Did you know that Calgary has one of the highest people : dog ratios in all of Canada?

That is right! Here in YYC we love our furry friends. Part of caring for a dog is making sure they have the space to roam and play outside to get some fresh air. That being said, here is how to make your backyard dog-friendly:

Purina writes, “Keeping your backyard fenced in is a great first step to creating a dog friendly backyard and ensuring that your dog is safe during his time outside. Make sure your fence is: Tall enough for your dog (some larger breeds of dogs need considerably higher fences, especially if they are energetic and like to jump around), free of gaps (it’s important to make sure that there are no holes or gaps in your fencing for your dog to…

Buying a home is a massive investment. No one understands this quite like Calgary, Alberta home buyers in the last three years, where benchmark prices are soaring and competition is tight! People are having to put more money on the line, which has major long term effects, in both positive and negative ways.

Buying a home is also a really complex process! Studies suggest that moving comes only second to divorce as one of the most stressful life events someone will go through. Even with an incredible real estate professional on your side, like Ken Richter, the process is quite involved and will take energy and focus to do well.

This is why you need to be thinking ahead. Buying for the interim can work if you’re looking for a more affordable entry…

Selling your beautiful home, which sits beside a not so beautiful home, can be… challenging.

We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: curb appeal is everything. Curb appeal can be defined as, “the visual attractiveness of a house as seen from the street.” It has big impact on your home’s first impression. We may be warned against judging a book by its cover, but when it comes to buying a home, buyers are immediately making judgements and assumptions on the quality of the property based on the first glance they get. This is why it is so incredibly important to make sure your property has good curb appeal!

While you can do whatever it takes you increase your own property’s curb appeal, the land around it is out of your hands. Whether owned by…

With homes becoming so expensive and more inaccessible for young people hoping to own property, many individuals are turning to their trusted love ones for help in the form of a mortgage loan co-signer. 

So, what is a co-signer? Fidelity Investments writes, "a co-signer is someone who can help a candidate qualify for a loan or mortgage when they aren't eligible on their own. Having a co-signer reduces the lender's risk as there is now more than one person responsible for ensuring repayment of the loan. With a co-signer, the loan has a backup, someone who will pay if the primary borrower doesn't. Lenders like co-signers and are more likely to lend with them. Parents may choose to act as co-signer for their children to help them qualify for a…
