Why Red Deer houses come to us

Red Deer is the big market halfway to Edmonton, and its boom rings show it — whole neighbourhoods of seventies and eighties housing now past forty, plus the older streets around downtown and the river. One visit up the QE II from us; by video call if you are managing it from somewhere else.

Our office to Red Deer: about an hour and 25 minutes, up the QE II. We come to the house once, in person.

We also buy in Calgary and across southern and central Alberta. If yours is somewhere between two towns, call anyway.

Red Deer questions

Asked by Red Deer sellers

Do you actually buy houses in Red Deer, or only in Calgary?

We buy in Red Deer — it's about an hour and 25 minutes from our Calgary office, inside the range we drive. We come to the house once, in person, the same as we do in Calgary.

How fast can you close on a Red Deer house?

The same as anywhere we buy: as little as five to seven days on a clean title, two to three weeks more usually. You pick the date, and the offer is firm — no conditions, and the deposit is at your lawyer's office the next business day.

You're Calgary-based. Do you really come up to Red Deer?

Yes — it is one drive up the QE II, and the rest happens on paper and through the lawyers, the same as any Calgary purchase. The deposit still lands at your lawyer’s office the next business day.
