THE NANAIMO REAL ESTATE REVIEW, JANUARY 3, 2013 – 7
KNOWLEDGE If knowledge is power, then a REALTOR is the most powerful professional ally you can have when it comes to selling or buying your home. When you work with a REALTOR, you’re getting the advantage of professional training and practical experience. A REALTOR will get you the facts: comparable prices, neighbourhood trends, housing market conditions and more. A REALTOR will help you understand the significance of terms like “conditional offer”, “interim financing” and “right of first refusal.” And remember, only a REALTOR, a member of The Canadian Real Estate Association, has access to the Multiple Listing Service®, Canada’s most powerful real estate marketing system.
Only a Realtor is qualified to handle the most important financial transaction of your life.

Should you top up your RSP or pay down your mortgage?
Yes. For many people, it is best to maximize your RSP contribution, and use the tax refund to pay down your mortgage. But, there are many factors to consider, such as our age, income, mortgage rate and if you’re behind in your RRSPs. We can help you make the right decision for your financial situation. Contact us to find out how smart advice and a personalized plan can help you provide for the people you care about... now and over time.
