Most of the buyers should be more rational. Many of them have no specific expectations from their new home and sometimes are easily pushed to buying the first property they see which often leads to disappointment. This all can be prevented if only the buyers followed advices like this list of yours. Cheers, Jay. </p> I absolutely agree with this list. Most of the buyers should be more rational.

Young families can`t afford expensive living and it`s not just young people but almost half the population. And now that the motgage restrictions have been made, it`s more and more difficult to fing "cheap" living. That price graph you posted is interesting. It truly shows that the buyer now dictates the prices of condos and not the sellers. But how long will it stay that way? I`d really like to know if the prices, that I`ve seen, are really going to continue to drop, or will it just be temporary and the buyers market will again becom a frenzied sellers market.</p><br /> <p>Jay</p> Nicely put:"Got to start somewhere."

I enjoyed reading your practical information related to the main questions you scetched out. A complex market research is obviously needed before buying the right house and many other factors have to be considered, indeed. Sometimes even the neighbours matter ;) Being a &lt;a href="http://jaybanks.ca"&gt;Vancouver real estate agent&lt;/a&gt; myself, I consider those steps essential and so, I think they are to be focused on in this field of business accordingly, in order to provide not only the good quality services, but also to prevent future complications.

It is really interesting to&#160; analyze&#160; market reality this way. Many factors you are writing about forecast optimistic numbers, however, as a &lt;a href="http://jaybanks.ca"&gt;Vancouver realtor&lt;/a&gt; I consider paying an emphasis on the prices and following their development (which of course will be affected globally) as an innegligable part of analyses, as well.</p> I really appreciate your little research about the market based on facts and not just impressions, as well as  the possible future  prognosis.
