"housing starts in 2013 were higher than
2012, which were higher than 2011. We
had another great year," Moore says. "The
market can't go up forever, but even if the
market slows down by 10%, we'd have the
third-best year in 25 years — that's not bad."
Manitoba isn't as vulnerable to the
housing market slowdowns that have affected larger
centres like Vancouver and Toronto, he adds.
"We're not a province of risk takers. Our speculation is
the show homes. We never jump big, we never fall far
— you can plan long-term here," he says. "We're the only
province that didn't officially experience a recession in
2009, and that's partly thanks to our diversified economy."
and in Manitoba, the price is right. While new
housing prices have been rising by about 4% each
year, the average Winnipeg home still costs $30,000
less than it would in regina, and $60,000 less than it
would in Saskatoon. Mortgages are affordable as well,
and Moore doesn't see this changing any time soon.
"interest rates are not projected to go up. it's not even
on the horizon," he says. "it's still a great time to buy
a new home. We have affordable prices, mortgage
rates are remaining solid — there truly is a home for
everyone in the Parade."
