One thing you hear a lot from families who live in the middle of Edmonton is “I wish we could see the stars at night.” Unfortunately, in a lot of neighbourhoods in any city, the bright lights make it impossible to see the stars. But, that isn’t true of every Edmonton neighbourhood.
We’ve been talking a lot lately about real estate in Edmonton and it’s nearby cities Leduc and Fort Saskatchewan. But one we haven’t mentioned that’s near Edmonton and also currently offers great real estate opportunities is Morinville. Actually, Morinville is a town, not a city, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t an excellent location to buy a home and raise a family.
If you’re in the market to buy a house in Edmonton, all the possible communities to buy in probably overwhelm you. Maybe you have a section of the city in mind, like North or West, but there are a lot of different communities in each of those sections and they all have something different to offer homebuyers. So how do you know which one is right for you?
Located just 25 km northeast of Edmonton, Fort Saskatchewan is a growing city with a bright future. Because it is part of Alberta’s Industrial Heartland, the city has a lot of ongoing and upcoming projects that will continue to bring countless jobs to the area and growth to the economy. The outlook for this once “little industrial town” and the people who live there, is great.
Many people who are thinking about purchasing a home in Edmonton also consider some of Edmonton’s surrounding cities, towns, and neighbourhoods. A city that is growing in popularity, and in the real estate market, is Leduc.
There’s an element of risk involved in every major purchase, and that includes buying a house. Some people enjoy, or make their living off of, taking risks on fixer-upper homes. However, when you’re purchasing your first home, the one you and your family are going be living in, chances are you want to minimize your risk as much as possible. But just how do you do this?
One of the most important choices you make when buying a home is which neighbourhood or community you buy in. Your neighbourhood can make or break your enjoyment of, and even your ability to live in, your new home. That’s why choosing the right community is vital to making sure your home purchase is a success.
