There are some very good pockets of opportunity out there. As an avid investor and advisor, it is my job to find these and pass this onto my core group of clients. I have made lots of people money over the years, and as an investor myself, I will only advise my clients to buy something that I too would put my money into.

How can I help my clients reach their goal? I often ask myself this question, and I look at each customer in a "CUSTOM"er sense. Wether I am helping them SELL or BUY, I always strategize each situation. I always pair it back to a simplistic perspective and move forward from there. As with every puzzle, if there is a piece missing, it just does not look right, when it comes to marketing, make sure all the pieces are in place and the puzzle creates its own solution and becomes complete.

Now is the time to buy! The MLS listings are down 30% and the sales count is up. A few factors will push the market up over the next year or two. 1) Oil prices, and the turmoil occuring around the globe-thanks to the internet among other things. 2) The economy is stabalizing, in our country at least, and they are coming - inmigration to Alberta will Rock and Roll over the next few years. 3) We have a majority government, thank goodness, decisions WILL be made and no elections for at least 4 ...

Calgary, May 2, 2011 ? According to figures released today by CREB® (Calgary Real Estate Board), City of Calgary year-to-date sales declined by 4 per cent compared to the first four months of 2010. The decline was offset by a 14 per cent drop in listings recorded over the same period, resulting in lower inventory levels, and a moderate growth in average prices.

Alberta and Calgary more specifically, seem to be bouyed by the commodity driven economy we are blessed with, our economy forges ahead regardless of what the rest of the country or world are doing. For example, housing prices are up 3.73% in the first quarter of 2011 when compared to the same quarter for 2010.

Successfully Navigating The Changing World of Mortgages
The world of mortgages is changing. To paraphrase the old Joni Mitchell song, most consumers will not know what they've got until it's gone.
They won't realize that by the time a mortgage is paid off, borrowers have paid two or three times the original amount borrowed - the mortgage principal - to buy real estate they originally bargained hard for to cut costs.They won't understand what they could have done to increase their real estate ...

Higher interest rates will raise homeownership costs.
We expect the Bank of Canada will resume its rate hiking campaign by the second quarter of 2011, which will eventually have a more sustained upward effect on mortgage rates. In our view, higher mortgage rates will be the dominant factor raising homeownership costs over the medium term. As a home buyer, the new rate changes WILL affect affordability to the tune of around $25,000. Assuming you can afford a 400k home, your affordability will ...
