How to sell a Calgary home in October?

Mon, 22 Sep 2025 21:31:11 GMT

Take advantage of fall buyers: Families who wanted to move before the school year may have wrapped up, but motivated buyers (downsizers, relocations, investors) are still active before winter slows the market.
Price competitively: October buyers tend to be serious. Homes priced right from the start will sell faster than those that “test the market.”
Boost curb appeal before the snow: Keep leaves raked, gutters clean, and add seasonal touches like pumpkins, potted mums, or a fall wreath.
Light it up: Shorter days mean more evening showings—add warm LED lighting indoors and outdoors to create a cozy feel.
Showcase warmth: If you have a fireplace, make it a focal point. Stage with throw blankets, warm-toned pillows, and fall décor to make the home feel inviting.
Stay on top of maintenance: Calgary buyers are weather-conscious—service the furnace, clean windows, and show proof of roof or exterior upkeep.
Be showing-ready for early snow: Have mats at the door, a boot tray, and maybe even disposable shoe covers for buyers.
Keep the home comfortable: A chilly house can be a turn-off—ensure the temperature is pleasant during showings.
Emphasize move-in readiness: Buyers don’t want projects before winter—highlight a finished basement, new windows, updated furnace, or insulated garage.

Celebrate 80 Years of Freedom

Mon, 05 May 2025 21:38:09 GMT

Today marks the 80th anniversary of the Liberation of The Netherlands.

On May 5, 1945, Canadian forces freed the Netherlands from five years under German occupation.

The Dutch remain eternally thankful to the courageous Canadians who overcame the Nazis.

In Okotoks, Anneke and Gary Scholten placed 80 tulips on the "Salute to our Veterans" wall to honour this occasion and honour all those who fought for our freedom, a gift we cherish every day.
