Selena’s Summer Newsletter

Happy Summer!

This summer we been having many hot sunny days with evening thunder clouds rolling in giving lots of rain to Edmonton which helps to keep the city really green. The lightning did cause a few small grass fires to the west, but fortunately these were quickly handled, so its no comparison to the fires in BC. With such beautiful weather, its perfect for kids to play outside while its warm and sunny and enjoy a picnic or family BBQ and of course the evening rain keeps our back yard really green too! Fionna enjoys gardening. I am not sure if she gets more excited when a new flower comes out, or because she can eat the the fruit and vegies when they are ripe.

Settled In

Andy and I been so busy since we joined Coldwell Banker (CB) Venture Realty last month. Even just one month, so many good things happening. Construction has finished and the brokerage has just moved into their brand new building. Along with a trendy design on the outside, the inside’s packed with the latest technology to help agents and clients to buy and sell Real Estate. This shows how the owners of Coldwell Banker have big vision and want to help their agents. Even we are still very much in a Buyer’s market, summer is a busy season for Real Estate. As example, I listed a house on Friday night, and sold within 24 hours with multiple offers showing that using all the tools at our fingertips is crucial to marketing a home to sell fast.

Exclusive Project

More good news. We are getting Asian exclusive rights to promote the Brand New Condo project in the prestigious Ice District. Because I speak fluent Mandarin and Cantonese, Coldwell Banker allows me to be in charge of this project called Jasper House located in the heart of the downtown Edmonton. Right now is pre-VIP stage which is offering discounted prices. With condos starting at $270,000 you can get discounts of $20,000 and even up to $52,000 depending on if you are buying one, two or three bedroom. Ready in 2020, you can buy at today’s price and if you consider to rent out, the builder also provide 2 years property management for FREE. That certainly makes it an attractive investment for smart investors so contact us if you would like more details.

Summer Camp

Our little Fionna is almost 4 ½ years old and she is full of energy! I signed her up for several different summer camps including art, dance, music and ice-skating to name a few. She is having lot of fun, and learning a lot from different teachers. Even she is only 4 years old, she is already very focused on dancing and ballet in particular. She loves wearing her ballet slippers and walking around on tippie toes and practising grand jeté and her favourite movie is Ballerina(2107). Like every mother, you want your child to be happy and encourage them to do what they love. I’m so grateful being able to give her these opportunities and just spend time with her in these formative years.
