Can Your Dream Come True in Thunder Bay? Yes.
THUNDER BAY – Moneysense Magazine says that Thunder Bay is the best place to invest in Real Estate. There are many opportunities for savvy investors, often from outside of the city many who see the potential and opportunity more than some local residents.
“As in the rest of the world, some of the baby boomers in the small and medium business category here in Thunder Bay have aged and are looking to retire,” stated Doug Murray from the Community Economic Development Corporation. “We recognized this at the Thunder Bay CEDC and have created a web page on our site entitled Business Opportunities (www.thunderbaycedc.ca/businessopportunities) “.
“This year we will start marketing our site throughout Canada and the world to promote the opportunities to afford a business and a house in Thunder Bay versus other locations in Canada and the world”.
“Besides we all know Thunder Bay is a great place to live so why not tell the world that,” concluded Murray.
Thunder Bay is an evolving and Modern City
Thunder Bay, located on Lake Superior offers a wide range of reasons that people who move here love the location. From sailing on Lake Superior, to world-class Nordic and Alpine skiing – to a growing number of amazing restaurants with cuisine choices from around the world.
“Thunder Bay has had comparably low real estate costs for many years. While our prices have risen in recent years they have still remained lower than many other centres, making this a strategic advantage for our community to attract professionals,” states Charla Robinson, President of the Thunder Bay Chamber of Commerce.
“Now we need to work on the affordability of living in that home – our tax rates are above average for comparable communities. City Council needs to find ways to reduce city spending so that our taxes can be lowered. The Chamber believes that an external core service review is a good start to that process,” added Robinson.
