It’s advisable to take a trip to the neighborhood you’re considering buying in for the express purpose of looking at properties and the community. If you can’t visit, seek out a competent professional to find the type of property you want for a fair price. You may wish to retain an attorney in addition to hiring a real estate agent, so that your property purchase is problem-free.
An important part of buying property here is knowing local real estate laws. You should have a good working knowledge of these laws, but if you don’t, then it’s advisable to retain some kind of legal counsel experienced in these matters as well as a real estate professional who can help you find the best property for your needs.

I highly recommend John, he has helped our family sell a home in Calgary during a tough market for top dollar, and he helped us find our dream acreage. We literally couldn’t have done it without him.

I would like to thank all of you guys for the sale of my property in Bearspaw, especially Karen Keveryga, my listing agent. She has certainly went above and beyond the normal standards of service I have received from my previous realtors from other real estate companies. Yes, my home was for sale a couple times before in years past but Karen and her team got the job done. And now Karen has also helped me in a huge way to find my next property. So again, thank you Karen for all your help. I am grateful for all you've done for us.

Norm and Joanne
Karen Keveryga guided us through the excitement and challenges of buying our first home and we are so happy to have her on our side. She put in many hours and much effort to find a home that's perfectly suited for us, and 2 years later we are still thrilled with our purchase and truly feel at home. She made sure we were comfortable throughout the entire process and was there for all of the questions (and there were many) we had about buying our first home. We would recommend Karen to anyone looking to buy a home and are already looking forward to working with her again when the time comes!"
