Designing Dubai: Lessons in Urban Revolution with Gordon Stratford of HOK

Roch St-Georges (Exit Realty Matrix) — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 12:52:49 -0600

Wednesday, November 25, 2009 @ 7pm
Champlain Room, Ottawa City Hall, 110 Laurier Ave West

Not unlike the classic story of the tortoise and the hare, some cities move forward through slow, steady growth while others experience rapid, chaotic change. As communities increasingly compete against each other on the global stage, what can we learn from those in the grip of urban revolution? Are there lessons that can infuse a new dynamic into cities that don't move as quickly?

As a worldwide multi-disciplinary design practice HOK's 50+ years of life has provided a unique opportunity to participate in this age of contradiction. Drawing upon this experience we will explore Dubai and other communities undergoing different yet equally extreme change. Along the way we will highlight potential lessons learned that may have relevance in Ottawa.

Gordon Stratford, B.Arch, OAA, MRAIC, LEED® AP, TSA Senior Vice President | Director of Design, HOK

Gordon is responsible for the creative vision of HOK's multidisciplinary, sustainability-driven Canadian design team. Leading a team of planners, urban designers, architects and interior designers, Gordon has been responsible for numerous local projects, including the University Health Network, Humber River Regional Hospital, Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre's M-Wing Vertical Expansion, Honda Canada's new headquarters, and the City of Toronto Tall Building Study. A LEED® Accredited Professional, Gordon is a member of the Toronto Society of Architects, Ontario Association of Architects, and Royal Architectural Institute of Canada. He frequently speaks at design and planning conferences and is Chair of the Toronto Design Review Panel, and a Member and Past Chair of the Brant Community Healthcare System Board of Directors.

Revised MLS Home Sales Forecast

Roch St-Georges (Exit Realty Matrix) — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 14:36:53 -0600

OTTAWA – November 16, 2009 – Monthly MLS® home sales activity continues to run strong, with new monthly records set in July, September, and October. This has prompted The Canadian Real Estate Association to revise its MLS® home sales forecast for 2009 and 2010.

CREA now forecasts national activity will reach 460,200 units in 2009, up 6.6 per cent from last year. CREA’s previous forecast issued in August had annual sales this year about even with 2008 levels. The new sales forecast for 2009 puts activity about on par with annual activity in 2004, but below levels reported for the years 2005 through 2007.

British Columbia and Ontario are still forecast to post annual increases in activity this year, but the forecast has been lifted as a result of recent record level activity in both provinces. In addition, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Quebec, and Prince Edward Island are also now forecast to post an annual increase in activity in 2009. Forecast declines in annual activity have been trimmed for Manitoba and Nova Scotia, and are little changed for New Brunswick and Newfoundland and Labrador.

National MLS® home sales activity is forecast to rise seven per cent to 492,300 units in 2010. This is a slightly larger rise in activity than previously forecast. This would make 2010 the second highest year on record for sales, putting activity below the peak reached in 2007, and slightly above the 2005 and 2006 figures. New annual records are forecast for Manitoba and Quebec in 2010.

The forecast increase in activity for 2010 reflects significant weakness in activity recorded in the first quarter of 2009. Monthly activity in 2010 is expected to trend downward from recent heights, but the sharp drop inactivity recorded in the in the first quarter of 2009 is not expected to repeat in 2010.

New listings began declining in the third quarter of 2008, as many sellers took their home off the market pending an improvement in housing market conditions. CREA’s previous forecast suggested that average price increases in the second half of 2009 would likely result in mild a rebound in listings. In the third quarter of 2009, the number of new listings did post the first quarterly increase in more than a year, which coincided with the return of strong average price increases. New residential listings are expected to continue trending upward.

The national MLS® average home price is forecast to climb 4.2 per cent in 2009, reaching a record $317,900. This is an upward revision from the 1.5 per cent gain in CREA’s previous forecast, and reflects the high degree to which the national average price was skewed downward last year by a significant decline in activity in Canada’s priciest markets, and then upward by the rebound in activity.

Alberta remains the only province with a forecast decline in average price in 2009 (-3.0 per cent). Average prices are forecast to rise in all other provinces, with gains ranging from a low of 1.5 per cent in British Columbia to 13.1 per cent in Newfoundland and Labrador.

Average prices are forecast to climb a further 4.7 per cent in 2010. Much of the annual increase reflects weakness in the average price in first quarter of 2009, which is not expected to repeat in 2010. Average sale prices are forecast to rise in every province in 2010.

The price trend is similar but less dramatic for the weighted national MLS® average price, which compensates for changes in provincial sales activity by taking into account provincial proportions of privately owned housing stock. The weighted national MLS® average price is forecast to climb 2.9 per cent in 2009, with a further 4.0 per cent rise in 2010. CREA previously forecast that the weighted national average price for MLS® homes sales would hold steady from 2009 to 2010.

“Pent-up demand built in late 2008 and early 2009, as many buyers moved to the sidelines pending an improved economic outlook,” said CREA President Dale Ripplinger. “With the economic outlook having improved since then, the release of that pent-up demand will boost activity over the rest of the year and in 2010.”

“Significant weakness in activity and average prices seen in late 2008 and earlier this year is not expected to repeat in 2010, so 2010 will look a lot better by comparison,” said CREA Chief Economist Gregory Klump. “The raised outlook for MLS® sales activity in 2010 still puts annual activity below the pre-recession peak recorded for 2007.”

Should you buy a Single Family Home or Townhouse in Avalon, Orleans, (Ottawa), Ontario

Roch St-Georges (Exit Realty Matrix) — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 07:54:37 -0600

Are you debating buying a new construction home but can’t seem to be able to choose between a single family home and town house? Although there is many factors to take in consideration when buying a home I will basically go over the investment view on this subject to find out which style of will get you the biggest bang for your buck once you sell. All this data was taken from the Avalon neighbourhood located in Orleans, (Ottawa), Ontario.

I’ve compared prices of homes that sold this year with the price the home was originally purchased from the builders to find the average increase per year.

On average single family homes in the Avalon neighbourhood of Orleans (Ottawa) increased 15.5% on average over the years. On the other hand town homes (row units) in that same neighbourhood of Avalon increase 9.06% on average.

This being said it single family homes in Avalon increased in value quicker than town houses (row units) in that same neighbourhood.

Please note that this research is not scientific and many factors affect home prices and their increase through time. When buying for investment purposes make sure to analyse all factors.

Should you have any questions or would like to sale you current home in the Avalon neighbourhood of Orleans, (Ottawa), Ontario please give me a call at 613-889-7732
