That segment’s inventory numbers are down 8.5% to 863 units and sales were up 19% compared to last year. Benchmark prices have jumped up 0.59% since last month, howeve ...

February Stat Pack

March 17th, 2017
After the month of February, we are still showing positive signs for 2017. Although sales were up nearly 20% from this time last year, the numbers are still off by 19% from the 10 year average. It will be interesting to see how the long term averages are affected when 2007 comes off the books next year. It was crazy that year! Hard to believe that is already a decade past. Every segment was l ...

Humidity in Your Home

March 4th, 2017
During the winter months you will probably notice condensation on your windows especially on colder days. The reason for this is that windows are the coldest part of your home. When hot air from inside the home makes contact with the cold surface of the window, any moisture in the air condenses and turns into water droplets on your window. You may also see condensation on your walls. This may ...

January Stat Pack

Although that’s not a big feat as last January was a record setting slow month, but hey, we are glass half full people here! The last few weeks have been really busy.

November Stat Pack

December 9th, 2016
After sales in October gave a false glimmer of hope, here we are looking in the rear view mirror for November and sales are back to where they were. October saw a 16% spike in sales activity, however, that was primarily due to the new mortgage rules implemented by the Feds. Buyers rushed to market to get their financing in under the wire. City of Calgary sales were off by 3% from this time la ...

Refinancing Could Save You $1,000’s

November 18th, 2016
I know there are a lot of people out there that are pretty comfortable with their mortgage. The banks send you a renewal notice and it’s easy to just keep making the payments. Most people don’t even check the rate to make sure it’s competitive. The last renewal I had, the bank sent me a notice saying their ‘competitive’ rate was 4%. At the time, 3.19% was the going rate. I’m glad a checked! W ...

October Stat Pack

November 6th, 2016
So earlier this month there was a big hoop-la (is that even a word?) about the new mortgage rules the feds implemented. If you haven’t heard, as of October 17th, people applying for a mortgage with less than 20% down will now have to qualify at the Bank of Canada’s posted rate. Currently that sits at 4.64% which is considerably higher than most of the big bank’s interest rates of under 2.5% f ...
