Lethbridge Real Estate Update
 
Well we are now into June 2011 and the Lethbridge real estate market is entering it's busiest part of the year.  There are LOTS of properties on the market.  The excess supply is keeping downward pressure on prices and so only the Lethbridge homes for sale that are in the nicest locations or best condition are the ones that are getting sold.  The houses that are priced too high or need work, are simply not attracting buyers.
 
Interest rates are still low and came down a fraction lower in the past week.  I can now … (0 comments)

Lethbridge Real Estate - November Market Watch
 
As the winter sets in on southern Alberta, the local real estate market prepares for the weather to start to play a more dominant role.  Typically, when the snow and cold comes the traffic to open houses, the number of showings on listed homes, and the number of home buyers who want to go out shopping always dwindles to smaller numbers.  As a result of this weather dependant behavior, home owners who are hoping to sell their properties need to be prepared for these changes.  Be a smart seller, gather real estate info.

Lethbridge Real Estate
I like to check about once a month, exactly what search terms are popular for local Lethbridge consumers.  I do this so that in my Lethbridge real estate marketing, I can stay current and keep my internet sites ranked well and present in search engines.  This helps me generate new Lethbridge real estate clients, but also close deals for my existing clients.
 
I usually start with the entire list of popular searches and then weed out all of the ones that are clearly not related to Lethbridge or real estate.  This typically includes a ton of job … (1 comments)

homes: Lethbridge Real Estate - New Listing 2430-19 Street North - 01/31/10 04:29 PM
I just listed this great Lethbridge half duplex and wanted to get it syndicated out to my blog and various websites tonight.
 

The property is located at 2430 - 19 Street North, Lethbridge.  This locations is excellent.  The home is surrounded by nice single family homes, right close to the park, and within walking distance of transportation and shopping.  This is a great neighborhood and there is virtually no traffic on the street out front.  A great place for a young family to live.
 
The home itself has had several upgrades recently.  The roof, windows, furnace, and hot … (0 comments)

Lethbridge real estate - Coulee Creek subdivision
 
 

 
In my ongoing picture and video series of various neighborhoods in Lethbridge.  This is a pic of the entrance to Coulee Creek.  For those who do not live around here, the name probably sounds pretty weird.  A "coulee" is the name given to the valley through which a river flows.  This coulee valley was formed many years ago when the rivers where hundreds of times larger and eroded a much wider and deeper path.
 
In Southern Alberta, the coulees provide a break from the flat prairie landscape.  They are … (0 comments)

Lethbridge Real Estate - Fairmont Villas adult living condos
Just a quick video for my blog from the entrance to Fairmont Villas condo complex.  These are adult living condos located in the Fairmont Park subdivision in South Lethbridge, Alberta.  These condos are very nice, half of them backing onto the lake.  These condos featured attached parking garages, full basements, and modern bright construction. 
 
The complex is walled and gated with a security gate and has neighborhood watch security as well.  The location of these condos is fantastic because of the proximity being built right no the shore of Fairmont Lake, … (13 comments)

Lethbridge Real Estate Video - Coulee Creek Subdivision
 
This is one of my first attempts at adding some Lethbridge real estate video content onto the internet.  It was pretty darn cold and I was using my crappy little point and shoot camera, but hopefully its not entirely terrible.  I am a total rookie when it comes to making and posting videos, so bear with me.  If you need help with making videos, dont call me, but if you are interested in Lethbridge real estate, then I'm your guy.
 
This video is a short clip of the Lethbridge Coulee Creek … (4 comments)

homes: A Short History of Lethbridge, Alberta - 01/03/09 05:41 AM
Several times in the recent years I have fielded questions about the history of Lethbridge or the origin of the name of the City. Since I am no expert in that particular area, I often refer people to one of my favorite local sources of information, The Galt Museum and Archives. Below is an article which they have provided explaining the history and origin of the City of Lethbridge and how it developed in the past 100 years. This article is also available in brochure form and on the City of Lethbridge website.
Enjoy,
Robert May
