video marketing: Let's do a Hollywood Production! - 03/02/14 08:07 AM
People Love a good Story; a little gossip, a little puffery and embellishment to get your engagement, spark your interest. That Conversation over the back yard fence.
My job as a realtor is not different. I need to talk about the homes history, the neighbourhood and useful facts about the local market.  Once we have created an emotional attachment; the offer cannot be far behind.

Today with online listings, we are adding photo galleries and professionally produced videos of beautifully decorated homes and some emotional spark to engage with you, the swing set with kids laughing, the surprise birthday party, … (0 comments)

video marketing: Welcome to Toronto 2011 - 01/04/11 04:43 AM
Lets recap the Toronto Real Estate Market events for 2010 and forecast for 2011.
Although We saw a “softening” of the number of sales in 2010, but not the “bubble bursting” that was predicted by so many. we finished with 86k sales just slightly below the 87k in 2009. Listings right now are at 10k homes for sale. This is very low for a city of 4 million plus in the Toronto GTA.

So, what will happen in 2011? Inventory numbers (number of houses for sale) will remain relatively low and prices in the GTA will continue to rise … (0 comments)

Could a condo be in your future? Would you escape … (0 comments)
