Alberta Regaining Economic Strength
Calgary Real Estate News
CALGARY — The boom returned with a bang to Alberta, which was home to the country’s fastest growing economy last year, new Statistics Canada figures show.
The federal agency says real gross domestic product advanced 5.2 per cent in 2011 — the province’s highest economic growth rate since 6.2 per cent in 2006.
Douglas Porter, deputy chief economist with BMO Capital Markets, said Alberta’s growth rate last year exceeded BMO estimates.
“The province is leading the rest of the country by a country-mile in terms of job growth recently, and we’re seeing an echo of that in retail sales as well,” he said. “What’s driving it, simply put, is the strength in oil prices and the rapid rise in production in the province — and alongside of that we’re seeing large population inflows into the province.” Want to read more in depth on this article?

Staging for Quick Sell
Calgary Real Estate News
CALGARY, AB – Whether the housing market is up or down, homeowners looking to sell their homes hope they will sell quickly and sell high.
Some factors in the sale can’t be controlled, but one thing owners can do to increase the odds of a quicker sale is staging the home.
So, we asked the experts:
What can be gained by home staging and how do you do it?
“Staging a home allows buyers to fully understand the space,” says David Magnan, real estate agent for Royal LePage. “Spaces are defined more clearly and it often creates a more luxurious feel.”
When potential buyers enter in a home, they tend to make a decision fairly quickly and a staged home will attract more interest. Want to read more in depth on this article? Just click the link below.

Bidding Drives Home Sale to $6 Million, 3rd Highest in Calgary
Calgary Real Estate News
It is a testament to Calgary’s strong luxury home market.
An upscale Britannia home recently sold for $6 million in just days, as multiple bids upped the price by $1 million from its original listing, making it the third most expensive MLS sale ever in the city, the Herald has learned.
The custom-built twostorey-plus sandstone estate property has more than 10,000 square feet of development with a third-level observatory loft and an elevator.
According to the Calgary Real Estate Board, the top two MLS sales ever in Calgary are for $10.5 million in Elbow Park/ Glencoe in August 2009 and $8 million in Crescent Heights in June 2008.
The Britannia property was listed and sold by Rooney Cronin + Valentine of Re/Max Real Estate Central. Sue Anne Valentine was the listing agent and Donna Rooney was the buyer’s agent.
Valentine and Rooney were also the listing agents on the record sale in 2009 of the $10.5-million property once owned by former Calgary Flames goaltender Mike Vernon.
