Eventually people will pull their head out of their back end and realize houses around Edmonton aren't worth more than about 150k because E-Town bites!!  Seriously the market here is starting to saturate as people are realizing their houses are worth crazy money and new places are coming up every week, and they're not selling as fast as they once were. Plus after about June things really slow down as buyers and realtors are all on hollidays and things tend to move really slow. |
It takes a while ... at least a week as I recall, maybe longer. You'd have to check with someone that applies Roundup to get a definite answer. It sounds like it might take longer than you want to allot to get things done.
I've been wondering about the strength of the whole real estate market in Alberta. It's the same here in Drumheller ... people are still listing for top dollar, but they're not getting buyers. Maybe the insane prices are going to start dropping back ... I hope so. I don't plan on moving so a return to reasonable market values would help reduce the insanely high property taxes this real estate boom has brought about.
