House prices face another leap in 2007
Ten-per-cent rise predicted for city

OTTAWA - Edmonton home prices will rise 10 per cent next year -- double the national average -- as increasing supply hits the market, a major real estate firm predicted Wednesday.

Prices will average $265,900 in 2007 after jumping an estimated 25 per cent to $241,750 in 2006, Re/Max said in its latest housing price outlook.

Edmonton residential MLS sales are projected to rise five per cent in 2007 to 21,300 after jumping nine per cent this year. The city trails only Saskatoon, with a seven-per-cent increase in sales expected next year.

Calgary is the only other major Canadian city expected to record double-digit price increases in 2007 with a 10-per-cent boost pushing the average to $385,000. Prices are projected to jump 40 per cent during 2006.

"Homebuyers across the country will breathe a sigh of relief in 2007, thanks to a nationwide influx of new listings that is expected to slow price appreciation in major Canadian centres," Re/Max said.

After four years of double-digit gains, the average price of a home is predicted to climb a modest five per cent to $290,000 next year, it said.

All but three of the 17 cities it surveyed -- Kitchener-Waterloo, Ont., St. John's, Nfld., and Charlottetown -- will see further home price increases next year ranging from three to 10 per cent, it said.

The report noted affordability, especially in Edmonton and other western cities, is eroding. "Affordability is one of the more serious issues facing today's real estate consumer," said Elton Ash, Re/Max regional executive vice-president for western Canada.

Buyers, however, are responding by considering alternatives to single-detached, he said. The introduction of longer-term mortgages -- up to 35 years -- is also helping buyers cover the higher costs. And Re/Max forecast that there will be a decrease -- or no increase -- in sales next year.

While the outlook said the Canadian housing market will not deteriorate as the U.S. housing market has, Statistics Canada reported Wednesday that the housing sector has gone from being one of strongest leading economic indicators last spring to one of the weakest now.

Yes, 3-5% is very possible. 但是,把 downpay的钱存在银行，利息每年是4%,没有任何风险。比如，现在你要买房子的首付10万加元存在银行，每个月利息333刀到帐。

什么银行的利息是4%，利息就不用缴税了了？就算是4%，缴完税也就剩下3%。你说哪个合算？

难道你的房子卖掉不缴税？再说，银行一份风险也没有。我感觉房子每年涨幅小于6%就已经不划算，因为mortgage利息也很高。
