非常高兴最后终于成功帮助买家购买到卡尔加里的第二套房子。买家就是从众多经纪人当中选择了我这个陌生人，给予了我全部的信任。整个购买流程中有很多的答疑解惑，从最初在预算内选择哪些社区开始，到如何对比户型。买家妻子是为很细腻的女人，总能不断地挑战我的专业水平 ：）。在和这对夫妻大交道时，应该说我给予了更多的耐心。毕竟市场不是很好，买家会有很多疑虑。
在社区最后确定下来以后，其它的就水到渠成了。中间的小插曲是房检，因为对方雇佣的前老外同事，同时也做房检。我刚开始一听就心里打鼓，这人行吗？不是全职房检？anyway，用过之后，告诉买家人后不要再用了，毕竟个人感觉水平一般。
最后给砍掉$18,400的价格，还得非常感激买家最后给予得推荐信。

For transactions where the seller is a non-resident, our branch's law firm has recently reminded us that the seller must obtain a Clearance Certificate from the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). If the seller fails to do so, the buyer may be held responsible for any unpaid taxes and penalties owed by the seller.
This tax is generally 25% of the income portion, though specific cases may vary. The application for this certificate must be submitted within 10 days of the transaction closing.
In summary, non-resident sellers should consult with their accountant before listing their property on the market to ensure compliance and avoid potential tax liabilities.

The Calgary real estate market in early 2017 reflected a period of transition, influenced by economic conditions, changing buyer behavior, and evolving market trends. While signs of stabilization emerged after a prolonged downturn, challenges remained in certain property segments due to external economic factors.
Calgary’s housing market began the year with mixed results. Sales activity showed moderate improvement compared to the previous year, with a slight increase in buyer interest. However, inventory levels remained high, particularly in the detached and apartment condominium sectors, contributing to continued price adjustments.
Despite these challenges, market fundamentals signaled potential recovery, especially as employment conditions improved and consumer confidence gradually returned. However, affordability and lending policy changes continued to shape buyer decisions.
Sales Volume: While home sales remained below long-term averages, there was a year-over-year increase, suggesting a more balanced market than in 2016.
Inventory Levels: A surplus of available homes put downward pressure on prices, particularly in the apartment segment, where oversupply was most pronounced.
Price Trends: Benchmark prices remained relatively stable but showed a slight decline in certain segments due to high inventory and cautious consumer spending.
Detached Homes: The detached market saw signs of stabilization, with steady demand in mid-priced homes. However, high-end properties continued to experience slower turnover due to affordability concerns and shifting buyer preferences.
Apartment Condominiums: This sector faced the greatest challenges, with oversupply leading to prolonged market times and price declines. Buyer demand remained soft as affordability constraints and investor hesitation persisted.
Attached Homes: Townhouses and duplexes performed moderately, with balanced supply and demand dynamics. While prices remained stable, this segment benefited from buyers looking for affordable alternatives to detached homes.
The market was shaped by broader economic conditions, including:
Oil Prices and Employment: A gradual recovery in Alberta’s energy sector provided optimism, but job growth remained slow, impacting purchasing power.
Mortgage Regulations: New federal mortgage stress tests affected buyer qualification, leading to shifts in market activity, particularly in the entry-level segments.
Interest Rates: While rates remained low, expectations of future increases encouraged some buyers to enter the market sooner rather than later.
Looking ahead, Calgary’s real estate market was expected to continue stabilizing, with gradual improvements in sales activity and demand. Price growth was anticipated to remain modest, with certain segments, particularly detached homes, faring better than others.
However, economic recovery, government policies, and lending conditions would continue to play a crucial role in shaping market performance throughout the year.
While Calgary’s real estate market in January 2017 showed early signs of recovery, challenges remained, particularly in inventory management and buyer affordability. The market was in a transitional phase, with potential for gradual improvement in the coming months. Sellers needed to remain competitive in pricing, while buyers had opportunities to enter the market under favorable conditions.
其实，仔细一看，大部分成交量活跃的都是新区，当然啦，人家开发商有大把的房源放到市场上。小的从普通公寓起，到大户人家的前置三车库豪宅。另外一个方向是infill老城区，像Killarney,Tuxedo, West Hillhurst。而老社区，因为当年占地大，居民户相对少，很难挤进这些前茅名单。
