Saskatoon Real Estate - RE/MAX Saskatoon

Normally, "hot spot" isn't the first phrase that comes to mind when talking about Saskatchewan, Canada. But with most of Canada suffering from devastating job losses, this cold province is becoming exactly that. It's an asterisk to the entire country when it comes to the economic climate, and Premier Brad Wall is shouting it as ...

Happy new year.  Now the 2009 is upon us i thought it would be a great time to shed some NEW light on the Saskatoon Real Estate market. There has been a lot of media coverage over the last 6 months and most of it down right awful. I however have to disagree with most of it. You see most of the coverage has surrounded Canada as a whole, but ...

Global economic uncertainty weighed heavily on residential real estate activity in most major Canadian centres during the latter half of 2008.  Although the forecast for 2009 promises more of the same, most markets are expected to weather the storm, says RE/MAX.   The RE/MAX Housing Market Outlook for 2009 examined residential real ...

SASKATOON, CANADA - Even in the face of a possible global economic slow down, the Saskatoon region continues to lead the country as the fastest growing city in Canada, with the retail and wholesale trade and construction sectors pushing the projected gross domestic product (GDP) growth for 2008 to 5.2 per cent.  In addition to these ...

Part 1 - The Reno Part 2 - The Listing Part 3 - The Offer Now that we have been through the physical labor of getting the place ready for sale. The emotional toil of waiting and praying that a good offer will come, its now time to see what we got. So as i mentioned in earlier posts we wanted to try our house on the open market for a few days ...

Part 2 - The Listing  Continued from Part 1 - The Reno Ok. So now that the house is in tip top shape its time to call the real estate agent and get this house on the market. Oh wait, I am the agent. So as I do with every property I have to run the numbers, to see what the actual value of the house is. It's funny when I ...

My own house sale Part 1 - The Reno Hello all. Well this is it. Me and my wife have decided to sell our first house for an opportunity to build in Stone Bridge. It was not an easy decision, we love our area Greystone Heights and our neighbours are fantastic, and the location 2 doors from a park on a quiet street are definite bonuses. We just ...

By nature I'm not one to brag or boost of myself or our team. It's another thing when some does it for you. Re/Max Saskatoon and Team Toledo are very proud of our accomplishments over the last year (2007)! At our annual awards in Vancouver B.C last week we picked up some very significant awards and acknowledgments. Ask anyone and they ...

I feel as if i must start this post out as a "state of the union" address. We are not getting to a point but we are there, where if YOU as a buyer are not working with a real estate professional you are DEFINITELY missing out. I would think that housing is now less than a couple days on the market before it has a conditional ...

To stage or not to stage, this is the question? I'm curious to know those out there that have sold homes in the past if you have put any effort into staging your house? What about those who have recently bought, was the house you purchased "staged" or presented well or did you have to "look past" to see the true ...
