Well my trip to Edmonton was very positive for a number of different reasons, but one of which is VERY interesting.
I stopped into West Edmonton Mall after a meeting to grab a bite. As I walked down Bourbon Street, feeling like I was back in Vegas, I decided to park myself at a table in Hudson's. Now this is not my first time at Hudson's, but it was at this location, and it's beautiful! Lot's of TV's, a warm inviting atmosphere and very friendly service proved that I made the right choice. I looked...

Well.. needless to say it was another rockin evening in Calgary's Pumphill district, as the 11th Annual Red Meat Party surged into the night. Countless friends, colleagues and client's of Kahane Law enjoyed the Studio 54 themed festivities with bell bottom jeans, Afro's of every color and description and the best collection of platform shoes I have seen since watching re-runs of Starsky and Hutch.
The food was once again indescribable, as every type of red meat you can think of was BBQ'd, smoked and...

Here is a new listing that I am happy to post in Calgary.
An excellent opportunity to acquire a locally focused sporting goods business built around affordability, community connection and practical service for families, athletes and recreational sports users. The business offers a strong mix of new and quality used sporting goods, supported by a simple buy, sell and trade model that gives customers a convenient way to turn unused equipment into cash, store credit or upgraded gear.
This concept is well suited to today’s market, where many families are looking for value, sustainability and access to quality equipment without paying full retail pricing. The business serves a broad customer base including parents, young athletes, adult recreational players, teams and individuals looking for affordable equipment across a range of sports and seasons.
In addition to retail sales, the business benefits from value added services that help bring customers back into the store, including equipment related repairs and service offerings. These additional services create another reason for customers to visit, build trust and support repeat business beyond a one time purchase.
The business also has an established online presence, including an ecommerce style product catalogue and community focused content that supports visibility, customer engagement and future growth. A new owner could continue operating the current model or look to expand inventory categories, team partnerships, online sales, local marketing, equipment service programs and community relationships.
This is a practical and approachable business opportunity for an owner operator, family buyer or entrepreneur looking for a retail business with community appeal, multiple revenue streams and room for further growth.
Business name, financial information and exact location will only be released to qualified buyers after a signed confidentiality agreement. 
Here is a new listing that I am happy to post in Calgary.
A great opportunity to acquire an established Calgary plumbing, heating, cooling and HVAC business, along with the commercial property it operates from. Opportunities like this don't come up often, especially when you can purchase both the operating business and the real estate together. Whether you're an owner-operator, an existing contractor looking to grow, or a strategic buyer wanting a foothold in the Calgary market, this business offers a solid foundation to build on.
The company serves both residential and commercial customers and provides a wide range of services, including plumbing repairs and installations, heating and furnace service, air conditioning work, water heaters, drain and sewer services, system upgrades, and other related mechanical work. Over the years, it has built an established customer base, experienced team, proven systems, supplier relationships, equipment, vehicles, and the infrastructure needed to continue operating and growing.
Included in the sale is the Calgary commercial property that serves as the company's home base. The building supports day-to-day operations with space for administration, dispatch, storage, vehicles, tools, inventory, and future expansion. Owning the real estate adds another layer of value, giving a buyer stability, flexibility, and the ability to benefit from both the operating business and the underlying property.
This is a confidential sale, and detailed information will be provided only to qualified buyers who have signed a confidentiality agreement. Additional information, including financials, property details, equipment lists, operational information, and due diligence materials, will be made available during the review process.
This opportunity could be a great fit for an existing plumbing, HVAC, or mechanical contractor looking to expand in Calgary, an entrepreneur seeking a turnkey trades business with real estate included, or an investor interested in acquiring an established operating company backed by commercial property. 
Here is a new listing that I am happy to post in 75 White AVENUE in Bragg Creek.
This is a multifaceted listing of a rare commercial property in Bragg Creek, Alberta. There is a fully functioning, high quality restaurant operation with an impeccable reputation ready for new ownership, as well as the potential down the road to redevelop the site with a larger commercial use such as a boutique hotel. The long term potential of this property is excellent, as it sits very close to the approved Gateway Village Development, a 12.6 acre master-planned mixed use resort style project.
This beautiful hamlet has long been an escape for people to enjoy a weekend away from the city, a place to enjoy the outdoors and great food. The local area is known for its hiking, biking, camping, horseback riding and its quaint shops and restaurants. The tourism business has always been extremely vibrant in the area and it growing every year, with more and more people making the trip to Bragg Creek. The Bavarian Inn Restaurant in Bragg Creek is For Sale, located a short drive from the world famous Kananaskis Country recreational area and up against the foothills of the Canadian Rockies, it is a legendary staple in the Southern Alberta dining scene.
Since the 1970’s the BAV TAV, also known as the Bavarian Inn Restaurant has been renowned for its service and consistent quality dining experience. The owners have continually maintained a solid reputation as a place you go for a casual dinner with the family or to book a party and celebrate a special occasion.
The building and property are a gem and very well maintained, featuring a 3000sqft(+/-) purpose built restaurant with a dining room and a separate freshly renovated lounge/bar area. The wonderful wrap around patio serves both the dining room and the lounge. The kitchen is well laid out with lots of prep area and the equipment is in excellent repair, with a large walk-in cooler. The dining room has a warm and welcoming feel, with a great mix of table sizes that are well spaced for a comfortable dining environment. Lots of windows give you great natural light during the day for lunches and a wood burning fireplace completes the ambiance on the chilly nights.
There are a few other exciting parts of this opportunity, like the potential to expand on the property if you chose to. The full basement could be built out as an event space or some other sort of venue or business, or as a living space for the owner. This is an opportunity that you really need to see to fully appreciate the potential of the property and business. Please call to arrange a private tour so you can see it for yourself. |
