What Is It About Calgary?  |  | | | | |
Calgary offers something for everyone. History, culture, entertainment, sports, opportunity and the great outdoors combine with the friendliness usually found only in a small town, to make a city that people love to call home.
We have quality educational opportunities for both children and adults. Our public school system, Catholic schools and independent schools each offer a unique atmosphere where high achievement is the norm. Post-secondary education is rich in Calgary. You can study at the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology, or take your education to the Bachelor level at Mount Royal University or the University of Calgary.
Looking for something to do? We have a rich history that can be explored at the Heritage Park and the archives at Glenbow Museum. While at the Glenbow, you can also explore the museum, one of the largest in Canada, and the 28,000 works of art in the gallery. Spend a day with the animals at the fabulous Calgary Zoo. Watch the rodeos at the Calgary Stampede or get a rush on a rollercoaster at Calaway Park. When you are ready to participate in some of the best physical recreation Calgary has to offer, head over to the Canada Olympic Park. And don’t forget the wonders of nature that are ever-present in the beautiful Rocky Mountains.
Information on the city of Calgary, tourism and convention bureau, and city assessment are all just a click away. But be sure to come back and let me help you find your next home in the wonderful city of Calgary.

Titles >Do You Really Need Title Insurance
When a home is purchased, title insurance is one of the closing cost items on the closing statement. This insurance protects the buyer from defects in the title that are not discovered until after the closing. There are two kinds of title insurance--coverage that protects the lender for the balance of the mortgage if the buyers have a loan, and coverage that protects the buyers' equity in the property.
It is prudent to purchase owners' coverage because most of the title problems that arise after a closing are not from a sloppy title search, but are the result of inaccurate information in the public records. The ownership chain goes back a long way, and fraud or misrepresentation anywhere in the chain could mean big problems. Title insurance will protect you if a wife or husband did not properly sign off on the ownership papers or if the property was sold as part of an estate that was later disputed. Most people do not have to deal with the title insurance company after the closing, but this coverage could save your investment if a problem arises.
