Despite their conviction about the housing sales forecast for 2011, it’s unlikely the rise interest rates will spur sales in the first half. Instead, home buyers will be wanting to beat the deadline for the new mortgage lending rules. Those rules include a new maximum amortization of mortgages to 30 years from 35 years. And buyers will only be able refinance up to 85 per cent of the value of their homes on government-back mortgages, down from 90 per cent. The new measures will hurt first time home buyers, however the finance minister didn’t specify that first time home buyers have been defaulting on their home loans. The new policy is set to dry up mortgage credit and reduce demand for homes and condos.

The introduction of the HST (which BC citizens are demanding a moratorium on, and so should we) and stricter mortgage qualification rules ruined a healthy and thriving home development market. As we now know, inflation was never a threat and unemployment hasn’t grown significantly, yet our economy is sliding a little because it’s being neglected. 

There wasn’t a threat to Harper’s conservative government before but with our economy flagging and the Feds and Ontario Liberals doing nothing to revive it, it stands to reason that voters will be increasingly upset. The Federal conservatives are comfortable right now, but the winter will bring discontent, especially in Ontario.

And none of it is needed. Canada has an outstanding future. Our natural resources are creating unbelievable wealth, but they also increase the $CAD way above what it is really worth. That hurts Ontario’s economy badly. And with no pressure being put on the Chinese to let the Yuan float naturally to its real level, Ontario’s manufacturing sector will continue hurting. How can we compete with China when they can lower their currency continually to beat us every time? How long does this have to go on before we speak up and do something to change it?   

The US has been unbelievably tolerant toward China and its currency manipulation. The effects on US manufacturing activity is deadening yet the Obama administration continues to let it happen. There’s no way the US or Ontario can allow our manufacturing to continue on this slow death course. Something has to be done. If we act, we can revive our economy. McGuinty’s only solution was to add an HST tax. How is that going to stimulate Ontario’s manufactuing sector and make us a leader in International business?

Ontario has a huge and very important role in Canada’s overall economic potential yet these international plays ruin our GDP.  Every Canadian whether born here or another country wants to own their own home.  We’re not going to fall into the subprime nightmare the US did, so why stifle the home building industry.  Developers like Mattamy Homes and Tridel Corporation are building amazing new buildings, townhomes and homes in Mississauga and Milton. They were willing to invest hundreds of millions of dollars into the Mississauga economy only to see the Federal and Ontario governments do all they can to stifle home ownership.

It’s a good thing homes aren’t made in China or we’d have big trouble. China’s auto production is now above the US, Europe and Japan, so their currency manipulation is unfair and bad for the world economy.  Having everything made in china is just not good for Canada or the US. If the US economy fails, we’re in for a bad ride. We’ve already tied our ship to theirs so we could sink too. It’s time people got noisy about how our economy is being managed. Canada can show leadership in dealing with the Chinese and that should be inspiring for the Americans too.

Getting tough with currency manipulators can help revive our economy and open the door for a very bright future for Ontario. To let things continue as they are is unacceptable. Our aging population demands that we be assertive in protecting our economic interests.

90 Lee Avenue in Markham is a Fully Framed Home That Needs All Finishings And Landscaping. Perfect Opportunity For A Builder Or Someone Who Wants To Finish Thier Dream Home With All Of Your Own Desired Finishes. Located In Markham Among Upscale Homes With Mature Trees. Property Being Sold ‘As Is’.

Risk-averse house house flippers will be looking for homes that have a good price potential and won’t have too much to fix. Sometimes people building their own homes and on occasion, custom builders run out of money and can’t finish the home and property they’re working on. Just like a home in foreclosure, this is an opportunity for those who have the capability of finishing the property and then selling it for a nice profit.

If you’re going to flip that house today, you’ll want to ensure you don’t have too much demolition work to do and the existing structure doesn’t lead you into an exasperating series of problems. Old houses can do that. Worn out old furnaces and ductwork, stairways, roofs, windows, and cracked foundations can mean nightmares for your renovation guy. Will it be up to code for energy efficiency? And how about the insulation in the attic?

Good sound judgement in assessing resale properties is needed to flip houses successfully. A lot of people like the potential of making a 100k profit on a flip, but dangers lurk for the unaware.

Here’s a few tips if you are thinking of flipping a house:

1. Find a home that is a diamond in the rough, one is basically sound structurally and where enhancements/improvements will be easy to fix and upgrade
2. Make sure the neighbourhood is good as buyers will be sensitive to the area of the home
Find out how far the nearest elementary school is
3. Check the foundation and roof thoroughly
4. Check the floor and attic for mold and mildew
5. Check for use of toxic insulation used in the attic and walls
6. Check the layout and walls to ensure the kitchen and main bathroom can be enlarged and that an extra bathroom might be possible, as this is very important to buyers with families
7. Hire a home inspector to check the house thoroughly and do the check with him
8. Check with your realtor about how many homes have been sold in the neighbourhood recently and how many are up for sale now.
9. Check previous repairs and whether you’ll need to redo them
10. Check the condition of plumbing, furnaces, and water heater and central if it exists.

Having a real estate agent who knows the area to advise on your house to flip is a good asset.  If you can find a fairly new house to flip, or an unfinished house, it is more likely to sell in today’s market. An unfinished one means you can tailor the finishes to suit your goal of selling quickly and attracting the maximum number of buyers. Good luck in finding a home to flip. Let’s hope it’s not one of those disasters you see on HGTV shows like Flip that House. You could lose more than your shirt on a bad choice let alone a money pit.
