Edmonton First-Time Home Buyer, 904, 10050 112 Street NW, Edmonton, AB (2026)

10/16/2026

Fresh paint, new flooring, and updated fixtures can make a renovated home feel immediately appealing. But when touring an updated property, take a little extra time to look beyond the overall presentation.

Notice cabinetry alignment, flooring transitions, doors, trim, plumbing fixtures, outlets, and other finishing details. Ask when larger improvements were completed and whether documentation, warranties, or permits are available when applicable.

A renovation should improve how a home functions as much as how it looks. Understanding the quality and scope of the work can help you form a more complete impression before making a decision.

If an updated home has caught your attention, reach out and let’s talk about the questions worth asking before you move forward.

10/16/2026

🚨🏡 **THE TRUE COST OF OVERPRICING YOUR HOME!** 💰⏳

💥 **Think pricing your home high gives you more room to negotiate? THINK AGAIN!**

One of the biggest mistakes home sellers make is believing they can start high and simply lower the price later if their home doesn't sell.

📊 **But here's what the numbers in this example reveal:**

🏡 **No Price Reduction:** 30 days on market ✅

📉 **5% Price Reduction:** 78 days

📉 **6% Price Reduction:** 89 days

📉 **7% Price Reduction:** 88 days

📉 **8% Price Reduction:** 99 days

📉 **9% Price Reduction:** 103 days! 😱

⚠️ **THE LESSON?**

The longer your home sits on the market, the more buyers begin to wonder... **"What's wrong with it?"** 🤔

Overpricing can mean:

❌ Fewer showings and less buyer interest

❌ Losing that critical initial marketing momentum

❌ Multiple price reductions

❌ More time carrying your mortgage, taxes and utilities

❌ Potentially selling for LESS than you could have with the right pricing strategy!

🎯 **PRICING ISN'T ABOUT WHAT YOU WANT FOR YOUR HOME. IT'S ABOUT WHAT BUYERS ARE WILLING TO PAY!**

With over **40 years of Edmonton real estate experience**, I've seen firsthand how the right pricing and marketing strategy can make all the difference.

💚 **The Right Marketing Plan & Strategy Matters!**

🏙️🔥 **WHO WOULD PREFER TO LIVE AND WORK IN CALGARY OVER EDMONTON?** 🤔

Before you answer… **TAKE A LOOK AT THESE NUMBERS!** 👀👇

Calgary might have the mountains nearby, a booming downtown, and plenty of hype… but does that make it a better place to live?

📊 A comparison of Canadian cities based on estimated living costs and quality-of-life scores reveals something interesting!

🏙️ **CALGARY**\
💰 Rent + Living Costs: 76% of median take-home pay\
⭐ Quality of Life: 95th percentile

🏡 **EDMONTON**\
💰 Rent + Living Costs: 68% of median take-home pay\
⭐ Quality of Life: 74th percentile

🔥 **HERE'S THE BIG QUESTION!**

Is a higher quality-of-life score worth spending more of your hard-earned money every month?

💚 Edmonton offers some compelling advantages:

✅ More breathing room in your monthly budget

✅ More opportunities to put money toward homeownership

✅ Less financial pressure from everyday living expenses

✅ A great place to build a career, raise a family, and invest in your future

💥 **CALGARY MAY WIN ON THIS QUALITY-OF-LIFE SCORE… BUT EDMONTON HAS A STRONG VALUE ADVANTAGE!**

And when you're thinking about buying a home, keeping more of your income matters!

📢 **TIME FOR A FRIENDLY BATTLE OF ALBERTA!** 🥊

👇 If you could live and work in either city, which would you choose?

🔵 **CALGARY** — Better lifestyle, even if it costs more?

🟢 **EDMONTON** — Better affordability and more financial flexibility?

💬 **COMMENT CALGARY OR EDMONTON BELOW!**

And Calgary fans… tell us why! 😏🔥

I love a beautiful kitchen, but I think the best designs do more than look good. They make everyday life easier.

When planning an update, think about how you actually use the room. Where do groceries land when you walk in? Is everyday cookware easy to reach? Is there enough task lighting for food preparation? Can people move comfortably through the space when someone is cooking?

