OTTAWA - Prices for new homes in Canada rose by 5.2 per cent in April from a year earlier, the slowest pace in more than two and a half years as a weakening Alberta market continued to pull down the national average, Statistics Canada said Wednesday.# N7 N- ^; s$ B% }- w. {! A

In contrast to strong markets in Saskatchewan and parts of Atlantic Canada, home prices in oil-rich Alberta showed more signs of cooling. . Y; ^8 C! M$ n9 Q& E1 }

Prices in Calgary edged up 2.5 per cent in April from a year earlier, compared to a 5.3 per cent year-over-year increase in March.

& l( s$ P5 b9 c个人认为,如果你不是石油行业,在Alberta还有套房子,小破single house,不到2000尺,市场价格大概35万,因为你买的早,至少5年前,甚至25年前就买的。房子贷款基本上还清了。0 l# |5 n; M/ c
而你的工作也就3-4万的年薪,反正跟油老大没的比。0 @# a+ H* N% G7 v

  ?5 ~3 i/ C4 ]- v这时候,你看到newfoundland 和NS的房子,30万,3000尺,或者至少2000尺。很好的。那边也能找个差不多工作。9 O+ N0 ^1 c3 d% k  |7 A
--然后就搬家了,卖了alberta的小破房子,到NS住大house了。还剩下手里的5-6万块钱。给你的儿女或者孙儿女上学用,或者你去旅游,美国,加勒比海,欧洲、泰国,马来西亚。。。

谢国忠写过一篇文章关于全球地产经济,解释了为什么很多韩国棒子到中国居住的问题。 我想 从过热的加西搬到家东也是类似情况吧。

06-07年冬天的时候,教堂的一帮老太太就有此想法。所以我这个说法并非臆断。

回复 5楼 的帖子

教堂的老太太的话你也听?她们只能代表退休人士的想法,其实更多的退休人士是到BC等房子更贵的地方。

那些地方涨一个是补涨,另一个原因是和石油有关,不是Alberta才有石油的,东部沿海也有。再一个原因是炒房造成的,炒房是从西向东逐个炒过去的,其它省的房子炒高了,对东部有个刺激作用。安省和魁北克除外,虽然有些上涨,幅度不大,因为两者的盘子大。小盘的已经炒上天去了。
