Beware of Ontario Comsumers Home Services Inc-Bait and Switch Scam-Diane Plant, Broker Forest Hill Real Estate - 02/23/12 04:40 AM
I had a very interesting experience yesterday. Know that I am a very cautious person when it comes to answering my door to strangers.
Two men, with official looking tags rang the bell. My son answered through the window. He thought I should speak to these people because they seemed to be dealing with one of the services connected to our home.
I looked at their tags and felt that this was safe-it was-but in fact they were scammers. We have Enbridge gas as our supplier and Direct Energy for our hot water tank rental. (Ontario Consumers Home … (3 comments)

What is a "bully" offer-Diane Plant Forest Hill Real Estate - 02/15/12 01:58 PM
I wrote a blog on my SOLD 70 Shallmar Blvd and got a comment that she did not know what a bully offer is.
Simply put-it is an offer that comes in to the listing agent in advance of an offer acceptance date.
Toronto is a very HOT HOT HOt real estate market. There a very few listings on the MLS, but there are hungry buyers chomping at the bit for anything new that comes out. Consequently agents hold off on taking offers until a specified date. The listing will say "offers welcome on xyz date by such and such time. … (5 comments)

SOLD 70 Shallmar Blvd. Toronto-in 6 days-Diane Plant, Broker, Forest Hill Real Estate - 02/15/12 09:49 AM
70 Shallmar Blvd SOLD
Sold in 6 days with a bully offer.
This house set a new high in the Upper Forest Hill Village for an unrenovated house.
It was also a very difficult deal because it was an assignment with a March 15th closing. Assigment offers should be done with the lawyer's involved, otherwise it is too hard to make the Buyer and Seller understand what needs to be done in the wording of an offer. The negotiation started out as an assignment but ended with a regular offer of and Agreement of Purchase and Sale. Always best … (1 comments)
