Vancouver house
prices skyrocket

VANCOUVER (CP) —
Sales of higher-priced
homes pushed up th er:
age selling price of a single
family home in the Van-
couver area 23 per cent in
the past year, says the
Greater Vancouver Real
Estate Board.

The average price on the
multiple listing service
rose to, $178,700 from
$144,900, the board said.

Board figures- show
there were 144 sales of
homes priced above
$500,000 during the first
four months of 1988, main-
ly on Vancouver's west
side — compared with just
44 such sales during the
same period last year.

Although the number of
homes sold in April was
down 10 per cent from

March's record-breaking
level, sales were still up 12
per cent from last April's
leve's,

The value of mést Great-
er Vancouver homes has
risen by eight to 12 per
cent in the past year, said
Jerry Jackman, Royal Le-
Page vice-president, but
west side values have
jumped by as much as 30
per cent.

“Activity has just gone
crazy, and a lot of that is
due to the (strong) econ
omy,” he said. “Everybody
said we'd have (an econ-
omic slowdown) by the end
of 1988 and then they said
it would be delayed until
the middle of 1989. Now
they're pushing it out of
1989 altogether.” \

Choir to sing at UN

The West Kootenay area
will be represented by a
group of 55 members of the
Kootenay Youth Choir at the
Third Special Session on
World Disarmament and De-
velopment at the United Na-

tions. This special conference -

begins May 25 in New York.

The local youth, including
those from Nelson, Slocan
Valley and Grand Forks, are
currently preparing a choral
message of peace and broth-
erhood. They will present
their psalms and hymns at
the United Nations as well as
at other ethnic, religious, and
multicultural events in New
York.

This historic visit is a
result of the Dec. 16, 1987

visit to the Castlegar area by
Douglas Roche, Canada's Dis-
armament Ambassador.
Negotiations were underta-
ken to have a Doukhobor
choir participate at the spec-
ial session.

The first session was held
in 1973 when George Igna
tieff and Geoffrey Pearson
were highly instrumental in
the creation of a world con-
terence on disarmament. The
second special session was
held in 1982.

Eaflier this year Castlegar
was accepted into the United
Nations Association as a
local branch. It will have a
vocal representation this
summer. The choir plans to
visit Spokane on June 5 and

Tips on saving money

By TONY-VAN ALPHEN
Canadian Press

One of life's great mysteries for many people is how to
save money effectively. Week after week, the paycheque
comes in — and soon seems to vanish, leaving not a trace

behind,

Yet there are plenty of ‘ways to build savings, say

financial experts. And they don't have to be painful.

“Most people can save money,” says Gordon Pape, a
's just a matter of applying

writer on personal finances. “
yourself a little bit.”

One of the best ways of saving is to pay yourself a

salary, says chartered accountant Lyman MacInnis.

“Every pay-day you pay yourself something,” he says.
it in like paying bills. It may be only a few dollars,
's something and you can give yourself bonuses

“You work
but at least
periodically.”

Another way is to allocate a fixed percentage, say 10

per cent, of your income for savings, says MacInnis.
DON'T OVERDO

But MacInnis, a senior partner with the Toronto firm

Touche Ross, advises against going overboard.

“T've seen more of this type of saving founder because of

over-ambition than anything else. So don't’ overdo it.”

Another way of saving without much pain is to take a~
percentage of any pay raise and put it in the bank, says
Pape, author of Building Wealth: Achieving Your Financial

Goals.

Financial consultant Brian Costello says better planning
when doing the weekly shopping could leave a surprising
amount of cash for savings.

Many people run out of one food item or another before
shopping day. Off they go to the corner store where the
same product may cost up to 30-per-cent more than at the
‘supermarket,

“That 30 per cent extra out of their pockets might not
be much in a week but over the years it will certainly add
up,” says Costello in his book Your Money and How to Keep
It,

“And don't forget that these are after-tax dollars. We
have probably paid out 30 cents on the dollar to our
employer in taxes and now we are paying an extra 30 cents
on the dollar because we didn’t plan in advance.”

Another approach is to set aside at least $10 a week for
an “investing-in-myself” account, Costello suggests.

Use some of that money to buy sale-priced goods, he
says, adding that it’s also a good idea to take advantage of
coupon offers.
