Shadow Flipping, Assignments, Realtors taking advantage of clients – You’ve heard the news headlines over the past week or so. Here’s a few facts to clarify and some tips to help protect you:<\/p>\n

1. You always have the choice of whether or not to agree to a sale. If you don’t like the number, don’t sell.<\/p>\n

2. You can and should ALWAYS have your own representation in every transaction. If someone knocks on your door and has a client who wants to buy your home, have a qualified real …<\/span>estate advisor determine a fair value for your home and represent you in the transaction.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

3. The signicant price appreciation in Vancouver real estate prices that is largely impacting this story is being “swept under the rug.” Vancouver home prices – The average selling price of detached home in January 2016 in Metro Vancouver (excluding Surrey) was just under $1.83 million, a gain of 40% over same month in 2015 – Make no mistake, this contributed.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Those that took the assignment contracts or speculated short-term took on significant risk. If the market had declined 40% year-over-year, I don’t think the media is spinning this story in the same way. <\/span><\/p>\n
