Good blog, just discovered it. I especially like the chart where you show the Edmonton realtor forecasts for 2007 and then actuals. I suggest you send this to the Edmonton papers every time they quotes the realtor association garbage.
when realtots supply the information to the chmc via there protected market stats
it would be easy to say that there "guesses" have an agenda

some good videos on housing
tinyurl.com/yfw62g..u.k. house price bust..but simmilar to edm/cgy
tinyurl.com/2fphpx..price roller-coaster
your blog tackles a more serious under side to the goings on in re
and that will be respected

squid,
Good video. It had articles from 2005 and the UK market, especially London, continued to increase until very recently. So some of the bubble followers had egg on their faces for awhile ;-) However, the UK is FINALLY starting the decline and perhaps the video will be seen the same as calling a tech bubble a year early.

Great site Bearclaw. I especially like the EREB and CMHC forecasts and what actually happened. Keep up the good work.
Compared to Dec 2006, condo average price is up 11%, median is up 14%. CREB predicted an increase of 9% for 2007
Not bad, eh?
It seems creb is more on the ball than ereb. And what's up with ereb's webpage? it looks like a joke...
Look at Fort Mac house prices, a one horse town work camp that has 2months of summer. The big pay cheques being made up there are being spent up there just to make ends meet.
To funny!
frankbot,
Actually that is not too bad for the CREB. Its too bad that the EREB gave up on their original forecast of 15% for this one.
