Once again demand for real estate is up and supply is down on a year over year basis in the greater Edmonton area. But, before we start to see home prices increase, we will need to see improvement on the employment side of things, according to Senior market analyst at CMHC Heather Bowyer: “Overall we’re seeing the Edmonton market operate below pre-recession levels,” she says. “Even looking on the labour side of the market — what really drives housing demand — we’re seeing lower employment, specifically full-time... If we see those fundamentals improve, then we can expect to see housing demand improve, but it will be a while still before we see conditions we saw during the boom periods in Edmonton.” With that said, the BoC cut rates this week, which…

Winter is a great time to tackle the home renovation projects you’ve been putting off. Here are some reasons why:

It’s a slow time for contractors.

Every trade is different, but for many renovation contractors the winter is a slower time. Therefore, they might have more availability and you won’t have to fight for their time. That means more flexible scheduling and quicker end dates for your home remodel. Because there is less demand for their services, less supply is required. Some contractors might be more willing to negotiate prices on projects when they have less to work on.

Suppliers are clearing last year’s stock.

Awards season is not just for celebrities, real estate agents receive awards at this time of year as well. In the industry, agents are typically given awards for selling a lot of real estate, which in our minds, does not necessarily equate to being a great real estate agent.

Customer ratings and testimonials are available on each agent’s bio page on our…
