Saskatoon Real Estate Market: January 2024 Snapshot

In January 2024, Saskatoon's housing market was buzzing, reflected in both the sales volume and average sale price movements.

Inventory

As of February 1, 2024 there were 698 homes listed on the Saskatoon MLS. January experienced a slight downturn in the number of new listings, which totalled 364, marking a 12% decrease both for the month and YTD when compared to the previous year's count of 414 new listings in January. This reduction suggests a tightening market, where demand could potentially outstrip supply. This means, as a seller, you'd find a bit less competition for your listing. There are fewer homes on the market, making it a bit easier for your listing to stand out.

Sales Volume

Sales performance saw a significant increase, with the number of properties sold rising by 22% for the month, as well as year-to-date (YTD), reaching a total of 245 sales. This marked a considerable growth compared to the same period last year, which recorded 201 sales, translating to an increase of 44 units. Such an upward trend underscores a growing buyer interest which is pretty great news for sellers.

Average Price

Also, for sellers, it keeps getting better. The average price for a home sold in January was $385,259, which is a pretty big jump—about 10.8% more than last year. So, homes are not only selling, but they're also selling for more.

Summary

All in all, January was a great month for Saskatoon's real estate market. More homes were sold, there were fewer new listings, and prices were up. It's a good time to be selling a house in Saskatoon!

Renovate to Navigate: Leveraging Home Improvements as a Strategy Against Low Inventories

Hey there! Dreaming of buying or selling a home in Saskatoon? Whether you're looking to step into a new home, sell your current one, or simply enhance where you live, understanding the power of renovation can be your key to success. With the current tight listing inventory, finding or creating the perfect home might require a bit of creativity.

For buyers, the challenge of finding a home that ticks all the boxes right away might seem daunting. However, purchasing a home with solid fundamentals in your desired area and renovating it to suit your tastes and needs can turn it into your dream space. It's a strategy that can unlock potential you might not have seen at first glance.

For sellers, sprucing up your property before listing can make a huge difference. Strategic renovations can not only help your home sell faster but also potentially increase its sale price. It’s about showcasing your home’s best features and making it stand out in the market.

And for those not looking to move, renovating your existing space can rejuvenate your love for your home, adding functionality, style, or even value if you decide to sell down the line.

Looking to Buy and Renovate for Personal Enjoyment or Resale?

If the perfect home seems just out of reach you might want to consider these strategies:

  • Purchase Plus Improvements - For buyers, this option allows you to add renovation costs into your mortgage, making it easier to transform an almost-right house into your ideal home from the start.

  • Government Assistance Programs - Available to both buyers and sellers, these programs offer financial support for renovations that improve energy efficiency, accessibility, and more, potentially increasing your home's appeal and value.

Enhancing Your Current Home

Looking to boost your home's value or enjoy your space more? Here are some financing options to consider:

  • Home Equity Loans and HELOCs - A great way to fund significant renovations, whether you’re aiming to increase your home's market value or just upgrade your living conditions.

  • Mortgage Refinancing - Refinancing can provide the funds for extensive renovations by tapping into your home’s increased value, allowing for a wide range of improvement projects.

Expert Guidance for Your Real Estate Journey

Choosing a realtor with construction knowledge and experience can be a game-changer. Jamie and Ross at Tait Real Estate are not just experts in the Saskatoon real estate market; they also bring a wealth of construction know-how to the table. This expertise is invaluable, offering personalized suggestions for potential modifications and renovations to make any house feel uniquely yours.

Having an agent with a background in construction means you’ll get insights into what aspects of a home you can (and cannot) renovate, along with advice on the renovations that will bring you the most value, whether you're planning to sell in the future or want to enjoy your home for years to come. They can help you see beyond a property's current state, envisioning the transformation that can turn a potential home into your dream space. This perspective is especially crucial in a market where finding a ready-to-move-in home that meets all your criteria can be challenging. With their guidance, you can make informed decisions, ensuring your investment is not just safe but also potentially more rewarding.

Whether you’re eyeing renovations to sell for a higher price, buying a new place to make your own, or just wanting to love your home a little more, we recommend contacting Deb Murdoch to help with all your financing needs.
