A great way to make money out of an investment property or a recreational property is to rent it out. The rental market is big in Calgary, because many people seek temporary residence here before buying.

Remembrance Day is this weekend on November 11th. In honor of this significant day in Canadian history, here is the history behind the poppy:

Inner city Calgary has been rebuilding and rebranding to make Calgary a safer, cleaner environment for people. Neglected neighbourhoods are getting a major facelift to make older homes safe and to give existing communities a fresh start.

One of the most tangible ways you can see this desire to rebuild is in the new infills popping up everywhere.

Infills are a great way to add modern homes to older communities.

There are many advantages to buying an infill: the home is brand new, there are existing services (such as bus routes, shopping centres, etc.) nearby and you are inner-city, rather than in a new…
