2009年5月份之前，千万不要买房。

[闲得慌]

我倒， 你专门找个又旧的区，又旧的房子（64年的).
你自己找找2000年左右修的独立房，西岛比较好的区，2000尺以上的，现在要多少钱。
不要说西岛。现在brossard 新区的独立屋都至少45万以上。

60年代的房子最结实了！
在渥太华，100老的房子一点也不便宜啊！

The worst season in US is the first half of 2009, then it will start strongly recovering with the leadership of the Democratics in the second half of 2009. The booming will show up in 2010 and 11.

For Canada with the leadership of the Conservatives... traditionally, there is a 6 months lag between US recovery and Canadian recovery. However, since the Conservatives and Harper never ever "anticipated" this crisis and didn't do the right things, the worst time for Canada will be the whole 2009 plus the first half of 2010.

I said this because in the past two years, the Conservatives successfully destroied manufacotries in the East. At the same time, the western oil industries these guys relying on are collapsing. So Canada actually has no soundable business except struggling RIM, bankrupting Nortel. More people are losing their jobs. the market is just starting to panic because the leaders have been misinforming and stupidly optismistic about the economy.

Months ago, our PM even answered it is a good timing to buy stocks when he was asked his comments on the US economic crisis.

What you said could be true.
但是，我对渥太华的房价还有点信心，仅此而已！

according to the city of Ottawa projection, the number of new immigration coming to this city in the five years since 2006 will be much less than the the five years before 2006. less new jobs available, less new comers, less demand for house.

如果涨的话，有没有货都不会慌啊。
就像前几年一样，顶多贵个2-3万，形势好，继续涨的话，谁担心这多的2-3万呢。

怕就怕形势逆转，逼得要去其他地方讨生活时，或砸手里或跌成白菜价了。。

Hmm... Seems many other are not as confident as you.

New home sales lowest in decade.

OTTAWA -- New house sales plunged 65.9 per cent in November to just 156 units as buyers fled the market while they wait for the global economic crisis to ease.
The Ottawa Home Builders Association said that it was the worst month for sales in any month over the last decade.
Sales of single-family units fell the hardest, down 72 per cent to just 58 units. Low-rise units which includes semi-detached and townhouses fell 60 per cent to 98 sales.
Only 13 condominium apartments were sold during the month.

金融危机中信心如何，因个人情况不同而不同。汽车厂的雇员失业的可能性比较高，信心就可能低一些。政府、税务局的职员端着铁饭碗，旱涝保收，有什么可担心的？马照跑，舞照跳。有些人还巴不得金融危机更严重些，别人都纷纷破产，自己好趁机捞一把呢。

我说的是房价，不要文不对题。

房价到底降了还是升了？

“贵个2-3万”相当于10%，我觉得挺多的。相比5年前，房价加倍了。可怜那些等了5年的。继续等，“否则5年白等了”。我支持！

如果条件允许，买房自住有什么好亏的?我有个同事不舍得花钱买房子，把省下来的钱都投到股票和基金里了，还不是亏得一塌糊涂，还不如早买大房子早享受大房子带来的舒适呢!

 

[forward]

this is exact case of 条件不允许.

滞后效应，
你将在未来的一年内看到房价降。
