Yeah I think we need to define what it is that we are looking for.

I believe that one or two questions asking about *certain variable* vs housing value would be the most we should have as a survey question because we only have 5 questions to put on the survey and I'm sure we'll have other things we want to ask. That being said, I liked Brian's direction with the questions, but we might want to try to aggregate all of them into one question?

I think if we were to conduct a survey we have to know who are the population that we are interested in targeting. Than we have to know how we are going to conduct this survey via : telephone, social services, or in person. Therefore, if we are wanting to conduct a survey on Real Estate for the GVRD than I suggest we start with a small sample since that could be more accurate: city/municipality vs. housing value in that particular city/municipality. Do you guys agree ?


Possible questions to consider would be: 1) Are the rates of mortgage approval in GVRD affordable? 2) Did you have an agent assisting when buying your property? 3) Has the crisis in Japan affected your real estate decisions in any way?

It was a typo Rabi thanks for bringing that issue to my attention.

I've been thinking, maybe we're getting a bit to ahead of ourselves here. We should probably first establish whether or not the respondent owns property or is renting, then from there we can pursue further questions depending on the answers.I believe there were called filter questions?

Perhaps:

Do you own your place of residence? ->No -> Would you plan on owning property in the GVRD?-> Then ask about current prices

Do you own your place of residence? ->Yes-> Do you currently have a mortgage?


Dren what do you mean by the GTA? Are you referring to the Greater Toronto Area?
