Condos in Calgary

For my brother: Tom sent me some forum threads you might find interesting if you're looking at a condo in Downtown Calgary

• This discussion thread started about 2 years ago when a lot of what's currently under construction was just being proposed. The guys on here definitely have a "anti suburb/ pro housing for the masses" attitude, but its an interesting read none the less.
• People hating Pointe of View: Sinking downtown condos, More hate
• Finally, check out this blog on the Vancouver housing market. There's some good theory buried in there on true real-estate worth. Maybe it could save you $100k in depreciation some day
. For further research you can look into the volumes of information on the US housing bubble.
