Good Afternoon All!

 

The Greater Vancouver Real Estate Board created this document, and I thought
it was quite interesting and very helpful....even without the specifics of their
municipalities.  This article was forwarded to me by my mortgage broker, John Hudey, mortgage specialist at RBC.

Thank you John!

Posted in make a plan for the family
My step-daughter was on her honeymoon in New Zealand and staying in a hostel in ChristChurch.  She happened to be up a mountain when the quake hit and was able to run for cover to dogde car size boulders tumbling down in the parking lot where she and her husband were standing!  We are so gratetful and thankful that they are home now, safe and sound.  Too close a call.
New Zealand, now Japan, and also Hawaii...mother nature appears to be reminding us that we are but just small beings in the great scheme of things. Our worries and problems are often insignificant in the big picture.  SOOOOO....We had a famiy meeting this morning and decided that it was REALLY time to prepare an Emergency Kit for the home and to develop an emergency plan for the family in the event that it will be our media reporters here in BC filming horrific scenes of destruction and disaster. 
 
 If you're like me...you'll need a checklist!  Here's a couple of links to help.

Really.  There's no time like the present and nothing more precious then our own dear  friends and family.

Posted in Home for Sale, Real Estate, realizing your homes best valu, Staging your home

First impressions can be everything. Many people simply drive by a listing and make a decision based on your home’s curb appeal. So, don’t forget the importance of creating a well-manicured entryway – to entice potential buyers. Maintaining a neat and attractive exterior to your home will show buyers that you take pride on your property.

Here Are A Few Tips...

Landscaping

Consider planting a few bushes and colourful mature flowers to create an eye catching display. Ensure that your lawn is well manicured: mowed, watered and void of brown spots.

 

 

 

 

 

Front Door

Look critically at your front entrance: does the door or the porch railing cry out for a fresh coat of paint? Polish the door handle and invest in a new welcome mat.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Front Porch

If it’s spring or summer, plant colourful containers to flank your entrance. If it’s autumn, rake leaves. During winter, clear the snow and ice from your walkway. Whatever the season, look closely to determine if any repairs are needed. All loose cement or rotting wood should be replaced.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Shine On

Many serious buyers will want to drive by your home after the sun goes down. Remember to ensure that all outdoor light bulbs are turned on in order to show your home in its best light.
