July 2017 Real Estate Ezine

I hope you enjoyed the Canada long weekend and the various festivities to celebrate our country’s 150th birthday. We should be proud and fortunate to live in this great country that has provided us with the rights, freedoms and opportunities that we enjoy and appreciate dearly. I stayed in Ottawa to celebrate Canada Day with friends whom I haven’t seen for a while as we catched up and talked about what is currently happening in our personal and professional lives. It was a great time talking with them about current issues and past memories. 

On the real estate front, I was fortunate enough to have the great opportunity to be invited to participate in my first-ever, exclusive live radio interview with Nikki Clarke of the Nikki Clarke Radio Talk Show where we discussed about my experience in real estate, the mistakes people make in buying a home and the latest trends in the Ottawa real estate market. Here is the link to listen to the full interview: Interview With Michael Arthur On The Nikki Clarke Radio Show. I welcome and appreciate your feedback about the interview.

On a personal note, I proposed to my girlfriend, Anita, and yes, she was shocked and relieved that I performed the “duty” to her joy and satisfaction. Both of our families are excited and are looking forward to seeing us tie the knot. Myself and Anita are planning to get married sometime this Fall. Wedding planning is well underway which, at times, is not a fun, positive experience you need to make sure that all the major and even the minor details are covered to make the wedding day successful.

Happy reading!!!

Why Invest In Real Estate?
        If you are like most people, the idea of riding the stock market ‘roller coaster’ makes you feel a little queasy.  The highs can be a lot of fun, but the lows really give you a kickin’ (and there seem to be a lot more lows than highs for most investors).

         While real estate also follows a cycle, it tends to be a much more gradual one.  Investing in revenue properties offers us limited immunity from fluctuation. 

         This means that you don’t tend to see the massive ups and downs of the stock and commodity markets.  It’s a much gentler ride, and tends to provide very solid returns on investment over the long run.  This is another reason I prefer real estate investing over other kinds of investments.
