Typically, unless you get lucky and buy a home in a speculative market and are able to sell when it is high, vs low. Over the entire province I live in, the average is a 4% increase in value a year, but

How is the weather where you are? We finally got some snow that is going to stick around for a bit. Its the latest in the year getting it in my recent memory.

I was around at the start, but like everything in my life, it comes in spurts. Like is settling down so I am going to try to be a bit more active.
