1st February, 2013

My husband and I are pleased to provide this letter of reference for Brady, Tad, and Paul- the RE/MAX Property Lab Team. They have been a pleasure to deal with from start to finish.

Paul spent quite some time producing an amazing video presentation of our home. Tad’s stunning photos meticulously taken from all the right angles definitely showed off our property in the best possible way.

We can’t stress enough how essential this type of marketing expertise is nowadays because most buyers spend hours scanning MLS properties on line. Any tool that can get them “in the door” so to speak, in a virtual world will then produce a showing appointment, which is the first step towards a sale.

Our highest praise is reserved for Brady. From the day we met him when we were interviewing Realtors, Brady has conducted himself with the utmost professionalism. Not only has he represented our property well, holding various Realtor open houses and providing us with timely updates after each showing, he also brought us our first offer. The first offer was instrumental in creating a second offer at full price which we accepted.

In our minds the Property Lab Team did an excellent job and we wish them continued success in the future.

Open Floor Plans Open floor plans have evolved to be the floor plan of choice in new homes and current home renovations.

Turn on a home renovation show, and you’re likely to see eager homeowners knocking down walls to open the kitchen to the family room. Walls have become anathema to homeowners.

There are many supporters of the open floor plan, particularly those who entertain frequently or like to keep an eye on children throughout the house. Although open floor plans are touted, there are plenty of people who have never been enamored with having all of their rooms flowing into one. There also are some people who prefer a different style.

For those who are not fans of the open floor plan, blame the excess of the 1980s for their inception. In homes built in the 1960s and 1970s, rooms were compartmentalized and isolated for specific activities. During the 1980s, an era of “bigger is better,” when entertaining was widely popular among homeowners, designers noticed that many homeowners preferred an open floor plan in which

1301 Grosvenor Place 1301 Grosvenor Place 4 bedrooms, 4 bedrooms, 33 bathrooms bathrooms 3000+ feet 3000+square square feet $374,900 $374,900

rooms merged into one another, creating the illusion of more space. These floor plans also enable people to be in separate rooms and still interact with one another across the space.

A home’s floor plan largely depends on the preference of the homeowner. There are many advantages to having an open floor plan versus one that is more compartmentalized. Here is a look at some of the pros and cons.

Pro: Open floor plans can be safer for parents of young children. If the home opens up with the living spaces branching off from the kitchen, parents can keep an eye on children while the parents prepare dinner. It also eliminates the number of places that kids can hide and get into mischief.

Con: On the flip side, those who want to incorporate different color schemes and 1301 eclectic stylesPlace may have Grosvenor bedrooms, 3 bathrooms difficulty deciding on where4 to “end” rooms or how to 3000+ square feet co-mingle furniture. $374,900

How to improve your

9

Home’s Curb Appeal

Men and women who have tried to sell a home are likely familiar with the phrase “curb appeal.” Curb appeal is similar to getting ready for a big date, only you’re not dressing yourself up to make a strong first impression.

Instead, improving curb appeal involves dressing your home up in the hopes it makes a strong first impression on prospective buyers, many of whom will have a strong opinion about the property before they even get out of their cars to have a look around.

new g n i t i exc ! design

LUXURY TOWNHOMES At THE GRAINE

A home with strong curb appeal can entice buyers who are likely to believe that a home with a well-maintained exterior is likely to have an equally impressive interior. Homeowners who want the process of selling their home to go smoothly can improve the property’s curb appeal in a number of ways, many of which don’t necessitate a substantial home improvement budget.

* Clean up. The most effective way to improve curb appeal is to clean up the property. Many homeowners are savvy enough to remove toys and other items from the yard before showing a home, but cleaning up goes beyond removing clutter from the property. Make sure all hedges are trimmed and remove weeds, sticks and other debris from any flower beds. Lay mulch in the flower beds and garden, as mulch prevents weed growth while helping the soil retain moisture, resulting in more attractive gardens to catch a buyer’s eye.

Phase 4

* Get an “edge” on other sellers. Edging is another easy and effective way to improve curb appeal. Edge driveways, sidewalks and other walkways around the property, removing or trimming anything that is hanging over the driveway or walkways. If the boundary between your driveway and lawn is not distinct, consider installing edging materials such as stone or bricks. The edging can be level with the driveway or elevated, but keep in mind that elevated driveway edging can protect the lawn, preventing kids from riding their bicycles onto the lawn or cars from driving onto it. Adding edging is not a very difficult do-it-yourself project.

1106 Seventh Street Nelson, BC

* Take to the trees. Many homeowners grow accustomed to overgrown trees around their property and may not notice that low-hanging, unsightly branches are hiding the home from view. Buyers want to see the house, so take to the trees and trim any branches that hang too low or obscure your home. * Clean the gutters. Leaves and sticks hanging from the gutters are a red flag to buyers, who tend to associate clogged gutters with roof damage. Clean the gutters thoroughly before putting your home up for sale and keep them clean throughout the selling process. If your property includes lots of trees, install guards to keep twigs and leaves out of the gutters.

Ensuring a home’s primary entryway is welcoming and wellgroomed is one way homeowners can improve curb appeal.

* Make sure all plants, including flowers, are living. Dehydrated or dead plants and flowers are eyesores, and they will give buyers the impression that you didn’t pay much attention to your property. Make sure all plants are alive and thriving and replace those that aren’t. You can replant new flowers or plants or just use potted plants instead. When purchasing new plants, choose low-maintenance varieties that appeal to buyers who want good vibrant plants but might not want to put in much work into the garden.

the First Home Buyers Program

NOBODY IN THE WORLD SELLS MORE REAL ESTATE THAN RE/MAX®

There are many common questions regarding the government’s RRSP First Home Buyers Program. Such as “What is the maximum I can withdraw?”, “When do I have to pay it back?”, “Are there tax implications?” and others linger in the back of first-time homebuyers minds.

The First Time Home Buyers Program is a program that allows first-time homebuyers to withdraw a maximum of $25,000 from their RRSP in order to fund their down-payment. But, these RRSP contributions must be in the account for at least 90 days before they can be used and must be repaid within 15 years of the withdrawal.

#100 1444 Columbia Ave. RIGHT ACROSS FROM

For those who find this option interesting, but lack the current funds, there are ways to get there. First, find out how much RRSP contribution room you have.

This can be checked from the bottom of your notice of income tax assessment which everyone receives annually. Or, if you cannot locate yours, you can log into the Canada Revenue Agency’s website to find out.

Once you determine how much room you have remaining in your RRSP, you can come up with a plan to top it up. One idea is to take out a loan such as BMO RRSP ReadiLineTM and use the funds to contribute to your RRSP. The loan can then be repaid throughout the year and you can receive a tax credit for the RRSP contribution which can be used to build your down payment or help repay the loan.

After you’ve withdrawn an amount under the First Home Buyers Program from your RRSP, you must repay it within 15 years but you have a 2 year grace period before you have to start paying it back. So if you withdrew the full $25,000 then you would need to repay approximately $1,670 per year. Let’s say after the 2 year grace period, you only repay $1,000 during the third year. The remaining $670 would become taxable income, which could mean you might owe the government some income tax. So it’s good idea to ensure that you’ll have the ability to repay you the amount you withdrew from your RRSP within 15 years.

It is also a good idea to talk to your tax advisor to get more information about the tax implications of contributing to your RRSP and withdrawing RRSP money under the First Home Buyers Program.
