December 22, 2010 what an amazing day!  We wanted to give something back to the amazing little community of River Springs in Coquitlam British Columbia where we not do a lot of business but also where we like to do our Real Estate business.  We had heard there was an urgent appeal for help from area Food Banks for help.

coquitlam: A Must see Christmas Light display - 3313 Rae St, Port Coquitlam, BC - 12/19/10 09:35 AM

When I came upon this home I could not but immediately think of the hillarious scene from National Lampoon's Christmas where Clark Griswald, always over the top with sentimentality, completely covers his house with Christmas lights that blind the neighbours with intensity when he finally gets them to work.
This beautiful display located on the northside of Port Coquitlam real estate is right up there with the best and is a must see on any Tri-Cities Xmas lights tour. Well worth a drive out from Maple Ridge:  … (2 comments)

CLICK HERE To search homes for sale in Greater Vancouver & the Fraser Valley
As a REALTOR® I come across wonderful older homes that just need a little update to make them look fresher and provide the modern amenity that most buyers want.  One such way is to update the bathroom, a task that conjures up fear in the mind of most home D.I.Y.ers.  The thought of having to remove a bathtub and then replace with a new tub into the existing framed structure are worhty of such fears.  This task can include having to remove the ceiling below in some … (6 comments)

coquitlam: Port Coquitlam Railroad Overpass nears completion - 01/07/10 05:05 PM
Today I was marveling at the nearing completion phase of the Port Coquitlam railway overpass project at Coast Meridian.  This near 100 million dollar project will link up the North and South sides of Port Coquitlam eliminating the bottlenecks at the Shaughnessy railroad underpass and the Mary Hill Bypass.

The massive changes and reorienting of the road network are mind boggling.  The most obvious change that this overpass project has forced is noticeable at the Coast Meridian and Lougheed Hwy where the Tim Hortons and PoCo Inn and Suites have had significant changes to their access and sites.
This project … (0 comments)

I had just nicely come home from a beautiful morning spent showing some waterfront & water access only property on Pitt Lake when I saw the headline in the Maple Ridge Times newspaper.
Ayla Canoe told to move out
It seems that the 20 year lease of the property from the provincial government to the regional district of Dewdney Alouette and it's successor Metro Vancouver is coming to an end December 31, 2009.  The Williams family, a fixture of the Pitt Lake area have been running Ayla Canoe on the waterfront, living in and caretaking Grants Narrows Park for decades.  Doing a … (1 comments)

coquitlam: BC Increases threshold for new BC HST Real Estate purchases - 11/19/09 09:01 AM
The Province is proposing to increase the threshold for the B.C. HST new housing rebate from $400,000 to $525,000 to ensure that, on average, purchasers of new homes up to $525,000 pay no more tax due to harmonization, Finance Minister Colin Hansen announced today.

"We heard the concerns from consumers and industry about how the HST might affect home buyers, and this increase will move the threshold to above the average new home price in the province. At $26,250, this provides the highest maximum provincial rebate in Canada," said Hansen. "A similar rebate will also support the construction or substantial … (1 comments)
