Congratulations
Before we get to ALL the details in the newsletter, January 2006 is the launch of REIN™'s 14th year of helping real estate investors create their Personal Belizes. We wanted to offer a big CONGRATULATIONS to the members of the Real Estate Investment Network who purchased over 3,085 properties last year. That works out to every member on average purchasing almost 3 properties each.
To put this into perspective the number of REIN™ member’s properties now stands over 13,274 and is valued in excess of 1.37 BILLION Dollars… If you would like to learn the proven step-by-step system that the REIN™ members use to purchase all these properties your next opportunity is coming right around the corner for the first time ever in OTTAWA (Feb. 17 – 19).

#1. Alberta Oil Sands on “60 Minutes”
The news for the long term outlook of the Alberta Real Estate market continues to get better – the world is definitely watching. Businesses continue to focus their job growth and relocation to Alberta, average incomes are increasing and now the world is opening their eyes to what’s happening.
The January 22, 2006 edition of “60 Minutes”, on CBS, presented a long and detailed look at Alberta with a focus on the potential of the oil sands. Although they have only posted a short clip on their web-site, I highly recommend you find a copy of the full show, and use it in your presentation package to attract Joint Venture money. Here’s the link to the short clip: pay special attention to what the head of Shell has to say about the potential resource Canada is sitting on. Here’s the link:

If you’re looking for more Oil sands detail from an outside source check out this article from earlier 2005: http://www.greenwire.com/gsr_tarsands.htm
We are seeing increased coverage of Alberta around the world with Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Australian, British newspapers all carrying special reports on Canada’s future power in the world economy, with a focus on the Safe & Secure barrels from Alberta.
#2. Focus on Economic Fundamentals… not Hype
Economic fundamentals are critical for real estate investors with a long term outlook so please ensure you are staying on top of them and watching for shifts. A great way, of course, is to become a REIN™ Member as each and every month, on top of bringing proven investment strategies; we also analyze the economics behind the Real Estate market. If you are truly committed to doing something positive in real estate (instead of just dreaming and hoping) we’d love to help you achieve it as a Member of REIN™. 2006 promises to be the best of times for some investors and not so good for others – we’ll help you ensure you’re in the ‘best of times’ category with no-hype, no-baloney Canadian specific research and strategies.

The next REIN™ Workshop is all about structuring and attracting Joint Venture capital, an evening not to be missed.
#3. Retail Sales
One economic fundamental we like to keep a sharp eye on is the growth of retails sales in a region. Why? Simply put, the more comfortable people are with their jobs and take-home pay, the more they feel comfortable spending their cash in retail. It is like a barometer of future Real Estate prices. As described in the book “Real Estate Investing in Canada”, the higher the net income, the faster Real Estate prices move upwards. Here are the latest increases in retail sales from November 2004 to Nov 2005 (source Statistics Canada):
Ontario: +4.4%
Quebec: +3.6%
Alberta: +12.0%
BC: +6.9%
Make sure you read Real Estate Investing in Canada, so you can see just how important these new numbers are. http://www.amazon.ca/realestate
