There has been a number of properties that have now sold in the Lorne Park area. Watercolors still remains the most popular because of the location and the newness of the homes. Mattamy remains one of the top builders, thus providing comfort to owners of these homes.

Elegant homes in Mississauga are in demand as buyers are looking to "move-up" and first time buyers are looking to buy as interest rates remain record low.

Keep coming back to this link as I update it on a by-weekly basis. Get the report and look at the listings at your leisure. If you have any questions, contact me and I will give you my "personal touch in Lorne Park". I service all of Mississauga.

Now that we have put away our shorts and tee shirts, pulled out our sweaters (and some mornings mittens), we can all settle into the routines that we put aside during the summer months.

Most people were anticipating the inventory numbers to start increasing over September as potential sellers get back from summer vacation and decide to list. It hasn't happened, yet. With listings down 42%, buyers are competing for less product, which leads to "bidding wars".

Homes that are priced well are not lasting on the FOR SALE list. Especially in Lorne Park and Mississauga Homes for sale. If you don't jump quickly, you lose because there are more and more multiple offer situations. Buyers are starved for product.

Much of the activity has to do with low interest rates. Consumer confidence is up. That's all you need in a recovering economy.

After months of protesting the location of a 900-megawatt natural gas plant, members of the Oakville community found out on September 30th that the Oakville site has been approved for construction. The Oakville site, located at the corner of Ford Dr. and the QEW, was one of four other sites being considered for the location. The other three sites, which were to be in the Clarkson area in Mississauga, were turned down after the combined efforts of protesting residents, politicians and health officials.

So, Oakville residents do not want a power plant built in their neighbourhood? As William Mellor, from Durham, had stated in a letter written to the editor of the Toronto Star; "If Oakville doesn't want a power generating plant and the jobs it will provide, reduce the power consumption to the point where the plant becomes unnecessary."

Construction of the plant is to start in mid-2010, and will create 600 new construction jobs and 25 permanent jobs over a period of two years. Power officials claim that the plant will only run at about 40 percent of the time, and has a basic goal of providing electricity when demand is high. This plant has been approved just as the Ontario government has begun shutting down all coal-fired plants in the province.

Mississauga residents in the Clarkson community can now relax that the power plant is not being built in their backyard and that property prices will not be affected. Now would be the perfect time for all Oakville residents who are against the building of the power plant to look at properties Mississauga. We will welcome all of you with open arms. If you have an opinion about the plant, just make a comment to this blog.

Great Headline in the Star this morning, "MARKET ON ROBUST REBOUND - Housing sales keep climbing, fuelled by low interest rates, and solid consumer confidence".

The last couple of notices/blogs that I have sent out have been very positive. During my open houses, buyers still are asking about the recovery from this mess that we were in. It wasn't even a mess but the media was exploiting in the U.S.A. With a little bit of the regular summer slow-down now upon us, homes are selling quite quickly if they are priced correctly. We are still seeing homes flying off the shelves and multiple offers keeping our inventory low with buyers jumping at anything new that comes on the market. Part of this seems to be that the buyers may be fearing that interest rates are going to go up next year and therefore are buying now rather than waiting for next year.

Those who chose to consider my advice have been the lucky few. Those of you who have chosen to wait until "the prices of homes come down some more" , I'm afraid you are in for a rude awakening in the next few months. Those homes that are priced well, are in good neighbourhoods in the communities of Mississauga, and are in decent condition are not staying on the market for very long. Choices are few. Buyers are not having the chance to see something a second time. "If you like it, you better be prepared to work on an offer with your agent."

We are firmly in a sellers market. Inventory remains very low. Take a look at the newest Market Watch.

I apologize to all my buyers, but I have nothing new to show you at this time. Watch my Betty's Pic of the Week for the Lorne Park area (updated regularly). I can provide you with access to hot listings (those that come on the market and you get an email immediately).

Do you know of family or friends that are thinking of making a real estate move? Pass along my contact information. Write my contact information in your telephone book under 'R' for 'REAL ESTATE'.

You can contact me at your leisure at betty@bettybart.com or directly at 416 427 1875. I look forward to hearing from all who are interested.
