Bright Kitchen with East Windows

4912 45 St SW, Glamorgan – Less than 1 km from Mount Royal University. 1960’s Bungalow offers hardwood floors, updated kitchen and appliances.  New Windows throughout. 4th bedroom downstairs with rumpus room. Parking for 2 cars in back – a garage could easily be built.  Last tenant did a rediculous job of removing the front door step and installing the front door. (He was less bad at installing the back door.) Priced as a handiman special! Seller fed up with this generation of people who don’t do what they say they will dolike pay rent.  Offered at $339,900.
Call or text me to view – it’s vacant and ready for a good property manager like you who capitalizes on it’s proximity to great transportation and Mount Royal University! (… and did I mention … the nearby Grey Eagle Casino?)  😉  For More Pics click here!

Google Analytics … Customer Service … and Search Engine Optimization

Google Analytics In Real Life – Online Checkout On Wednesday I attended the Calgary Real Estate Board Annual Forecast Breakfast. It’s a terrific annual event which brings out all the professional realtors for a day of interacting and learning.
I always pick up some great info at this event … and this year I will work a bit harder at understanding Search Engine Optimization. Apparently we should be using Google Analytics to assist us in this.

… I was just doing some searching … and found this hilarious video … on the customer experience.

The Love of The Deal – $12 Hair cut

Realtor Bryon Howard Loves a Deal

Recently a friend (who also loves ‘the deal’) told me about Right In Hair Styling, on Edmonton Trail and 6th Ave in Bridgeland, Calgary, Alberta. Yesterday I was in the area and met Patrick who has owned the building and has been cutting hair on Edmonton Trail and 6th Ave in Bridgeland, NE Calgary for 22 years.

My friend who got a cut at Right In Hair Styling last week learned he was born in The Year of The Ox. Did you know that it not only matters what your birth year symbol is … but weather you were born in the spring, summer, fall or winter? Also … the time of day?

Owner Patrick and I also had a fun conversation … mostly focused around real estate.
He translated my name to Chinese … and was rewarded with a $3 tip.

A hair cut, a great conversation … and my name translated in Chinese … all for $15. I love a deal. 🙂
