转帖Calgary home priceswill drop
Calgary home prices will drop, professor says Housing prices in Calgary will drop because of new federal mortgage rules, a university professor predicts. Federal Finance Minister Jim Flaherty announced new rules Tuesday aimed at preventing homebuyers from getting into financial difficulty when mortgage rates rise. One rule requires a minimum 20 per cent down payment to qualify for Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation insurance for non-owner-occupied properties purchased as an investment. "Overall, I don't think it will affect the market all that greatly. You will still buy a house, you just might not buy as big a house as you would have expected before."— Todd Fralic, mortgage broker This will affect home flippers who drive up prices, hurting buyers and homeowners, said University of Calgary business professor Jim Dewald. "If we have an oversupply because of speculative prices, frankly that affects everyone of us," he said. "In Calgary our home values are going to go down. It's an imbalance and it's a false market that's creating that imbalance, so I support straightening that out and making the rules more rigorous." Ottawa's tighter rules, which come into effect April 19, are a good move, he said. "Some could easily argue that this entire financial crisis we've had was primarily based on lending practices in the U.S., primarily where people were not properly qualified, were speculating and buying units they were not planning on living in just to flip. And that's not a healthy marketplace." |
