People forget how expensive it is to heat an 'open-concept' living room-kitchen

living room doesnt make much sense

All the rich people live in St Albert

I'm looking to move St. Albert, Alberta, Canada 🇨🇦 as a potential possibly someday in the future. 😊

High taxes and poor services

The snobbiness of the rich and religious is 100% free folks.

Maybe Evan should go to Quebec and sell his views there. Not in Alberta. Lol try Rocky Mountain House for taxes lol

St. Albert is just a more pretentious edmonton

A townhouse is awesome. The only trouble sometimes with that is you need to be aware of condo fees that they can jack up without notice and the HOA which can be a real PITA because some of them are on major power trips but the one advantage of condos and townhouses is low maintenance and if you can’t be bothered with shovelling and yard work/gardening, then those types of homes are perfect.

Evan, as Americans are looking to move to Canada, especially Alberta due to the lower cost of living and housing in comparison to other parts of the country, you many want to talk about want it is like to live there; ie, what is cost of food, gasoline, taxes, medical, etc.

Dear Mr.JBest78, As I live in South Florida, USA, the state crawling with condos! So, you are correct! A future homeowner be informed as to were the monthly/quarterly HOA Dues go! In Florida the law states this requirement. Anyway, I have been viewing your videos, excellent job! If I were to move up to Alberta, Canada, I would definitely use you as my realtor, but, alas, I am stay put in the Sunshine State. Yet, good luck to you. Bob

Property taxes: This big scam.

The sound track was fun.

I’m impressed that you addressed the lack of diversity. As a black male, I didn’t consider that as an issue before moving here from Pittsburgh PA. I learned pretty quickly that a lack of diversity means a lack of a diversity of services. It’s really embarrassing walking into a barbershop to get a haircut and being turned away because the barbers can’t style “that kind of hair.”

Sure if your Heritage Lakes home is up against the Henday you'll hear it. My inlaws live in Heritage Lakes and there is zero noise from the Henday.

Love you mentioned those places!

Amazing 🤩

I love that they still kept some of the character of this older home. It looks well kept by the owner. Not surprised to see that it’s not on the market anymore. It definitely didn’t last long. If you keep your home up well and you even stage it properly then it should sell quickly. Most interested buyers probably prefer it empty because they don’t want to envision what it looks like with your stuff in it or anything else but with THEIR stuff in it.

2% for sturgeon heights... I bet even most people from St Albert don't know that's what the S's are called haha weird bonus, all of our street lights are wooden poles! don't know why, but that's a thing

A very beautiful house

What value are you getting for your taxes? The roads in Edmonton are basically donkey trails.

You should do guided tours like this more often in your videos, nice job!

Wha

These should be called fish bowl homes because they are like living in a fish bowl. No yard, no privacy, an absolute rip off. They are basically selling you apartments for 1/2 million dollars each. I can’t believe that governments are letting builders build homes this close together again. I thought this practice was banned back in the eighties along with cookie cutter neighbourhoods. Too bad Canada wasn’t bigger so we could space the houses further apart.

Very spacious and the layout is not too bad either. A little bit pricey for a townhouse but looks elegant and perfect if you can’t be bothered with huge yard maintenance or snow removal. Just have to be careful with condo fees and if there is a HOA. They can be a real PITA.

I definitely like the layout!👍

Massive urban sprawl

I was looking forward to seeing you post another video. It’s been quite awhile. That condo looks very impressive, especially for 230k. It’s sad that there isn’t much in St.Albert for that price. Possibly grandin village or ridgewood terrace? St.Albert is pretty expensive sadly and I also sadly think St.Albert is for the elite, and I am definitely NOT elite! I work at one of the busier grocery stores in St.Albert and you would be surprised how some people there let me know that I’m not the elite.

High property taxes….but still subsidized by Edmonton tax payers. Vastly more St Albert residents work and use the infrastructure of Edmonton vs the other way around. Love hearing St Albert residents complain about traffic on the roads they don’t pay for and make congested by their choice to have long commutes.

Thanks for the update

I live in Sturgeon, we have nice bungalows, which I prefer, bigger yards and a huge Dutch elm tree canopy over our streets. Plus quick and easy access to amenities and the Henday/Yellowhead.

Bro this guy is high on something ! talking about Edmonton bc is way cheaper is more beautiful Warmer I like the way he is F calculating the prices I’m here 10 years people don’t talk people are so depressed here ! 100k € in Barcelona cheap fresh food in paradise please stop 🛑! Bro enough

How much?

Edmontonian - Was in LA in March, where it costed me $5.29 for a 'single' XL coffee from McDonalds. Just 1

Great video. Knowing the negative side of living in a city is pretty helpful. Thanks!

They would'nt let me finish my comment & I will be surprised if they'll let my comment stand. As it is my meaning is clear enough.

I moved from BC to Alberta. As sopn as my flight landed in Edmonton I was homless for the next 4 yrs. One of the most repressive right-wing gov't on the continent. I made my own joke about things here: Can you name the capital city of Alberta? Edmonton. Wrong. Huston Texas. Province without social services of any kind except for the affuent. Gov't throws people out on sidwalks to live in tents and they suffer the constant harasment by the cops. If you're poor you're d I

Hi Evan. I bumped into your mom the other day at Sobeys. I’m your kindergarten teacher from Neil M Ross. ( Ms. Perra). So wonderful to see you on RUclips. I enjoyed watching your video and congratulations on such an amazing job featuring some of the best neighborhoods in St. Albert. Warm regards to you and your family. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences to help people find their own prefect home to buy.

why are you even producing this negative video about St. Albert, I would not use you as a agent and I live in St. Albert, downvoted. Does Rivervalley know you did this video?

I wouldn’t live in the north end of St Albert if you paid me. Believe it or not Grandin has my vote. Btw the amount of infills being built should tell you something.

What does fully renovated mean it's been updated all repairs have been made no polyb pipes or asbestos new roof? New windows for entire building If not what age is building When you renovate a room or condo the entire condo not building has to be brought up to present day building codes it's law.

You had me at no diversity 😊

st.albert property tax is 5600 a year

Ugh, ugh, ugh

I’m here now visiting family! It’s fabulous!!

Yes you a right, moved from Edmonton to Fort Saskatchewan. Love it here.

Is this available for rent?

Thanks for the video. It's a great overview

Same house will cost you $650k in Calgary. 😅

Racism isn’t just by white people bud. People of all ethnicities can be racist in our woke culture and it’s called sin😉. Only Jesus can set us free from prejudices and have love for our fellow human beings.
