It was a great evening and gave guests the opportunity to learn about the best places to invest in Canada . Here is a short recap of our evening:

Tips

Housing market statistics are 24 months behind. Don’t base your investment decisions from the statistics or you will be getting in too late. Focus on economics and fundamentals!

The next 10 years (2011 to 2020) will be Canada’s Decade in economics, housing markets and population growth. IMF has recently boosted its 2011 GDP outlook for Canada and Canada is expected to be one of the best economies among industrialized countries.

Reasons Why Canada is Expected to be One of the Best Economies

Canada has the fundamental 4 F’s – Food, Fertilization, Fuel, Forestry

  • Food – with Canada being a top food producer and global food prices increasing, we are set to service a growing market.
  • Fertilization – a key component for good harvest in food, and Canada has a large reserve of potassium which is one of the three primary macronutrients of fertilizer besides nitrogen and phosphorus.
  • Fuel – the growing instability in the Middle East has turned many top oil consumers like the states to look into alternatives – the world’s #2 reserve in the world: Canada!
  • Forestry – growing demand from Japan and China for their building demand will benefit Canadian forestry along with the forecasted recovery of the U.S. residential construction industry in 2014.

To be a smart real estate investor, you need to find the best city or cities to invest in by looking at the fundamentals. Don Campbell is currently focused in Alberta because there is where growth is happening.

Don Campbell’s research team has come up with a list of the top Canadian investment cities

  1. *Calgary, AB
  2. *Edmonton, AB
  3. Hamilton, ON
  4. Surrey, BC
  5. Maple Ridge, BC

Calgary and Edmonton’s in-migration pace continue to lead the nation. Affordability and nearness to job centers provide investors with a growing market, an increasing population that will help propel the markets over the coming years.

Oil sands jobs in Alberta are expected to be doubled over the next 6 years and that does not include the jobs in other industries that will be created by the increase in oil sands jobs.

To summarize, Alberta has the economic fundamentals for a strong growth in the real estate market in the coming years and that’s the place in Canada where smart investors should put their money now. At Everest, we are proud to bring investors different opportunities to participate in this golden opportunity! Book an appointment with an investment specialist today for further details!
