House hunting sounds like a lot of fun but it can be stressful at times! Here are a few helpful tips to consider when you’re in the home buying process

1. Take Time To Decide - This is a huge purchase! Go out and grab a coffee after the showing to talk about the decision, you have time to put in the offer!
2. Ask Your Agent Questions - We're here for you! Ask us the hard questions. We won't sugar coat anything and will always fgive our honestprofessional opinion.
3. Not Win Every Offer - It sucks, for you and us!We know how much you loved that home... but we will find another one! You can't win them all, but we'll get you into the right one!
4. Not Settle On A House - We won't ever pressure you into buying a home. We can look at as many homes as you need to feel like you're getting everything you want!

The quickest way to upgrade a kitchen is to add new paint and update the hardware! When the kitchen looks dated, buyers are more likely to offer much less than the asking price!

A dark home comes across as small and uninviting. Make sure all blinds are open, and lights are turned on. Another thing to consider is to up the wattage in your bulbs. Lighting makes a HUGE difference in your homes appearance! bulb

One of the MOST important steps to selling your home is having top of the line marketing materials, as well as offer my clients the best experience and get their listing out to the most people possible!

On top of the usual online marketing through MLS, I send out regular newsletters and flyers, as well as a strong social media presence with daily posts and featured listings!

How do you find your perfect home?

1. Most important - think about what your non negotiables are. Do you need a certain amount of bedrooms, room to grow? Downsizing? A yard for pets? Make a list and make sure you're looking at those factors when searching.

2. Find a home that is in your budget and shop within it! The worst thing you can do is look at homes you can't afford. You'll always compare the luxury homes with homes in your budget and you'll be left feeling overwhelmed and disappointed.

3. Bigger isn't always better. Think about your needs, and how much home you want to clean (LOL!)

4. Good neighbourhoods are so important! Research the crime rates in the city you want to live in! What are your non negotiables in your home? Do you wish you made a list?

The first thing your potential buyer sees is the outside of your home. Some things to consider would be: freshening up your curb appeal by pressure washing the side walk, driveway and sides of the house. A fresh coat of paint on the front door, seasonal flowers and a welcome mat. These small changes will make huge impressions in the buyers' eyes!

Moving can be extremely stressful on on you but also your pets. Here are a few ideas to help make the process a little easier on both of you:

• Try to limit change and keep your routine as much as possible

• Keep a comfortable, secluded place for your pet

• Inform yourself of new pet laws if you’re moving to a new city

• Change the address on pet files with your vet

• Keep them close or with a familiar friend on moving day - the move can startle them and they may try to escape the new location!
