Chilliwack Mobile for sale



I would like to take this opportunity to tell you about my new listing in Baker Trails, #152-46511 Chilliwack Lake Rd. First and foremost Baker Trails is the single most sought after mobile park in Chilliwack. The reason for this is simple. It is the only park where you own your own land. It's what we call a bare land strata. So, what's the difference you may ask? Well all the other parks you have no ownership to the land, you simply own the mobile. You also have to pay huge pad rental fees, upwards of $300-$400 per month. Baker Trails is the park where you own your lot and your mobile and the best part is it's only $85 per month for strata. This particular property that I'm selling is also one of the largest lots in Baker Trails. The average lot size is 3400sqft, which is a typical rectangle shape lot...this lot is over 5300sqft and is located on a quiet cul-de-sac within the park. Prime, prime location!
Now that you are up to date on what a bare land strata is and lot sizes lets talk about the mobile. This is a double wide mobile. As soon as you walk through the front door you feel as though you are in a home not a mobile. There has been very little updating to the decor of the home however it has been meticulously taken care of over the years. Through the front door you are greeted with a very large living room. Two large bay windows showers this room and the adjacent dining room with tons of natural light. Through the formal dining room is the kitchen with tons of cupboard space, counter space and dishwasher. There are two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The master ensuite has both soaker tub and separate shower and finally his and hers sinks. The whole unit also has central air conditioning. Finally back to the lot. As I said it is one of the largest lots in Baker Trails and has been taken care of by a person with a heart of a gardener. Beautiful fruit trees, shrubs and flowers adorn this property and make for a very low maintenance yard.
If you are in the market for a mobile than this home should be the top of your list. Give me a call for your own private tour, 604-795-1616 or visit my website for more pics and video, www.kylehislop.com

Chilliwack Real Estate Stats - August 2010


Here are the stats for August 2010. The real estate market in Chilliwack has had a very slow summer, which again, is pretty common for us. As we look at the numbers we always compare them to the previous year. However, 2009 was a very unusual summer for real estate in BC. Because it came off the heals of the 2008 recession the summer of 2009 was abnormally busy due to pent up demand. So back to the current numbers if we were to look at a graph of this year sales, August was actually a decent month. It seems as though sales bottomed out in July and are more than likely on the rise through November of this year.
I hope this information is helpful, feel free to give me a call at 604-795-1616 or send me an email kylehislop@gmail.com to discuss any real estate questions you may have. I'm never too busy for you.
