In this episode we will give you the condo market stats for the past month, what makes condo mortgages different from house mortgages, and a look at one condo building in the south end of Winnipeg.
  

Winnipeg Real Estate News 

 
Available condo listings are down from last year, while sales are up.  Not at the same rate as houses in Winnipeg, but still an increase in activity against a backdrop of lower inventory levels.
 

Phone call with Mortgage Mike 

If a buyer is pre-approved for a $250K house, can they just go and buy a $250K condo?  Not so fast....condo mortgages have a few unique requirements.  We need to consider the condo fees, whether the condo building is an apartment-conversion and whether the condo is self-managed.

Spotlight on Local Business 

 Whether you're buying or selling, a house or a condo in Winnipeg, you will need a real estate lawyer.  I recommend Brad McClelland of McRoberts Law Office.  Here is a link to his website
 
 

Spotlight on Tower 180 Condo in St Vital 

180 Beliveau Rd is the location for a condo known as Tower 180 Condos.  Originally built as an apartment block in 1970, it was converted into condos by A&S Homes in 2014.
1 and 2-BR suites, priced bet 160-220k.  Generally about 20K to $40K below the price when they were new.
