Happy 2025 Edmonton! New to real estate or a long time investor; come out and network, promote your business and prepare yourself for what 2025 has to offer. Jeff Gunther, 40 year investor will be giving his predictions for 2025.

Event: Wednesday January 8th at 6:30pm at the Sandman Hotel West 17635 Stony Plain Rd, Edmonton, AB T5S 1E3. Reserve your seat at EREIA.ca.

Topic: 2025: Business as Usual or Cataclysmic Change? with Jeff Gunther MBA MCS

Jeff Gunther has been active in real estate investment for over 40 years. He has acquired and developed hundreds of residential units in the Edmonton area, and hosts a private mastermind for large-scale investors across North America.

In 1997, Jeff wrote a research paper forecasting an imminent and sustained rise in real estate values in specific Canadian markets. While his forecast proved remarkably accurate, his ability to follow his own advice was somewhat less impressive!
