The gap widens the gap over time.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you were considering waiting on your purchase, the question becomes: <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Will my income increase over time? <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If so, the rising property prices over time will not be an issue for you. If that&#8217;s not descriptive of your situation, it would be best to buy sooner rather than later.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Note that if you are thinking of waiting for the market to calm down, the same principle also applies in reverse. If property prices stabilize, or decrease in the future, the price of your current property will likely be subject to the same trend. Your purchase will be easier, but selling could be more difficult.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Example in numbers:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2019, in the same neighbourhood, a condo was selling for $400,000 and a house for $800,000.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2022, this same condo will sell for 30% more at $520,000, and that house would rise 30% to $1,040,000;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Conclusion: The price gap between a condo and a house has increased by 30%; in 2019 the gap was $400,000, and in 2022 the gap is $520,000.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Note that historically, houses and income properties have increased in value more than condos. If you are thinking of making the transition from one type of property to the other, sooner is better in order to maximize your buying power.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>\u201cMYTH\u201d 2<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&nbsp;I don&#8217;t need a bank pre-approval because I already have a mortgage, and my house has appreciated in value.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>REALITY.<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you want to buy a new property, with a mortgage, you will need to get a new pre-approval. This is required to show sellers that you have the financial ability to purchase their property.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your current mortgage, or the equity in your property is irrelevant.
