Karen Guy, REALTOR® ~ My mother was right!

and yours was too! ~ did your mother ever tell you to never leave the house without your "face" on, and clean underwear??  LOL.  Well, today as my son woke me up to drive him to work at 6.30 am I  might add (yuck) I literally got out of bed and grabbed the car keys and left the house.  Not even a quick check in the mirror!

Little did we expect to come across two motorcyclists at the bottom of Westside road, obviously one of them had taken a good bail.  He had slipped on some gravel and laid the bike down.  It must have just happened.  We drove by slowly and asked if they needed help but they said they were ok.

On my way back down the hill from taking Dylan to his ride for work, I stopped and asked if I could do anything at all (I had a first aid kit in my car) and if the one guy wanted to sit down. So, here's me still in my PJ's - no make-up, no hair done... trying to figure out how to help these guys. 

I didn't even have a bottle of water to offer him (yea I know what your thinking....I ALWAYS have water)  I felt so bad.  The guy was hurt, but nothing life threatening and the fire truck was just coming as I pulled away.

I sure you are ok buddy! 

That's my excitement for a Saturday.  I won't be leaving the house again with my PJ's on that's for sure.

Karen Guy, REALTOR® ~ TD Special Report: Moderation In Store For The Canadian Housing Market

Highlights from the report!

•    Relative to where they sat in 2011 Q1, national resale activity and average prices are projected to decline by 15.2% and 10.2% respectively over the next two years.
 
•    Restrained economic growth, higher interest rates, new mortgage borrowing rules and eroding home affordability help support our call for more moderate housing activity.
 
•    Fewer new home buyers and reduced investor appetite should also simmer new and resale condo activity.
 
•    In addition to our national perspective, we provide an in-depth overview of twelve major markets within this paper.
 
•    Over 2011-13, Calgary, Edmonton and Regina housing markets are set to lead the way.  Still, the term “leader” is relative as no market is slated to experience a boom over our forecast.  We simply have these regions doing better than the rest.
 
•    Given their recent run-up in activity, new condo supply and only subdued economic growth forecast, Toronto and Vancouver are expected to see a larger-than-average correction in both sales and prices relative to other regions.
