They say there is nothing quite like home-sweet-home, and they're right. Our homes are where our families grow, our treasured possessions are kept, our pictures are on the wall and our memories are made. When we're not at home, we crave our bed and miss knowing just how much to turn the tap to get the perfect temperature of water. Our homes are deeply personal, a major part of our lives. 

Perhaps we're getting sentimental. After all, Valentine's Day is just one week away. However, we are firm believers in the importance of a home, not only because so many people are not fortunate enough to have one, but because homes do play a major role in our lives. 

We love our home! But do we always treat it with love? No. Sometimes we let it fall into…

Right now the Calgary real estate market has a lot of inventory. With more homes available to buyers, sellers need to make sure their home has a competitive advantage over the others. Here are some ways you can make your home stand apart from the rest:

Make Sure The Price is Right: Properties priced at market value generate more buyer interest. When you list a home for more than it is worth, buyers will be immediately turned off. When you list a home for way less than it is worth, you miss out on the chance to get…

Calling all developers, first time buyers and investors!

This massive 50x120 FT M-CG zoned lot features an approximately 900 square foot raised bungalow. With three bedrooms upstairs and one non-conforming bedroom suite downstairs, this home has plenty of living space.

The lower suite features big windows and has it's own separate entrance. Right now it contains a large den, but this could easily be transformed into a fifth bedroom. A shared laundry also resides in the basement.

The new mortgage rules that we have been warning you about have finally arrived. Global News writes that as of "January 1st, 2018, Canadians getting, renewing or refinancing a mortgage might have to prove that they would be able to cope with interest rates substantially higher than their contract rate." This stress test is to ensure that anyone applying for a mortgage could handle that mortgage, no matter what the interest rates jump to. 

While this may not seem like a major deal, a recent "analysis by the Bank of Canada suggested... some 10 per cent of Canadians who got an uninsured mortgage between mid-2016 and mid-2017 would not have qualified under the new standards" (Global News). Even those able to put a full 20% down or more on their future home…

For many Canadians, seeing America's panic over the bomb cyclone sweeping over the southern states and up the coast has been somewhat comical. As they experience high winds, snow and plunging temperatures, some regions are calling states of emergency. For those of us in Canada, high winds, snow and plunging temperatures are an average winter day. It's called a blizzard, and we have survived many. 

However, we need to be somewhat empathetic. Cities such as Calgary who experience bomb cyclone-like conditions regularly are well equipped to handle the intense weather; places in the southern states are not. In many of the areas that the bomb cyclone is passing over, cities don't have a fleet of snow plows ready to go when needed, vehicles don't have winter…
