Love as a Legacy
My husband, Richard, and I went to see Rocketman this afternoon, the Elton John biopic. It’s actually described as “an epic musical fantasy about the uncensored human story of Sir Elton John’s breakthrough years.” It’s pretty epic, and it’s a musical in parts (which normally I can’t stand — yes, I know, you may unfriend […]
Home Buyers on the West Island Have More Choice Now
Last year, the story of the West Island real estate market was the slim pickings available for home buyers. Virtually all over the West Island, there was so little for sale in 2018 compared to 2017 that it drove home prices up fairly substantially.

Pointe-Claire QC Real Estate Market Update: 2018 is Fast and Furious
Yesterday, I posted an article about the Kirkland real estate market here in Montreal’s West Island. Today, I’m taking a look at Pointe-Claire, and the results are pretty similar: there’s not much to choose from and, when there is something to look at, it’s sold before you know it. This real estate market is not […]
