Isn't this exiting what is happening here in Canada with the new budget. The Conservatives (the reigning party here) have passed the buget and in that budget is the one thing that may get my business moving. I'm talking about the rebate for renovations. It a 15% rebate with a maximum of $1350.00. The idea, I believe, is to infuse money into our ecomony but only if we use it. This is very exciting as most people who have owned thier homes for a while have some equity in them. Right now doesn't seem to be a great time to sell but it does seem to be a great time to renovate the house you already own.
There also seems to be a lift in the housing market here in Calgary where places are selling and people are looking into purchasing the homes that are on the market. I am in the mortgage side of this site . I would love to know from the realtor side how things are going and if there is a true pick up in the industry here in Alberta.
Let me know
