moderately unaffordable

By
Real Estate Agent with Marty Edwards Realty Inc.
Saskatoon has been given a new label. With the boom in housing values, Demographia International Housing Affordability Survey places Saskatoon in the category "moderately unaffordable".

Even though this new label does come with some downfalls, it has a positive spin as well.

Again, I am referring to supply and demand.

The main reason for the increase in home values is because more people are wanting to live in Saskatoon.

As more people want to live in Saskatoon, the prices will continue to rise.

Sounds like I'd rather hear this than the city you live in has the most REO's in all of California...

Marty,  I'm inviting you to join an active|rain group of your fellow Canadian REALTORS® , the Canada, eh group - http://activerain.com/groups/Canada.

And please include any of your posts with a Canadian angle by also posting them to the group.
(no properties for sale please, listings should be posted to Localism.com)

When I login to ActiveRain.com I always check the Canada, eh group first to read the Canadian posts because Canadian bloggers are so much easier to find on the group home page. I'm looking forward to reading your posts there.

Also, one of our Canadian members wrote an informative post on how to get started her on active|rain - http://activerain.com/blogsview/174164/A-Post-For-Tim
