Commercial realtors help sell
747 Dover Crt. Qualicum Beach $359,900
Does a commercial REALTOR® add value to a sale, or are business owners better off selling their businesses themselves? Weigh your options wisely and take note of these important considerations. Selling a business is complex. It requires the expertise of a professional who understands the commercial market and can follow through with an aggressive marketing plan to sell your business for its maximum value. Your REALTOR® can develop a comprehensive marketing plan that far exceeds anything you can create on your own. Your property will be put in front of buyers worldwide, providing maximum exposure. Your commercial REALTOR® will also provide REALTORS® - only tours, targeted newspaper listings, direct mail pieces, signs, advertising on CLSLink and other marketing activities. Setting the price of your business is vital and requires extensive knowledge, training and access to the latest market information. Can you accurately gauge the value of your business in today's changing market? Can you risk pricing your business too high and discouraging potential buyers or pricing it too low and losing some of your equity? Commercial REALTORS® are experienced negotiators. Ask yourself this: are you able to be objective while a potential buyer walks through your business pointing out flaws and potential problems? Are you able to suggest financing options to potential buyers? REALTORS® are skilled in arranging financing and closing deals. They also provide undivided loyalty in protecting your negotiating position at all times. A commercial REALTOR® will implement marketing initiatives, advise you on market conditions and prepare your legal documents when drawing up a legally binding contract.

Buying a home Buying a home is one of the biggest financial decisions many people will ever make in their lives. In addition to using the services of a REALTOR®, there are a few questions you can ask yourself to help guide you through the process. Is Home Ownership Right for You? One of the biggest reasons people want to buy is to build equity in their own home, rather than continue to pay rent. However, being a homeowner and being a renter are two very different things. Are you ready to take on the responsibility of all the costs involved in homeownership, including mortgage payments, repairs, and maintenance? Do you have a down payment, or the ability to get one? Can you afford to buy? Media reports on the cost of housing sometimes make it seem like home ownership is impossible for many people. What these reports never mention is there is a wide variety and range of homes on the market. A REALTOR® can help you find a home that fits your needs and budget. And with today’s low interest rates all it takes is some careful planning to make homeownership affordable and possible. What do you want to buy? When buying a home, you want to make sure it meets your actually needs. Size, location, and lifestyle are the most important things to consider. Then there are special features (like storage space or energy savings) and whether or not to

The Parksville Qualicum Beach News Thursday, May 1, 2014
How to review an offer for purchase If you have ever sold a home before, you know there is a lot more to an offer to purchase than merely the price the buyer is willing to pay. Other important factors that must be weighed carefully include a suitable closing date, financing, conditions and items which are to be included in the sale. It is a good idea to discuss all of these points with your REALTOR®. Closing Date: The closing date is one of the most important things to consider. Is it going to involve extra cost to you to have to move on a particular date? Are you going to have to store your furniture because of a short closing or face the prospect of carrying two properties for a couple of extra months because of an unusually long closing? Financing: Financing also has a great impact on the offer. For example, if you have to discharge existing debts and mortgages against the property, be sure to verify whether you will have to pay early discharge fees. In the offer, the buyer may also request that you take back a mortgage. If you are retired and you are trading down to something smaller, you may want to take back a mortgage and enjoy the resulting income. On the other hand, if you are trading up, you may not be interested in this option because you may need the funds for a bigger down payment. Conditions: Conditions on financing are generally quite short and, as a seller, you will want to know if the buyers will be able to get the necessary financing before you accept their offer. You may be better off with an offer that is slightly less in price but has fewer restrictive conditions. Items included in the sale: Buyers may wish to include certain chattels in the sale of your home -- like the antique crystal chandelier in the dining room, or the custom-made bookcase that fits perfectly between the living room windows. You may, however, have formed an emotional attachment to these items and be somewhat reluctant to include them in the transaction. If there are items you do not want included in the sale, it might be a good idea to remove them from sight before you put your home on the market. How a REALTOR® helps: Your REALTOR® has used his or her knowledge, training and expertise along with access to the Multiple Listing Service® to help find a possible buyer for your home. He or she will review all offers with you and help you to assess them objectively -- so be prepared to allot an adequate amount of time for this task. It will be up to you to decide whether you want to accept an offer, decline it altogether or make a counter-offer. This article was prepared by the Vancouver Island Real Estate Board“An Association of Realtors”, for the information and benefit of consumers.

