A Note From Kelly 

 

Although we are still experiencing cold weather and snow, the more frequent warmer days are signalling spring is near, and with it our spring market. 

Figures released from the Calgary Real Estate Board (CREB) show that for the second month in a row, single family home sales increased over the previous month figures. In January 2011, the number of single family home sales was 791.  In February 2011, that number increased to 1,169, an increase of approximately 48%.  Condominium sales for February were 468, compared to 302 sales in January.

As I write this on March 11th, our team has done 33 deals so far this month.  This is an impressive increase from the previous month and confirms that we are going to have a very good spring market.

QR-Codes (Quick Response Codes) are two dimensional barcodes that are designed to have their contents decoded at high speed.  They first hit mainstream when they were initially used for tracking parts by vehicle manufacturers.  It didn't take long for companies to see the benefits of using the QR-Codes in many other areas.

McQueenThe "King of Cool" apparently found a measure of peace in Santa Paula, Calif., where he could stash his collection of cars, planes, and motorcycles, and the locals didn't seem to think it was such a big deal that a legendary movie star was living in their midst.
