and monitored and the custom built home is roughed in for central vacuum.  Your dream home and four season lifestyle awaits you, for your personal inspection of this home simply call me at 1-204-960-2159, Royal Lepage Top Producers, or email me at hitzer@aol.com.