Thoughtful storage, practical lighting, durable materials, and an efficient layout can make a kitchen more enjoyable without relying solely on appearance.

Whether you are planning a full renovation or a few smaller improvements, start with function and build the design around it.

If you could change one thing about your kitchen, what would it be? Let me know in the comments. And if a new kitchen is part of your next move, let’s connect.

🏡🇨🇦 **WHO STILL OWNS THEIR HOME IN CANADA?** 🤔

The numbers might surprise you! 👀

According to Statistics Canada's 2021 Census, **66.5% of Canadian households owned the home they lived in**, down from 69% in 2011. 📉

But here's where things get interesting! 👇

🏆 **Newfoundland & Labrador:** 75.7% — Highest homeownership rate in Canada!

💚 **Alberta:** 70.9% — ABOVE the national average!

🌾 **Saskatchewan:** 70.7%

🏠 **Ontario:** 68.4%

🌲 **British Columbia:** 66.8%

🍁 **Quebec:** 59.9% — Lowest among the provinces!

📊 **Canada overall: 66.5%**

🔥 **LET'S TALK ABOUT ALBERTA!**

With a homeownership rate of 70.9%, Alberta stood more than 4 percentage points above the national average in 2021.

And that raises an important question…

💭 **Is homeownership becoming harder for the next generation of Canadians?**

With changing home prices, mortgage rates, down payment requirements, and the cost of living, getting into the housing market remains a major financial decision.

🏡 Here in **Edmonton**, homeownership is still a goal worth exploring — whether you're a first-time buyer, looking to move up, or considering an investment property.

💬 **I WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!**

👇 Do you think today's younger generation has a tougher time buying a home than their parents did?

YES or NO? Drop your thoughts in the comments! 🔥

🚨🏙️ **EDMONTON JUST MADE AN INTERNATIONAL LIST — AND PEOPLE ARE TAKING NOTICE!** 🇨🇦🔥

For years, Edmonton has been one of Canada's best-kept secrets. But that secret might finally be getting out! 👀

🌎 **Oxford Economics has named Edmonton one of only FIVE North American "Cities to Watch" in its 2026 Global Cities Index!**

And here's the exciting part…

🇨🇦 **EDMONTON IS THE ONLY CANADIAN CITY TO MAKE THE LIST!**

So, why is Edmonton attracting international attention?

✅ **Population Growth** 📈 — More people are choosing Edmonton as their home.

✅ **Economic Diversification** 💼 — Our economy continues to expand beyond oil and gas.

✅ **Housing Affordability** 🏡 — Edmonton remains relatively affordable compared with Canada's other major cities.

✅ **Long-Term Growth Potential** 🚀 — Economists see significant opportunities ahead.

📊 **AND THERE'S MORE!**

Edmonton improved its global ranking from **131st in 2025 to 125th in 2026**, among 1,000 cities worldwide!

🏠 **BUT WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR EDMONTON REAL ESTATE?**

Here's where things get interesting…

While Edmonton's long-term outlook is attracting attention, our current housing market is telling a different story.

📉 Home prices have softened in some segments.

🏘️ Inventory has increased.

🤝 Buyers have more choices and negotiating opportunities.

And sellers? **Your pricing, presentation, and marketing strategy matter more than ever!**

💡 **A growing city doesn't automatically mean rising home prices tomorrow.** But long-term population and economic growth could create significant opportunities for homeowners, buyers and investors.

I've been helping people buy and sell Edmonton real estate since 1985, and one thing I've learned is that understanding where the market is heading is just as important as knowing where it stands today.

🔥 **NOW I WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!**

👇 **Do you believe Edmonton is still one of Canada's most underrated cities, or has the rest of the country finally discovered what we've known all along?**

Found a home you love? Before making an offer, I encourage buyers to turn some of that excitement into information.

Start with four questions. How long has the property been on the market? Are there known issues or disclosures to review? What can comparable properties tell you about the local market? Which offer terms are most important for your particular situation?

The answers will not automatically tell you what to offer, but they can give you valuable context for a more informed conversation about your next move.
Buying a home is a major decision, and thoughtful questions are an important part of the process.

Save this Reel for your home search, and reach out when you are ready to discuss your next step.
