For example, &lt;a href=http://www.jimsparrow.com/blog/calgary-real-estate-to-see-modest-2010-growth.html&gt;realty in Calgary&lt;/a&gt; is expected to increase by 6.3% in price and 17.7% in sales. While this isn't the fastest growth we have seen, it signals that markets are starting to grow, and that we might see a stronger recovery later on. From what you are saying, it looks like there is a chance markets in your area might do the same. </p> It looks like things are starting to recover throughout the continent.

It's amazing what happens when you start filing liens and garnishing wages!  We also had pretty good luck getting the banks to pay on units they were holding.  Threatening to file a lien against the unit also gets the bank's attention.
