Dear Friends and Partners,

As the warm weather stretches into October, so does the anticipation of the election. It feels like we’re holding our collective breath; for oil prices to stabilize, the Alberta budget to be announced (end of October) and the Federal leaders to be chosen.

A feeling of uncertainty leads us into Q4 and that is reflective in the housing markets (slower sales) and rental market (more vacancies). Hope for the best and plan for the worst is an ideal axiom to see you thru.

Homes near new arenas and stadiums can expect bumps in real estate value

By Mario Toneguzzi, Calgary Herald, October 13th, 2015

The construction of new arenas and stadiums has a positive impact on real estate values for nearby homes, says a new report by the Real Estate Investment Network.
“A key highlight of the research findings is: Homes in neighbourhoods close to new stadium builds — or proposed stadium builds — on average, have premiums ranging between three per cent and 15 per cent, depending on the different types of housing, parking options available, and the distance from the stadium itself,” said Don Campbell, senior analyst with REIN.  GRAB THIS STORY

Calgary, Edmonton forecast shows dramatic reversal in oil patch fortunes

By Gordon Isfeld, September 22nd., 2015

OTTAWA — The dramatic reversal of economic fortune in Alberta is most evident in its major cities, where a province-wide recession has already followed the global collapse of oil prices.
Both Calgary and Edmonton are expected to end 2015 with negative growth, as will the province as a whole, the Conference Board of Canada said in its forecasts for metropolitan economies, released Wednesday.

“After cruising at high speed over the last five years, Alberta’s economy has shifted into reverse gear this year,” the Ottawa-based think-tank said.  READ MORE HERE

Alberta economy to contract more than expected this year

By Mario Toneguzzi, Calgary Herald, September 22nd., 2015 

Continued volatility in oil prices has “aggravated already challenging economic conditions” in Alberta, leading to a further forecast decline in the province’s economy, says RBC.
The bank’s latest provincial outlook says the Alberta economy is now expected to contract by 1.3 per cent in 2015 compared to its June forecast of a one per cent drop. A return to positive territory is expected in 2016 with 0.6 per cent growth in real gross domestic product, it said.

“A renewed downturn in crude oil prices is intensifying the pressures facing the hard-hit energy sector in 2015,” Craig Wright, senior vice-president and chief economist with RBC, said in a statement. “Prospects for a relatively short bout of contraction were further dampened with drought conditions, wildfires and disruptions to crude oil production exacerbating the economic downturn.”  FOLLOW THIS ARTICLE
