The Government Has Made Changes

In the government's never ending attempt to influence the market, control risks to the larger economy (bubbles in Vancouver / Toronto), spur / restrict the economy, encourage home ownership, fund budgets (BC speculator tax), and otherwise create headaches for people wanting to buy, this is a list of the changes wrought to the mortgage industry in the last decade:

Confusing? This is why I stress the importance of using an experienced mortgage broker.  Someone who tracks these changes.  So you don't have to.

Airdrie Small Town Feel, Big City Amenities - Creb Now

Courtesy the city of Airdrie

With its storied history, convenient location and family-friendly atmosphere, Airdrie continue to attract young families and entrepreneurs in droves.

The city’s population has swelled from just under 11,500 to almost 71,000 in just 30 years. However, despite its growth, Airdrie has retained all the attributes of a connected village.

“We love the small-town feel, absolutely love it,” said artist Sandra Kliewer. She and her husband, Nathan, along with their three children and dog, moved to Airdrie four years ago from Mexico City, where they had been living and working for over seven years.

Although born and raised in B.C.’s lower mainland, the family had…

CREB has recently released an informational article on the beautiful Mount Pleasant community, in Calgary. Let's take a look together, and see what it has in store for us!

 

About Mount Pleasant:

The lands that became northwest Calgary’s Mount Pleasant community were annexed by the City in 1910, making it one of Calgary’s older neighbourhoods. When development began in the area in 1912, Calgary’s population numbered fewer than 50,000 people.

As the city grew to 100,000 people by 1947 and 200,000 by 1955, then-suburban Mount Pleasant experienced an influx of new amenities into the area when North Hill Centre opened its doors in 1958. The opening of the Tran-Canada Highway came four years later, establishing the new thoroughfare as the…

Dealing with Stress when Selling Your Home 

Let's face it. Planning events, even exciting ones like an overseas vacation, can be stressful. So, it's not surprising that some homeowners — even those thrilled about moving — can slip into "worry mode" when putting their property up for sale. 

Unfortunately, this anxiety can make the process of selling an unpleasant experience. Who wants that? So here are some things you can do to reduce selling stress and enjoy the adventure. 

  • Understand the selling process. The more you know about the steps involved in selling your home, the less mysterious — and, therefore, less stressful — it will be.
  • Give yourself the time you need. Feeling rushed and stressed comes from trying to do too much in too little…

No matter what you think of snakes, you must agree that they have a unique way of dealing with worn-out skin. When the time comes, they simply shed it — like an old jacket — revealing a fresh new skin underneath. 

Your home's roof doesn't have that advantage! So, when the shingles wear out or become damaged, you need to have them replaced. 

Unfortunately, it's not always easy to determine whether your shingles need replacement right away, or whether you can hold off for another year. Assuming your home has the most common type of shingles — asphalt — here's what to look for:  • Corners upturned on some shingles.  • Missing shingles.  • Shingles lifting during high winds and not settling back into place (flat) within a day or two.  •…

4 Spring Cleaning Tips to Keep Your House Sparkling

 

There's no better feeling than a clean, clutter-free house.

Planning a little spring cleaning this season? Here are some tips to help:

  • Declutter and donate first. There's no point in cleaning items you no longer want or use!

  • Go room by room. Use a checklist to ensure each space gets a deep clean.
