Feels like just last month that we were welcoming in 2011 with open arms, albeit with guarded optimism. We were excited for what was to come, setting goals and chasing dreams, yet we were guarded realizing that Canada could be pulled into the economic turmoil that had the rest of the world scrambling for survival. Canada continued to defy logic and lead the world in economic stability. Fueled by low interest rates and protected by our strict lending criteria, Canada's hot housing market continued to boost our economy and keep Canada well ahead of the others globally.
On a local level, the Greater Toronto Area showed healthy increases across the board in property values and unit sales. Consumer confidence continued to grow throughout the year and the strong housing market continued to generate tens of thousands of dollars in spin off revenues to keep our economy vibrant. On a personal level, 2011 set records for most sales, highest dollar volume and most referrals generated in a calendar year. So much happened in 2011 as we reflect back on the year that was. It's hard to imagine that a year that seemed to fly by was packed with so many exciting and humbling events. Your continued support allowed me the privilege of receiving a few coveted awards during 2011. I had the honour of receiving the RE/MAX Hall of Fame Award in February, REBAC's Accredited Buyer Representative designation in March and the coveted Chairman's Award from RE/MAX International in December. Thank you so much for your trust and support. Without you, these achievements would not be possible. In 2012, there will be 4 main opportunities to be taken advantage of:
1. First time home buyers.
2. Investment/Income property purchasers.
3. 2nd home or vacation property purchasers.
4. Buyers/Sellers looking to upsize/downsize.
If you or anyone you know falls into these categories, please get a hold of me so I can help. Because of where prices are and where they may go this year along with ridiculously low mortgage interest rates, this could be one of the best times in a very long time to make these moves. I've also added Foreign Investment opportunities to our offering, allowing you to take advantage of the strong Canadian dollar and depreciated assets in the USA and other countries. I'm very excited about this and would love to explain in more detail when we chat.
2011 was an incredible year, and thus it really is hard to say goodbye! However, say goodbye we must. Thank you for the memories 2011. We now welcome the dreams of 2012 with open hearts, minds and arms, dreams that will help us create more memories that we will cherish forever. Cheers to 2012!!! Asif
