TGIF – Young Leaders

Over the past couple of years, we have seen, both nationally and internationally,  the power of effective, smart, young leaders.  For much longer, Re/max of Western Canada has valued the contribution of committed young leaders with their annual Quest for Excellence bursaries to graduating students from Western Canada. 16 students who contribute to enriching the lives of others and their communities through leadership, motivation, volunteering and participation in charitable events or fund raising will each receive a $1000 bursary again in 2020 – following in this Re/max tradition.  In addition to the bursary, one lucky student will also receive a hot air balloon ride from the closest major city.

HOW TO APPLY?  Write an essay detailing your contributions to your communities, displaying leadership qualities, then submit it on line at remax.ca.  DEADLINE is March 9, 2020 and award recipients will be notified in April with formal presentation at student commencement ceremonies. Any further questions should be directed to Marie Sheppy,  Manager of corporate affairs – msheppy@remax.net

Good luck to our outstanding citizens of tomorrow from us all and we agree with the Regional Executive VP of Re/max Western Canada, Elton Ash,  who is “incredibly proud of this program, because it helps empower these young leaders on their journey.”

Locally our real estate market is still low on inventory with quick sales taking place, some in multiple offer situations, causing a continuing uptick in prices. How long this will last depends on our inventory count, which could well increase considerably should we have a traditional Spring market.  However, traditional markets now seem to be a thing of the past, so all we know is what we have now and our crystal balls are worn out!  Long term, real estate is always a safe investment – it is the difficulty of predicting the month to month, year to year peaks and valleys which are affected by so many yet unknowns.

As a full time professional real estate team, we are ready, willing and able to answer your questions and apply the market conditions to your sale or purchase.  

Our clients are always our first priority – we have you covered regardless of climate.
