North Vancouver Homes And Real Estate

Unless you’ve been asleep for the past couple of seasons, I’m sure you’ve noticed the real estate boom happening on the North Shore right now.  It seems that pretty much any street your drive up or down on has a for sale sign in the ground and there’s a good chance that if there’s not a sold sticker on it yet, it’s soon to have one.  There’s some real demand out there right now and at least in the foreseeable it sure doesn’t seem to be slowing down any.  It’s so beautiful here, should we be surprised that everyone else seems to be catching on to all the beauty this area has to offer?  North Vancouver Real Estate and specifically North Vancouver Homes just continue to be one of the most sought after places to reside in all of Vancouver.  It truly appeals to the masses as an outdoor enthusiast paradise with your proximity to endless parks, hiking trails, biking trails, Capilano Suspension Bridge, minutes from the local ski hills, while also being such a community and family oriented place with a host of excellent schools to choose from.  North Vancouver Homes are doing a great job in checking off the criteria list for many families looking for that perfect combination of schools, community, picturesque scenery and great neighbourhoods.  With the latest monthly totals from the Real Estate Board Of Greater Vancouver for Detached North Vancouver houses for February and March, the trend looks as strong as ever.  February showed an inventory of 248 detached homes in North Van listed for sale, with a 49% sales ratio.  March showed 262 North Vancouver homes listed for sale, with 189 sales(72.14%).  I’ve called North Vancouver home for over 35+ years and the real estate market and the desire to live here does not surprise me.  Couples see it as an ideal place to raise a family, surrounded by outdoor activities, walking distance to amenities, and just steps from a handful of schools to choose from.  You’re far enough away from the congestion of downtown, but only 20-25 minutes from being in the heart of it when needed.  The listing and sales stats for North Vancouver houses in April will be released in roughly 1 week and I suspect the trend has not altered very much.  As your North Vancouver Real Estate expert and real estate agent, let me share my first hand knowledge of this wonderful community and all it has to offer.  Signup to receive email notifications each time a new North Van listing comes on the market that meets your search criteria.  It’s really simple, just email me with your criteria(price range, beds, baths, suite, etc.,) and I’ll set you up to receive alerts each time a new listing comes on the market that matches it.  If at anytime you would like to see one of the properties you are notified with, just call or email me with the time and we’ll set it up(it’s a great way to keep your eye on the market and home prices).  Selling Your North Van home?  Expose your listing with an award winning real estate agent that specializes in the North Vancouver property market.  You gain access to the top selling brokerage on the North Shore(RE/MAX) and our network of highly visited websites.  Not all home buyers in North Vancouver come domestically, that’s why with RE/MAX will your listing gain access to 111 Countries in 42 languages to ensure we extend our reach to more potential buyers.  Let Jim Pilkington of RE/MAX Crest Realty give your property the exposure it needs, while sharing his home grown passion for this great area and real estate.
