Winston Heights - Mountainview Community in Calgary | PRG Properties YYC | Episode 022 |

Saturday Jun 05, 2021

Winston Heights-Mountview is a low-density residential community located along the west escarpment of the Nose Creek Valley. Winston Heights-Mountview has good access to the downtown, via Edmonton Trail. Most of this area was built in the 1950s around an existing core of older war-time homes. Winston Heights-Mountview residents enjoy close proximity to Nose Creek Park, The Winston Golf Club and the pathway system.

There is a lot of urban renewal in the area with a mixture of housing. There is also a beautiful community garden - this is from their website: Each of our gardeners rents one of our 4 x 8-foot organic beds in which they can grow and tend their choice of edible vegetables and flowers. We are a chemical-free garden so the beds have only ever been fertilized with natural products and compost. We also have a few smaller, more accessible beds for folks with physical limitations. Our garden is always open to visitors and we encourage everyone to come and see its many unique features. We have a large Saskatoon patch, fruit trees, and a Little Free Library. There are seating areas, an accessible pathway and bee and butterfly houses to attract pollinators.

While the produce grown in the individual beds belongs to the gardener who planted and tended to it, we do have assigned tasting and sharing beds where our guests can try whatever is in season. And guests are always welcome to harvest some of our gargantuan rhubarb or snip some herbs from the herb spiral. The tarragon does tend to take off if it’s not clipped often. Some of our flowering plants in the garden were transplanted from Midfield Mobile Home Park before it closed, so we also have a living connection to our neighbourhood history.

The Indigenous medicinal bed also connects us to our prairie roots. As you can imagine, it takes a village to maintain our garden. Each of our gardeners makes a commitment of 6 hours of service when they register to rent their bed. Throughout the summer, we work in teams to keep the perimeter plantings and structures looking their best. We also have several community members who don’t rent beds, but who like to get their hands dirty. The time and enthusiasm that they contribute to the garden is invaluable to us. We call them Friends of the Garden. Anyone can join this group of volunteers simply by sending us an email.

There is a new development coming soon to the area by the City of Calgary too! Tune in for more info.

Downsizing is Never an Easy task, where to begin? We have the Expertise to help you make the Move!

Saturday May 15, 2021

A real estate agent will guide you through the process of buying a house, which is likely to be the most expensive financial transaction you will ever make. You want to work with someone who has the right knowledge and experience to suit your needs.

If you’re interested in downsizing, you will have needs that are different than those of buyers looking for a home for a growing family. You may want to work with an agent who has represented other buyers who wanted to downsize. An agent with that experience may be able to help you figure out what is truly important to you and provide useful insights based on the experiences of other clients who have downsized.

Interview at least a few real estate agents before you make a decision. Speaking with agents one-on-one will give you an opportunity to explain your goals, preferences and budget and to learn more about each individual’s approach and personality. Request references from recent customers and contact them to inquire about their experiences and opinions. That will help you figure out which agent will be the best match for you.

Calgary Market update & the Impact of Covid19, Calgary Living with PRG Properties

Saturday May 08, 2021

The birds are singing and spring is in the air! The spring season in the housing market started earlier than expected this year, mainly due to the ups and downs that the Covid-19 virus and it's impact on all our lives.

When you hear that the market is 'booming' and the sales are up x% over last year at this time, remember that last year at this time we were barley allowed to leave our house, let along buy one. Keep this in mind before you get swept up with thinking there is a housing shortage. It's not that simple.
