Dear Friends and Partners,
Despite the turmoil, change and a sluggish economy, there are many new commercial buildings being proposed downtown. If oil can keep above $60 bbl and climb further, the growth of the downtown core should continue.
There is concern that non-government backed buildings will be shelved if the economy falters for a prolonged period. Currently though, developers are taking an optimistic approach with two new high-rise developments tabled this week.

We received a bottle of wine from a pipe company that invests in a vineyard in South America. It seemed a very interesting turn from pipe to grapes. Apparently wine investing is not that uncommon. It's not something I would do but interesting nontheless.Watch the video at CBC

Dear Friends and Partners,
As we dip into Q2 its like a touch of spring optimism with the occasional chill of winter caution. You can see some interesting developments in Northern BC and Western Alberta in regards to Suncore's sale of their conventional gas play to two U.K. based companies. I see this as a very positive sign for Suncore to redeploy this … (0 comments)

Dear Friends and Partners,
I took part in pretty good workshop last week and here's one of the takeaways I got; "If you want people to listen to you, listen to them". Simple enough, right? Something good to practice everyday and double time over the holidays.
At this event we were seated in tables of 5. I immediately noticed that my partner for … (1 comments)

alberta real estate investing news: Financially Frostbitten - Warm up Today.
- 12/02/10 09:45 AM
If you're like me, over the next few weeks you won't just be checking your Christmas list - but your goal list for '10 and '11. What works best for me is to track and measure my progress in a 90 day format, breaking goals down to weekly and daily targets. At the end of the year Danielle and I sit down and plan the New Year goals we have, both business and pleasure. I read an interesting interview about a South African band that I like. Upon finally getting their 'big break' in the U.S., the interviewer asked the band … (2 comments)

Isn't August an amazing month? I hope that you're feeling as energized as I am. There is so much to do; festivals to attend, BBQs to have, lakes to swim in and great properties to invest in! As you know this month we take a little time off to reconnect with ourselves, our family and the great outdoors. I'll be doing a canoeing trip in the Rockies with a wonderful friend that Danielle and I traveled throughout India with 12 years ago. In addition to that, my Mom will be out visiting for a few weeks. But enough about me... What … (1 comments)

Other countries around the world are in serious economic turmoil but Canada is blessed to have the most stable economy. Among Canada's provinces Alberta is the most balanced with the healthiest economy and growing infrastructure to support population/investment growth. You may read the the oil sands are bust and all the projects have stopped but this is not accurate. There are still over $170 billion projects underway only $90 billion have been delayed. Don't kid yourself, the need for oil is increasing while the production of oil is decreasing. Until the world finds a way to make a solar car (or … (0 comments)

Housing market hit by economic uncertainty - " A report out from RE/MAX today says the global economic crunch has made an impact on housing sales in major Canadian cities towards the end of 2008. About 440 000 homes are expected to change hands in Canada this year, that's a 15 percent drop from record levels in 2007. Here in Edmonton, just under 19 000 homes will have been sold by the time 2008 is said and done with. That would mark an 8 percent drop from last year's number of 20 437. The average house price in Edmonton dropped only … (1 comments)
