I go to this every year and it is 100% worth it. The price this year appears to have tripled which is a real shame, but it's every Edmonton construction/development leader in a room.

I would love to go since I’m a student, but have two classes on Thursday’s and would have take time off from work.

I’m approving time off for you if that means anything to your employer

Edit: just tell him I’m an active member

I am a bit surprised by how Montreal and Quebec continues to do well. I feel we are in a bit of a Goldilocks zone for price increases now, good for sellers but not too uncomfortable for buyers.

Calgary as often is the case overheats and then pulls back some. We seem to be a more steady, stable market.

I think they started recognizing active members of Skyrise in 2021. I can put it on Skyrise letterhead if that's helpful.

In Montreal, I think it's partly cultural. (Not so much in Quebec, which has always been more owner-dominated.) Central-ish Montreal neighborhoods are much more desirable to people with money than they were 30 years ago. Neighborhoods that have generally been very renter-dominated are seeing more and more ownership and conversions from duplexes and triplexes to single-family houses—to the point that the Plateau has banned those conversions to protect the rental housing stock. So there's been a bit of a rush to buy and a steady increase in prices, even as the city population hasn't grown that much.
