Buying a house here is really different, people rarely pay asking price unless it's an amazing deal. Asking price is normally top end of market value for a property unless it's a really motivated seller. There's no hidden auction system like there. Auctions are straight up on the day, show up and bid. Some people do sell their home on offer. But then they don't even put a price, just say "open to offers".

Offers also expire pretty quickly here, generally in week or so. Stops offer shopping and hidden auctions and bid wars.

Dunno which way is better, but I learned something today.



My understanding is that it was common here not all that long ago for houses to go around asking price and sometimes less. I believe agents used to be able to access a database of what every house sold for, but no longer.

For most houses they specified a date that bids would be reviewed, and we saw one on an estate sale that was "72 hour irrevocable". Otherwise the buyer's bid is non-binding I think, there is some window where they can back out.



Yeah there's publicly available information here for the price every house sold for ever, it's part of municipal taxation records so it's public domain information.

When you bid on a house here you always make the finalization subject to terms like pest and engineering inspections and that sort of thing. You can even make financial approval a term of the finalization. So an accepted bid does not necessarily mean a house is "sold", but is called "under offer". Once all the i's have been dotted and the t's crossed then it gets signed as sold if the buyers terms are satisfied. Dunno if it's the same up there.

The property market this side has been going nuts for 20 years, just hit a brick wall.

Well guys.  I sold for 555k.

There was a bidding war going on and some corporate real estate agent went all in to get my house as an asset for his corporation.

The real estate bubble never really popped in Canada, there were economic effects of the 2008 crash here but we never had the mass defaults that happened in the US around that time.

Thats cuz Canada is a bit different. I'd love for Canada to get smacked rn lol. Theyre talking alot shit up there without actually dealing with all their own problems. Its like they're all too drunk on can to put a serious country together up there. Plus like how are they gonna deal with racism and actually being good people when the modern world really finally hits up there. America sets the example. I worry alot about how Canada and Europe can actually walk the walk where as I'm quite confident America will grow to become a better place to live for all. Not sure these other countries especially Europe will ever reconciled LOL

Canadian banks are very conservative.  They don't invest in trendy hip markets.  They like to crunch numbers until they are satisfied.

The only people who bid that much higher on a house are Asians with privileged families. in Pasadena, the Chinese are buying up all the real estate and they all will outbid each other by like hundreds of thousands of dollars no questions asked like it's nothing.

Just went to a 15yr mortgage, and am very confident a Denver county zip will not go down in price, ever.

Why???

Take a 25 year mortgage and have more money in your pocket per month.

Always use someone else's money for as long as you can.

Because we can, and the interest we save will make the higher payment worth it. Make over a quarter mill a year so it's OK. I'm very humble and almost embarrassed at how good it's been for us this year in light of all the shit hanging around. Promotions, bonuses, and a new job for me even better than the past one.

Denver is a fantastic market. Colorado does right buy there people. Colorado is a microcosm of the American west. Things are moving forward in America. We're just lacing it up when ppl outside looking in think we're coming apart at the seems. God bless us everyone.

I say Texas is a solid real estate market as well. Real estate really is the best investment ever. Even just land only. I predict weatherford will be the next fort worth and the 2 will merge like dfw (dalworthington).
