Those homeowners planning to sell early in the New Year should take a moment to plan ahead. Timing is important when entering a Real Estate Market. If you want a painless sale with a truly beneficial outcome, your home must be picture perfect, priced well and ready to be promoted and marketed by your chosen Realtor by the end of February! If you need more time, be sure to have ready for the Market by the week, following March Break, any later than that… and you may be disappointed. This is the time to keep the realities of this new Buyers … (0 comments)

barrie real estate market: Buyers Unable to Make a Decision
- 10/03/08 02:51 AM
I've noticed that there are a lot of indecisive buyers out there… It is understandable that with the uncertain economy and turmoil in US, Canadians don’t really know what’s coming… And this huge step of buying a home is after all one of the most important decisions you will make. BUT… I’ve seen buyers crying at an Open House, because they just missed out on the home of their dreams and now have to start the search again. I had requests for showings on townhouses that were available for months and months and when Clients finally decided that YES, they would … (1 comments)
barrie real estate market: Buying a Fixer-Upper. Are you Ready?
- 09/02/08 03:33 AM
Fixer Upper Craze is here! In the wake of all the HGTV shows about "flipping houses" i.e. renovating and selling, Realtors find themselves with a renewed interest in such opportunities on part of their Clients. Some of them understand what's involved in such endeavor and come to the table with realistic expectations; others look for imaginary homes that are supposedly listed at $100,000 in the market that sells a fixer upper for $200,000… The second group is very reluctant to guidance from a Realtor, and yet we have to try to get them to where they should be realistically. If we … (1 comments)

It's a wise thing to be informed and so, each chance I get I try to do just that. Our latest monthly office Lunch & Learn provided thrills and chills down my spine yesterday. We were lucky to have a guest speaker form CMHC who came in with hot new news and information pertaining to the up to the minute events in our local and not so local market. Just as other Barrie homeowners, the Realtors in this beautiful city are uncertain as to where the market will go... Well, we got an eye opener, yesterday.

Today on the way to the office, I was listening to the radio and yet again I heard the dreaded news: TD Bank says that the Canadian Housing Boom is over… I know that many people are very concerned about the future of our Housing Markets in Canada, but what does news such as this truly mean to the average you and me?
