Unfortunately, I also just watched. Put in a bid on one at $1.70 last spring, got down to 1.71 and over $7.00 now. Should have bought instead of watched. Seems like shortage of rigs and people is real from everyone I talk to. This mainly affects smaller guys that don't want to rent one year round. Good for our provincial economy. Vacancy rates on apartments is going way down again. But has been down to 2% before. Real estate prices are rising again. But its not uncommon to see real estate go up (and down) 100%. Still see stores closing in the mall. Shortage of summer students got them to pay $1 to $1 higher.
