As a born and mostly raised in Regina gal (I lived in northern Saskatchewan from 4-11 yrs), I have really come to appreciate everything there is about Regina Saskatchewan. We have relatively low crime, short work commutes, an excellent university and affordable real estate. It wasn't until I was in my 20’s and became a real estate agent that I really came to appreciate this city. But if there’s anything growing up outside of the city taught me, it’s that ‘home’ is where the heart is. Let me tell you about my favorite things about houses for sale in Regina Saskatchewan.
1. Affordability
I already said it, but I'll say it again. Regina has been declared one of the most affordable cities in Canada for years, consistently ranking near the bottom of all of the “most expensive” places to buy real estate. I appreciate this, because getting started in real estate a majority of my clients were first time home buyers getting into their first homes and I love seeing them be able to afford to buy a home and then to renovate, maintain it and build equity in their own early 20’s.
2. Quality homes for a decent price
The average price of houses for sale in Regina Saskatchewan right now is hovering about that $330,000 range and when you get to looking at these average priced properties, they are pretty great. Depending on the area it could be a newer townhome or apartment, or a single family home in a mature & developed area that could use some updating but is already pretty move in ready.
3. Great Locations
Regina is a funny city in that people who have lived on one end of the city for the majority of their lives typically don't like to leave that particular end of the city. So even though it only takes 20 minutes to get from the West to East end, East enders generally won't move outside of their beloved East end neighborhoods! I personally think it's charming that even though our city is so highly accessible people like to stay where they grew up. On the other hand, people who have never lived in Regina often say that all they want is an easy commute to work, which is 100% doable anywhere in the city!
I appreciate this city and houses for sale in Regina Saskatchewan because they offer a quality of life that someone might not find in other cities of Canada. We are nice people, with affordable homes and happier people because we have little rush hour traffic!
