As the summer makes way for the fall

Over the past summer there have been some changes at Lake McGregor Country Estates. There have been a few cottage sales, and an RV lot or two. Yes, the market is still slow. When I say that, I mean the recreational property market. I know that there are some people who may object to that opinion, and that it is just the market at this resort that is hurting, but here are the facts - last month in the publication of the Calgary Real Estate News, the recreation property section was one page. One. The recreational property section in the edition run before that (I cannot recall off hand how many months ago that was), Magnuson Realty Ltd. ran an ad in it, and we were the only ones in the recreational property section. I have access to sales in the area and I can show anyone exactly how many, or perhaps how few would be a better term, sales have taken place at not only Lake McGregor Country Estates, but also Little Bow Resort, and other recreational areas in our county. One thing that I am excited to see at our resort is a change in attitude. The community association is having a special meeting tomorrow to elect representatives to the board, and a representative for the developer will be present. This is looking to be a much more professional association, bringing a much more positive outlook to Lake McGregor Country Estates. I feel that this is going to help uplift the community there, and perhaps this will bring more interest to our resort, and to those who already own there, give them a greater sense of pride!
