Three streets. Not a farm.

You get here after the math, not before it.

Timberlea

New build energy. Families who want the school walk and a double garage.

Start here if you want inventory and a driveway that fits a truck.

Thickwood

Established and central. Real garages, schools for every age, and the Birchwood Trails next door.

Price it like a sale. Solds are under list.

Eagle Ridge

Thinner supply. Hold the line if the house earns it.

Do not dump a good one because you are in a hurry.

The person, not the farm

You are not from here. That is fine.

Site C, oilsands, a two year contract. You need a door and a school catchment, not a tour of downtown.

Send the start date. We pick three streets that fit, not thirty listings.
