Celebrating the Earth Day Achieving a green world lies in the hands of the nurturers. How do we care for our mother earth? What can we do to contribute? A celebration such as the Earth day is a good way to remind us of our natural responsibility to take part in energy conservation or taking on green jobs, among other activities. Everything begins from doing our own personal commitment to lead a green lifestyle. Spreading the word to celebrate the Earth Day or setting an example in school, at work and at home could create an impact. We do not have to take huge steps. Simple things count, such as recycling, or buy reusable containers and bags. You could grow some plants, take a walk, ride a bicycle, or do carpooling. There are so many things that could be done. It could start from how we ...
"Could I Do the Home Selling on My Own?" As a homeowner, you are well aware about the many aspects of your home. If you have occupied the property, you know how good you've maintained and worked on it over the years. At some point, you may need to do some repairs.

And why not? Of course as a homeowner, your concern is to know what would be the amount of return from your original investment, should you decide to really sell your property. There, your question goes,...
How Much is the Property Worth? Before a person can do any business of either buying or selling a home, one should be able to assess how much it will likely sell in the market. Usually, the buyer should be concerned about how much a seller is willing to accept the price that is being offered on the purchase of the property, considering all other factors. A consumer seeking the help of a real estate agent is often given a market evaluation to review. The CMA or what we call the Comparative Market Analysis is about looking at the properties that are currently on the market or have been sold in the last few months (usually three to six months on average) or depending on the market area. Both the buyer and the seller need to understand this aspect, in order to have a better idea how much a ...
How Canadians Are Responding to Changes on Mortgage Rates We've been hearing the news lately about the interest rates increase and somehow, we can't help but wonder how it will affect us. Some consumers have started locking in their mortgage while others are in the wait-and-see mode. An article in the Financial Post published on April 20, 2010 reveals that Canadians are taking the news on the mortgage rates increase in a not-so-alarming position. After all, we've been there at some point and the recession has given us so much time to understand, plan and prepare for our needs. Putting our priorities in place would obviously make a difference. Consumers should look at their financial position, individually and as part of the household, whether they are comfortable with their spending or ...
