The Burnaby real estate market is still holding steady. Usually, our schedules are filled showing our mid-priced homes, but latey, we’ve been outrageously busy with our higher end houses. It just goes to show that demand for high end homes goes in waves. Sometimes, we have apartment and townhome buyers flooding the market. Other times, we have more buyers interested in expensive homes, which ...
A number of weeks ago, we discussed the powerful impact the Power Within workshop had on us. Most times, workshops are great in getting you fired up for the afternoon, but then the next day, that feeling of trying to improve sales, lose that weight, start that business, or live your best life has disappeared along with hefty price tag you paid to attend the seminar. Fortunately, this one was ...

The interesting thing about this apartment is that the property management company also manages all the rentals. On one ...
Well, looking at the weather today, it looks like Spring is here. (But given our finicky weather, I could be wrong tomorrow!) Life and work have been busy since Spring Break wrapped up. Although our son is finished his regular hockey season, he’s now in a spring league, which is just as busy as his regular schedule. Between driving the kids to hockey, dance, and skating practice and rushing ...
Well, Spring Break is definitely over. The kids are back in school and we’ve settled back into our daily routine. No more sleeping in late, watching TV all day or staying in PJs all day - for the kids anyway! Our son wrapped up his winter hockey league last weekend. Going in, we weren’t sure what to expect.
