The huge and vibrant nation of Canada has many wonderful and diverse provinces, and one of the foremost is the province of British Columbia. Its name has the meaning of splendour undiminished, and when you visit you will see why! The region has a glorious aspect which is recognised widely ; superb mountainous backdrop, great coastline and rich cultural heritage make British Columbia one of the most attractive places to reside in Canada. This remains true of its capital Vancouver for example which has enjoyed the most interest of all the British Columbia real estate opportunities.
Though only emerging from a general property slump in recent times, the real estate scene has not often felt the cold draught of recession. It has instead carried on regardless of the ups and downs suffered by the other provinces of Canada. At present, it is doing fine thank you very much! Potential buyers seem more confident and all looks to be set fine for residential sales this year.
This increase in buyer confidence, and higher demand in tandem with a lower mortgage interest rate has combined to create a positive environment for investors in real estate. Actually, the word on the street is that developers are finding that the younger set are beating the retirees to the bidding post right now! The capital, Vancouver especially, has attracted many home buyers and investors recently in the search for their ideal property. It is not likely there will be a shortage of opportunities in the present market situation.
It is quite possible that the usual prices for investment and residential homes could jump to a 2% increase in the region and maybe even rise to 4 class percent in the capital for certain over the next 12 months. Alongside Vancouver the town of Victoria has also reported close to record sales from last fall. That applies to Fraser Valley too.
Over in the city of Oliver, British Columbia, there are a couple of superb new real estate development projects indicating the tremendous buoyancy of the area. Firstly, Canyon Desert golf resort on the 13,000 hectares of prize band land, and Spirit Ridge adjacent to the Tuc Nuit Lake where a development of around 450 units are being built.
These homes, according to the developers, are said to be priced in the mid- range market area and will be for full or part ownership. Waterfront town houses mixed in with golf course condominiums and top grade hotel suites, make up this exciting development. The location is quite extraordinary, being right on the lakeside where 90 to 100 further units will be grouped around the Golf Lodge itself.
A welcome spin-off from all this development will be the inevitable boost in the tourist business and lots of new local trade's work opportunities. There were plans to develop a wine village that had been moth balled due to the economy, which has now been given the go-ahead. This concept of focusing on genuine rural lifestyles in tandem with wine and tourism, will certainly assist the region to enhance its already established reputation as one of Canada's highest rated wine producing regions.
Yes, British Columbia real estate can now be likened to the old pioneers who came across the Rocky Mountains to carve out a brand-new life with a spirit of positive and innovative forward thinking. Any wise investor or home buyer with that same attitude will feel right at home in this magnificent scenic star of the West.... British Columbia! - 31864
