1 PRESIDENT Cheryl Woolley PRESIDENT ELECT & TREASURER Sandi-Jo Ayers PAST PRESIDENT Kyle Kerr DIRECTORS Jackie Adkins Sheila Aujla Karen Dinnie-Smyth David Langlois Andrew Plank Graden Sol EXECUTIVE OFFICER David Corey January 2, 29 Victoria Real Estate Market responds as expected to the changing market conditions of 28 A total of 375 properties sold in the Victoria Real Estate Board region this December, 8.8 per cent fewer than the 462 properties sold in December 27 and a 24.7 per cent decrease from November 28. Sales of condominiums were down 24.3 per cent from 27 in December with 3 units sold. Sales of single family homes were down 26.6 per cent from December 27 with 74 sold. A grand total of 7,5 properties sold over the course of 28, 2 per cent fewer than the 8,994 sold in sales came in very close to the ten-year average of 7,35 properties sold. Condominium sales totalled 2,62 in 28, compared to 2,783 in 27. Single family home sales were down from 4,69 in 27 to 3,87 in 28. The story arc in real estate this year has been the impact of government influence on a market which was showing signs of levelling out through the latter part of 27, says outgoing Victoria Real Estate Board President Kyle Kerr. All levels of government turned their focus to try to make housing more affordable and attainable across the property spectrum. The federal government s change to mortgage lending qualification rules this year meant many consumers lost 2 per cent of their purchasing power, which contributed to slowing down the pace of the market. On a municipal level, we saw many councils activating how they can influence affordable housing by leveraging current land assets, acquiring new land and creating partnerships to bring new affordable units to market - and that s a very exciting thing for our market in the long term. The provincial government has also promised huge investments into new affordable developments. These developments are important to the long-term growth of our community, because the only way to make more affordable housing in our area is to build it. There were,988 active listings for sale on the Victoria Real Estate Board Multiple Listing Service at the end of December 28, a decrease of 5.2 per cent compared to the month of November but 43.6 per cent more than the,384 active listings for sale at the end of December 27. The Multiple Listing Service Home Price Index benchmark value for a single family home in the Victoria Core in December 27 was $832,. The benchmark value for the same home in December 28 increased by 3.2 per cent to $858,6, lower than November s value of $865,2. The MLS HPI benchmark value for a condominium in the Victoria Core area in December 27 was $464,3, while the benchmark value for the same condominium in December 28 increased by 8.2 per cent to $52,4, slightly more than November's value of $5,5.

2 The market in 29 will continue to be quieter than in previous years, as buyers and sellers adjust to new market conditions and government policies, adds President Kerr. Inventory is still quite low when you look at a longer range, which will continue to put pressure on pricing. Our overall economy is predicted to slow slightly, and that will likely mean a slower increase in interest rates but also slower growth. The good news is that savvy buyers will have more time to find their new homes, and that sellers will be under less pressure if they are planning to move within our market. Remember in evolving markets like ours, it s important to enlist the services of a REALTOR to help you navigate what may be your largest transaction ever.

5 MLS HPI benchmark and value - Single Family Homes The Victoria Real Estate Board uses the MLS Home Price Index (MLS HPI) to report on market trends. The MLS HPI uses the concept of a benchmark home, a notional home with common attributes of typical homes in a defined area. Through the analysis of over ten years of Victoria Real Estate Board MLS sales data, the MLS HPI defined benchmark homes for Victoria in each category (single family homes, townhouses, condos) and for each neighbourhood. The benchmark starting point was 25, where each type of property and neighbourhood was assigned an index value of. Victoria Real Estate Board December 28 Statistics

The active listing count and the sales count can be viewed as indicators of housing supply and demand respectively. Observing the ratio between them can thus help indicate a "buyers' market", where there is sustained downward pressure on prices, and a "sellers' market", where there is sustained upward pressure on prices. Based on a regression analysis performed by the Economics Department of the BC Real Estate Association in each market area of the province, the Sales to Active Listings Ratio for Victoria can be interpreted as follows: - below 4, there is downward pressure on prices (buyers' market) - above 2, there is upward pressure on prices (sellers' market) - in the 4-2 range, there is little pressure on prices either way (balanced market) Victoria Real Estate Board Multiple Listing Service
