Where do you want to be in 10 Years?

Dream of the future

Dream of the future



I don’t believe prices will be coming down in the next 10 years.  With the projected work the province has coming up in the next three years, steadier and rising prices in the states as well as the fact that Edmonton is third largest and fastest growing Economic center in Canada – it is very easy for me to say – No, prices won’t be coming down by next year or most likely for the next decade.

Quotes from the Housing Market outlook – Canadian Edition  – Third Quarter 2014

“Economic growth in Alberta is expected to lead all provinces in Canada over the next two years.”

‘Consumer spending is also projected to rise, supported by strong population growth and rising wages.”

“The average MLS sales price is projected to increase to $396,800 in 2014 and then to $407,000 in 2015.  A higher level or demand relative to supply will help to lift resale prices in 2014.  As 2014 progresses, new listings are expected to increase and continue rising into 2014.”

Edmonton Housing Outlook 2015

Edmonton housing prices going up again in 2015!



If you can get a home now – I encourage you to do so.  I often look at townhouses that were bought for $77,000 10 years ago and are selling now around $214,000.  The question is – where do you want to be in 10 years?
