Welcome to our Newsletter, September, 2024

Dear Reader,

I hope you had a wonderful summer filled with happy memories and lots of vitamin D. With fall quickly approaching, cooler days begin to creep up on us. As the weather begins to cool, studies have shown our productivity increases, since our bodies don’t need to work as hard to maintain their internal temperature, freeing up our energy to be productive.

Maybe that productivity has you considering a fall reno project. The fall is a good time to scan your home and ask yourself what repairs or replacements are needed before they pile up on each other.

Welcome to our Real Estate Newsletter, June, 2024!

Dear Reader,

Have you ever noticed that some TV shows stereotype lawyers, doctors, and even real estate agents like me?

Real estate agents, for example, are often seen hammering in lawn signs, hosting open houses, and making deals.

But, of course, there’s more to the story than that.

Sure, I do a lot of work for my clients during a transaction — helping them find and buy the home of their dreams and, in many cases, helping them sell their current properties, quickly and for the best price.

But there are many less glamorous things I do for clients that don’t make it on a TV show that are still important to you.

I stick with my clients for the long-term, helping them maximize the enjoyment of their homes. I do that by staying in touch…

2024 Market Forecast for Edmonton

 The Realtors Association of Edmonton just had their 2024 Housing Forecast, so we wanted to break down some key elements of what was discussed.

With all of the factors heading into this year (e.g. increased migration to Alberta, potential for significant interest rate decreases and shortage of detached single-family homes), this could be a very exciting year in the real estate world.

If you have any questions, or would like to discuss any of the above in further detail, please do not hesitate to reach out to the YEGListings Group!

Do you know what changes are coming with the new Zoning Bylaw?

With no apparent relief from elevated interest rates on the horizon, the shortage of inventory is helping keep sales volumes (and average sales prices) at reasonable levels. Sales volumes are up across the board versus same month last year, but down compared to Sept 2023.

For more information on how this has impacted your property, or any other questions, reach out to the YEGListings Group!

Interest Rates: Boosting Buyer Power In 2024. Talks circulate about a drop in interest rates starting in spring. Good news for savvy buyers! Lower rates mean more purchasing power, letting you stretch your budget. From entry-level homes to mid-size luxury, the possibilities expand.
