| Wednesday, February 10, 2010 just hours from the opening...by Ari Lahdekorpi on Wed, Feb, 10, 2010 05:20 PM As the hours count down to the start of the 2010 Olympics it seems that real estate activity is stepping up dramatically in our office here at RE/MAX Select Properties. I was just speaking with our conveyancing department, they tell me that the number of deals this week have more than doubled from the previous weeks. One of the agents just showed me a 4.8 million dollar listing that they processed this morning...so activity remains strong here on the West Side of Vancouver.
The Olympic flame will be passing through my neighbourhood on Thursday morning, but I will be on a plane to the RE/MAX Western Conference in Edmonton. Word is that the airport will be much busier than usual in Vancouver. The airport authority is claiming that March 1st will be the busiest day in the airport history.
The excitement is building now in the city for the games. It seems that even the most cynical are beginning to warm up to the notion that they are part of something very special. |
