What Is a Home Appraisal?
Whether you’re applying for a mortgage to buy a home, refinancing your existing mortgage, or selling your home to anyone other than an all-cash buyer, a home appraisal is a key component of the transaction.

If you’re a buyer, owner, or seller, you’ll want to understand how the appraisal process works and how an appraiser determines a home’s value.

An appraisal for an average home usually costs $300 to $450, which is usually paid by the buyer.

What Is a Home Appraisal?
An appraisal is an unbiased professional opinion of a home's value. Appraisals are almost always used in home transactions and are common in refinance transactions.

If it is a purchase-and-sale transaction, the appraisal is used to determine whether the home's contract price is appropriate given the home's condition, location, and features. In a refinance transaction, the appraisal assures the lender that it isn't loaning the borrower more money than the home is worth.

First-Time Home Buyer Tips
Buying your first home is a major life change. This type of purchase lets you set down roots but can have a profound effect on your finances. These first-time home buyer tips will help you through the home-buying process and maximize the chances you'll get the right house

1. Start saving early for your down payment
Taking time to save up can help you prepare for some of the costs associated with buying a home, including the down payment.

2. Maximize your credit score
Good credit can help you qualify for a mortgage loan at a competitive rate.

3. Decide on your home-buying budget
Your mortgage lender will most likely approve you for the maximum loan amount they feel you can repay.

4. Find the right real estate agent
Most home buyers work with a real estate agent, especially first-time buyers. As your advocate throughout the home-buying process, they will help you in so many ways, including finding properties and negotiating a fair price.

5. Research properties carefully
Before you start looking for homes, make sure you know what's important to you. Research daily commutes.

6. Be prepared for closing costs
There are transaction fees involved in buying a home. You'll usually pay them at closing, when you transfer money to the seller and the seller transfers ownership of property.

Follow these tips and you'll give yourself a solid start to home ownership.

Bank of Canada expected to leave rates untouched Wednesday — but could signal more rate hikes to come

The Bank of Canada is expected to once again hold the line on interest rates Wednesday, but could tip its hand on whether it will restart its rate-raising campaign later in the year, economists and bank watchers say.

Most forecasters expect the Bank to leave its key lending rate at 4.5 per cent Wednesday morning. Investors seem to agree, with trading on the overnight swaps market indicating less than a 10 per cent chance of a change. But CIBC chief economist Avery Shenfeld says the bank may add cautionary language to its announcement that it could restart its inflation-fighting rate hikes again. The reason? Strong jobs growth, and a robust economy.

Buyers spring back: Sidelined Canadians plan return to market

Climbing interest rates have given many Canadian homebuyers reason to pause their purchase plans over the last year. Nearly one quarter of Canadians (24%) were in the market for a new home this past year, and 63% of them say they postponed their plans due to rising rates, according to a recent Royal LePage survey, conducted by Maru/Blue.1 Now, with the Bank of Canada placing a hold on the overnight lending rate for the first time since March of 2022, many homebuyers intend to resume their purchasing plans once again. Of those who say they postponed their plans, 62% now intend to return to the market.

The survey found that more than a quarter (26%) of Canadians who put their home purchase plans on hold over the last year due to rising interest rates will resume their search this spring, following the Bank of Canada’s announcement last week to hold the overnight lending rate at 4.5%. Meanwhile, more than one third (36%) say they plan to move forward with their buying intentions, but will wait for the central bank to maintain the current rate for several consecutive months. Some 25% of those who postponed their home buying goals stated that they do not intend to resume their plans in the near future.

“In recent weeks, well-priced properties in some popular neighbourhoods with low inventory have already seen multiple offers,” added Soper. “We anticipate that signs of stable economic conditions will lead to a more normalized spring market.”
