The attraction to the area is more than economic potential from oil or gas, we are nestled in the parkland, and surrounded by vistas and landscapes with impressive views and scenes. Red Deer and the surrounding communities get a lot of press regarding the Oil and Gas Industry, rightly so, however the community has a […]

Recently I was having a conversation about the market with a few friends and colleagues. Those that were not Realtors were asking about the so called price decline in Listings. “How much do you think the market will fall?” they asked me. I look at them and reply “fall?”. […]

Red Deer September Market Update:

There was in fact within the City of Red Deer 158 […]

There is so much to see and do in Central Alberta in any season. Recently I had an opportunity to take some time off with a few friends and enjoy a round of golf. Sure there was a frost delay as there are in many areas across Canada this time of year, but […]
