More Fast Food, Less Time Watching Breaking Bad, for Calgary Realtors
The Calgary Herald, whose paywall experiment seems to have gone away, reports today that there’re more houses being sold and bought than you can shake a stick at, despite July traditionally being a slower month, what with the Stampede taking everyone’s time (and speaking of Stampede: bacon-wrapped corn dog. That is all). The Herald uses the word ‘deluge’ to describe the rush of buyers looking to enter the market or move somewhere not described as a flood plain.
I’ve never been one to complain about having too much work, despite it elbowing its way into my personal life more and more (I continued negotiations on two offers during an intermission at Stage West not long ago) and leading to a highly irregular meal schedule, so this is great news for me. I’m still camping with the family (mobile Internet is a beautiful thing for telecommuting from the mountains), still enjoyed some Stampede shenanigans, and still managed to help some great families find great homes. This pace won’t continue forever, so right now I say, “bring it on!”.
