Recreational Guide to Inspecting Your PropertyWhat should I look for when viewing a recreational property?Nothing can spoil your summer fun as much as a cottage plagued with costly and time-consuming maintenance problems.

What is my credit rating? There are a number of steps to getting mortgage financing. A particularly important step - and one many people don't give much thought to is the credit check. As a routine part of the application process the lender will order a copy of your credit history.

Information such as what credit and debit cards you have, the types of accounts you have at various financial institutions, information about personal loans, mortgages, student … (0 comments)

Staging your home could help you get close to your asking price or even more. Some painting, some rearranging and removal of some furniture and other clutter items, could open things up for you.

The average buyer has little imagination when it comes to projecting themselves into a resale home. Even though you spent countless hours painting and decorating for yourselves it means little to the young couple viewing your home. They may … (0 comments)

Fifty-eight per cent of buyers surveyed revealed that they were willing to make a decision after viewing 10 homes or less, while only 11 per cent of buyers thought they would have to view over 20 homes in order to feel comfortable making a decision. An overwhelming majority of people (83%) surveyed said that they would regard their Realtor's assessment of the home as somewhat or very important.

dundas: Avoid Insurance With 20% Down
- 06/23/07 05:45 AM
Since mid April, all you need is just 20% down to avoid mortgage insurance fees. The old law was 25%, and it's been around for 40 years. This change should save you about $2500, for example, on a typical $300,000 home. The savings includes the mortgage insurance fee itself and the interest you pay to borrow for the fee. The savings will apply to both new purchases and refinances. The only ones not celebrating this new law are CMHC, Genworth and AIG insurance. They're about to lose a nice chunk of insurance premium revenue. Fortunately, according to Jim Rawson from Invis (as quoted in The Star), competition among … (0 comments)

Canada's housing market got off to a surprisingly strong start in 2007 with average house prices rising in all major markets surveyed, according to a first quarter report released by Royal LePage Real Estate Services.

While national average house prices experienced robust appreciation, significant regional differences continue to characterize the market.
