The Best of All Worlds

If you were to choose a theme for real estate in the Calgary area in 2012, perhaps it would be the "year of the pleasant surprise".

Heading into 2012, CREB® predicted an 11 per cent increase in sales, citing the persistent record low interest rates that have greeted Canada homebuyers since 2009 as a key contributor to the increase. Instead, the Calgary area experienced a 23 per cent increase in year-over-year sales in October and is headed for equally positive numbers by the end of the year.
