The year ahead: Navigating Montreal’s real estate market in 2018

Regard sur l’année à venir : Naviguer dans le marché immobilier de Montréal en 2018

Le marché montréalais a connu un virage important en 2017, surtout dans la région de l’Ouest-de-l’Île. En raison de la faible disponibilité de maisons à vendre en conjonction avec des taux d’intérêt avantageux et des facteurs économiques positifs, le marché a connu un niveau de dynamisme que nous n’avons pas vu depuis plus d’une décennie. Les ventes de maisons unifamiliales à Montréal ont augmenté de 15 % et les prix moyens ont connu une hausse de 6 %. Plusieurs municipalités de l’Ouest-de-l’Île ont vu des hausses de prix à deux chiffres pour la première fois dans l’histoire récente.

Les communautés de l’Ouest-de-l’Île sont plus prisées que jamais

Les vendeurs reçoivent une offre par-dessus l’autre et les maisons se vendent régulièrement plus cher le prix demandé. En fait, à l’échelle du Québec, ce sont Pointe-Claire et Beaconsfield qui ont enregistré le pourcentage le plus élevé de ventes au-delà du prix demandé.

Regard sur 2018

L’on s’attend à ce que Montréal demeure une force de la nature du paysage immobilier du Canada en 2018. Une croissance de 1,9 % de l’économie de la ville est prévue pour cette année?; cette perspective favorable en conjonction avec un nombre de facteurs, dont la faible disponibilité de maisons à vendre, continuera d’alimenter cette croissance spectaculaire pendant au moins les six premiers mois de l’année.

Suivi des facteurs externes

La ville suscite l’optimisme des investisseurs immobiliers qui considèrent ce marché comme étant prometteur et abordable comparativement aux autres grandes villes du Canada, ce qui fait en sorte qu’elle soit d’autant plus attrayante pour les acheteurs étrangers cherchant à éviter la taxe de 15 % que leur impose l’Ontario. Les Canadiens des autres provinces s’intéressent également au marché montréalais par suite à la hausse des prix des maisons à Vancouver et Toronto.

Comprendre les nouveaux taux et la nouvelle réglementation

Ayant déjà enregistré une augmentation du taux directeur en 2018, il reste à voir quel sera l’impact de cette augmentation sur le marché montréalais en conjonction notamment avec la nouvelle réglementation du Bureau du surintendant des institutions financières Canada (BSIF) en matière de «?simulation de crise?».

Dorénavant, les demandeurs de prêt hypothécaire devront être en mesure de payer le plus élevé du taux de référence publié par la Banque du Canada ou du taux de prêt hypothécaire contractuel majoré de 2 %, ce qui réduit la capacité d’emprunt de 18,5 % au minimum. Il reste à voir quelle sera l’incidence de ces modifications, quoique certains analystes prévoient une réduction des prix de l’immobilier, tandis que d’autres croient que les nouveaux acheteurs devront revoir leur budget à la baisse ou même carrément remettre leur achat d’une maison à plus tard. L’on s’attend toutefois à ce que les marchés de premier ordre, comme l’Ouest-de-l’Île, que nous desservons soient les moins touchés par ces changements.

Collaboration avec les experts locaux pour optimiser votre expérience

Compte tenu de la complexité des conditions du marché et de la nouvelle réglementation, il n’a jamais été plus important de pouvoir compter sur des sources locales d’informations sur le marché et un courtier chevronné.

Si vous envisagez la possibilité de vendre votre maison, il est essentiel d’avoir un courtier parfaitement au diapason du marché local. Ayant des décennies d’expérience du secteur, les courtiers de Deakin sont particulièrement bien placés pour connaître les communautés que nous servons — ils se tiennent courant des inscriptions actives, y compris les offres en cours, et des acteurs particuliers sur le marché qui pourraient avoir une incidence sur les résultats.

Cherchez-vous à acheter une propriété?? Vous entrez dans un territoire concurrentiel, mais vous pouvez compter sur nos courtiers pour vous aider à le naviguer. Ils se tiennent prêts à vous conseiller et vous aider à trouver la maison idéale pour vous et votre famille. Dans le contexte actuel du marché, cela signifie souvent qu’ils vous aident à savoir s’il est temps de «?foncer?» ou s’il est préférable de prendre un pas de recul et laisser l’exubérance du marché suivre son cours. Notre objectif premier est toujours de créer une valeur durable pour nos clients.
