Saskatoon Real Estate Market Update – June 25, 2008

Thursday, June 26th, 2008

The current Saskatoon real estate market is DEFINITELY a buyer’s market which we haven’t seen in quite some time! Bring on the buyers is what I say as it is finally your turn with the Saskatoon real estate market being flooded with new listings. There are more listings now than ever before and some of the people selling their homes in Saskatoon are very motivated. This means a better time for you to buy, but keep in mind, not all houses for sale in Saskatoon are going to negotiate on price.

The Saskatoon real estate market has leveled out, prices are stabilizing, sellers are sometimes needing to sell therefore negotiating more on price.

Buyers are a bit overwhelmed with all the listings on the market in Saskatoon, but they can be a bit more picky than before.

So, if you are looking to buy a home in Saskatoon, the time is now. Our economy is so strong for the next 10 years plus that it is still a smart place to buy properties for investment in the future.

Whether you are looking at buying or selling real estate in the Saskatoon or surrounding area I would be happy to assist you.  Be sure to contact me and I will provide you additional information and help you in anyway I can!

Saskatoon Nutana Collegiate Receives Money For Reno’s

Monday, June 9th, 2008

Nutana Collegiate is a Saskatoon high school that has been long overdue to get some renovations.  The school is reaching its 100 year anniversary and has been given $8.5 million dollars in government funding to be applied to a wide variety of renovations that the school desperately needs.  These renovations will include everything ranging from mechanical & electrical services to the installation of an elevator for accessibility for disabled individuals.

Nutana Collegiate is the oldest high school in Saskatoon and was the first secondary school established.  It also served as the first home for the University of Saskatchewan in 1910 until 1912 until the long term campus was developed.  Nutana has a long history in the city of Saskatoon.

For those of you that are either looking to buy or sell real estate in the Nutana neighbourhood, this is excellent news.  With the Saskatoon real estate market becoming a stabilized market again it is important to take note when big changes like these take place in your neighbourhood.  Nutana is a sought after area due to its close proximity to the Broadway, which offers a host of small speciality shops.  People also really enjoy Nutana because you are right close to the river and also the downtown core of the city.

If you are interested in either buying or selling real estate in the Nutana area or anywhere else in Saskatoon or the surrounding areas, be sure to contact me and I would be more than happy to assist you.

Saskatoon Recieves 2 More Red-Light Cameras

Monday, June 9th, 2008

For those of you who currently live in Saskatoon, you are well aware of the red light cameraon Circle Drive in the north end of the city.  This camera has generated more than just a few tickets but has also helped reduce accidents and bad driving through this area which previously was notorious for accidents.  In the first year alone the camera handed out more than $460,000 worth of tickets and cut people running the red light by 92 per cent. 

The city of Saskatoon has approved the installation of 2 more red-light cameras in the city.  The first camera will be installed on 8th street and Preston Avenue.  This intersection is a major one in the city of Saskatoon as it is the major go through road between College and 8th.  The second camera will be installed on 51st Street and Warman Road.  Both of these intersections have a history of people running red lights and as a result a lot of accidents happening.

With the city of Saskatoon growing, we will continue to see more additions of this.  As any city grow more strain is put on traffic and it seems that people drive a little bit more aggressive.  These cameras are planned to be installed by the end of the summer so be sure to take note and drive safe!
