Finished the new wrap for the Hi-Bar at the Calgary rugby union. Pretty cool to see it come to life!

What do you think?

If you’re headed down to the field this Saturday, make sure to pop by and say hi and check it out.

I’ll be there!

What if this was your weekend?⁠
⁠
Instead of spending another summer fighting traffic to get out of the city, imagine wrapping up work on Friday and being at the lake 45 minutes later.⁠
Imagine mornings that start with coffee overlooking the water, afternoons spent boating, paddleboarding, or fishing, and evenings around a campfire with friends and family while the sun sets over the mountains.⁠
⁠
That's what makes Ghost Lake so special.⁠
⁠
It's close enough to Calgary that you can use it every weekend, but far enough away that it feels like you've actually escaped.⁠
⁠
For a lot of people, owning a cabin isn't really about the cabin at all. It's about having a place where everyone gathers. It's about the weekends your kids remember, the friends who always seem to show up, and the memories that happen when life slows down for a little while.⁠
⁠
I've got an incredible property coming soon in Ghost Lake that offers exactly that lifestyle.⁠
⁠
If you've ever caught yourself saying, "One day I'd love a place at the lake," here's your sign my friend.⁠
⁠
Message me and I'll make sure you're the first to receive photos, pricing, and all the details before it hits the market.⁠

Calgary's got a full weekend. Here's what I'd do with it.⁠
⁠
If you've got kids — take them to the 4th Street Lilac Festival on Sunday. June 7, 10am to 6pm, 4th Street SW. Free admission. 500+ vendors, 6 live stages, 70+ performances. The whole street shuts down. It's loud, it's busy, and kids absolutely love it. We're talking face paint, bouncy castles, live music every direction you turn. This is how summer starts in Calgary. 35 years running for a reason.⁠
⁠
If you're looking for a date night — go to the same street on Sunday afternoon and just pick a patio. The 4th Street patios on Lilac Festival day are something else. All open, all buzzing, festival energy spilling in from the street. Grab a drink, watch the city go by, stay longer than you planned. No tickets. No reservation.⁠
⁠
If you're like me and love live sporting events — Cavalry FC hosts Halifax Wanderers at Spruce Meadows on Saturday at 5pm. Both teams are sitting dead level on points in the CPL standings. This isn't a throwaway match. If you've never been to a Cavalry game at Spruce Meadows, the setting alone is worth the trip. Good football, good crowd, and something genuinely on the line.⁠
⁠
⁠
What are you and yours getting up to this weekend? Drop it in the comments ...I always like knowing what people are doing around the city.⁠

I sold my house in 24 hours.... kind of

Here’s the not so highlight reel...

A month ago, a Realtor was parked out front of my house after his buyers had just looked at the house next door. They weren’t interested in that house, so I offered them mine.

I wasn’t planning on selling right then. But I had been thinking about it.

I spent the rest of the night running around like crazy trying to make the place look presentable.

They came the next day and loved it. We put a deal together.

Then it fell apart.

They needed to sell their place first and the timing just didn’t work out.

At first, it was disappointing.

But looking back, it was probably the best thing that could have happened.
It forced me to finally do all the stuff I’d been putting off.

The water heater, a few repairs, touch-up paint, staging.

All the little things you know need to get done but somehow keep getting pushed to “next weekend.”

Then, because real estate likes to keep you humble, a woodpecker put a hole in the side of my house the day before the inspection.
Seriously.

I had literally just repaired holes from the same damn bird.

So I said a few choice words my kids shouldn’t hear, fixed it again and kept moving.

A few weeks later I officially listed the house.

And here’s where it got interesting! The original buyers came back. Their house had sold.

And less than 24 hours later, mine was conditionally sold.

Last Saturday it went firm.

The funny thing is those buyers loved the house before I fixed a single thing.

But when it came time to write the offer, go through the inspection, and move forward confidently, all those details mattered. That’s something I talk to sellers about all the time.

Getting your house ready isn’t about perfection, it’s about removing reasons for buyers to hesitate.

As for the house itself...
It’s a little strange knowing it’s no longer mine.
This place has been a big part of my life.
The rooftop patio.
Watching the Stampede fireworks.
Friends over on summer nights.
A lot of good memories were made here.

But the great thing about change is the opportunity to always make our future better than our past.

Cheers to the nex

4 things I wish someone told me before I bought my first home.⁠
After 25+ years and 1,200+ Calgary homes closed, I've watched almost every first-time buyer go through the same emotional rollercoaster. Here's what nobody warns you about.⁠
⁠
1. Save 3–5% on top of your down payment for closing costs.⁠
Legal fees, land transfer, insurance adjustments, moving costs. They add up fast. The buyers who get blindsided are the ones who put every dollar into the down payment.⁠
⁠
2. Your first home is not your forever home.⁠
⁠
And that's okay. It's a stepping stone. Stop trying to make it tick every single box. Most people move within 5–7 years anyway.⁠
⁠
3. It won't be perfect.⁠
⁠
There is no perfect house. There's the right house, at the right price, in the right neighbourhood, at the right time. Chasing perfect is how buyers lose out on great.⁠
⁠
4. You will second-guess your decision for the first 3 weeks.⁠
Every buyer does. The doubt is normal. It usually disappears the first time you walk through the front door and realize it's yours.⁠
—⁠
Buying your first home in Calgary isn't about luck. It's about going in with the right plan and the right person in your corner.⁠
⁠
When it's time to move, I play to win. DM me "GAME PLAN" and let's win this one together.⁠
⁠

Well at least one of these guys looks happy about how the game went this weekend!

Most sellers think staging means hiring a company and dropping $5,000. ⁠
⁠
It doesn't.⁠
⁠
After 25+ years and 1,200+ Calgary homes sold, I can tell you the difference between a home that sits and a home that gets multiple offers usually comes down to small details. Not big renovations or a ton of fancy couch cushions.⁠
⁠
When it's time to sell, I play to win. That doesn't mean spending more. It means spending smart.⁠
⁠
DM me "GAME PLAN" and let's get your home ready to sell - without the $20,000 renovation.⁠