Five misconceptions about property taxes
P27
TOM DODDS 250-248-8371 Toll free 1-888-954-4433
1. You can appeal property taxes: No. You can appeal your assessment, not your taxes. You annually receive your assessment the first week of January and must appeal by January 31.
Coast Realty Group Parksville
PROPERTY HAS TERRIFIC POTENTIAL • Solid older 3 bdrm home with 16x24 ft. workshop on almost 1/2 acre in city limits. Check this one out, it is not a drive-by • Designated use multi-family residential in community plan
2. An appeal will change the market value: The market value may not correlate to the assessed value. BC Assessment typically assesses properties as of the previous July 1. A REALTOR® valuing a home now – 11 months later – may find the market has changed, the home has had an addition or the street has been re-zoned, all of which affect value.
• Great holding property for future development. Excellent rental
Offered at Only!
380 HIRST AVENUE (PARKSVILLE)
GREAT INVESTMENT DOWNTOWN PORT ALBERNI! • 2 bedroom 1 bath cutie in Port Alberni • Make a great rental, fixed up nicely. • Close to all aamenities.
3. If you just bought a home, the previous owners are liable for taxes: No. When you buy a property you become liable for all outstanding taxes. 4. New home owners can claim the Home Owner Grant: No. New home owners cannot claim the Home Owner Grant if the seller paid the taxes or if the new home owner claimed a grant on another property.

How to pay property taxes Your best source of information on how to pay your property taxes is your local government. Remember, you will need to pay by your due date, and include your Home Owner Grant • Online by www.epost.ca: you must first sign up for this free online Canada Post delivery service that lets you pay electronically. When you pay and claim your Home Owner Grant electronically, you’ll receive a receipt with a confirmation number. • In person: take your tax notice and a credit or debit card, your cheque book, a certified cheque or cash to your local government finance department. Check business hours. • At the drop box: located near the front entrance of most City Hall offices. There may be drop boxes in alternate locations as well. • By mail: your payment must arrive at City Hall by the due date on your tax notice. • At a financial institution: most banks and credit unions accept tax payments in person. You can also pay online or by phone through your bank or credit union. Remember to submit your Home Owner Grant form directly to City Hall. • Through your mortgage: your mortgage company can pay your property taxes on your behalf if you arrange for this service beforehand. • By installments: check with your local government to see if prepayment options are offered.

Should I sell without a realtor®?
Homeowners who try to sell their own home generally use a REALTOR®. Whether you are capable of handling a sale of this magnitude or whether you would be better off using a REALTOR® will depend on how you answer these questions: • Are you familiar with the changing real estate market to accurately evaluate your home and set a price that will satisfy you and be attractive to prospective buyers? • Are you familiar with real estate law and all of the regulations that affect property ownership? Will you be ready to reveal known defects of your home and do you know what you are required by law to reveal? Are you prepared to face a lawsuit if the sale of your property is mishandled in any way? • Do you have good selling skills? Do you know how to advertise and market your property to get the best results? Are you prepared to pay months of newspaper advertising and be available on a 24-hour basis to handle calls? • Are you a good negotiator? Can you hold your ground when faced with aggressive buyers looking for bargains? Are you comfortable haggling face-to-face over the price? • Do you have the time to show your home on evenings and weekends? If you take an evening off, will you miss the one chance you have for a sale? • Do you have a network of contacts to produce potential buyers and are you able to screen out unqualified prospects -- people who are just curious? Are you comfortable inviting strangers into your home at 9:00 p.m. because they saw your sign? • Can you qualify a prospective buyer’s financial capability? Do you know what types of financing are available? Do you have the knowledge and contacts necessary to help the buyer arrange mortgages? • Can you write a legally binding contract? Do you have offer forms readily available? Do you have a lawyer to advise you on essential terms that must be in the contract? • Can you close a sale? Are you familiar with the many steps required after an offer has been accepted? • Will you truly save money trying to sell your home yourself?

Preparing your home for sale listing price. Ensure your home is spotless and free of clutter. The two most important rooms in a buyer’s mind are the kitchen and the bathroom. Pay particular attention to these areas -- they should sparkle and shine. Making repairs: Some things must be repaired if there are problems. A leaky roof, electrical problems, furnaces, water heaters and plumbing all must be fixed before a sale. Other things just need attention. These can include leaky faucets, holes in window screens and any broken glass, etc. If some of your walls are too dirty to come clean, you may wish to consider a paint job. Carpets and rugs should also be clean and in good repair. When selling your home, it’s more than purchase price and location that will make or break a deal. How your home looks is also very important. Your REALTOR® can give you an objective opinion of what you need to do. REALTORS® have the experience and knowledge that can help identify problem areas or suggest improvements.

Outside and In: Take a close look at your yard. If it’s spring or summer, prune the trees and shrubs, and keep the lawn neat. If it’s fall, rake the leaves regularly. And in the winter, make sure walks and driveways are kept clear of snow and ice.
In most cases, REALTORS® will not suggest major renovations. A few minor repairs here and there and a thorough cleaning are usually all that are required.
To renovate or not to renovate: Most renovations do not translate into an increase in selling price of more than the cost of the renovations themselves. Painting, wallpapering and modest landscape improvements usually recover their costs, but major projects such as new patios, decks or additions rarely do.
Cleaning up the homestead: Almost all buyers are on the lookout for one thing -- a clean home. Many will walk away if a home looks uncared for, or make an offer much lower than the
