Hire a Professional,

Hire a REALTOR® A qualified, competent REALTOR® will help you navigate the myriad of decisions that arise when buying and selling a home. A REALTOR® provides value to the homeowner in many ways: • Pays for all marketing and advertising costs.

• Adds experience and expertise in all aspects of the sales process including marketing, financing, negotiations and more.

• Handles all showings.

• Brings a network of known, trusted real estate professionals. If your REALTOR® doesn’t have the answer, he or she likely knows someone who does.

• Always has your interests in mind so you always have someone on your side.

• Can handle and advise on all price and contract negotiations.

• Provides you with all the possible options and opportunities without holding back.

• Gives an unbiased, realistic view of your home and your options.

• Unlike buyers and sellers, a REALTOR® has no emotional attachment to property.

• Has the knowledge to help you ask the right questions.

• Being a third party, potential buyers are more likely to tell your REALTOR® the truth about your home, even if it is unflattering.

This objective viewpoint will help you make the necessary changes to get your home sold.

• Your time is valuable. A REALTOR® allows you to spend your time how you want.

Ensure there are no leaks evident. Water can run and leak into odd and unexpected places, causing extensive damage over time. Plumbing fixtures, water-using appliances, drain pipes, water supply inlets and outlets and basements and roofs can all be causes and sources of water damage.

Ensure that safety issues are resolved in your home. Trim foliage which may impair a safe view of the area around the home, ensure that windows open easily and close and lock securely and that entrances/exits to the home are able to be securely locked. Hidden curbs, loose railings on stairs, unused wells which are not capped etc., should be corrected.

With respect to plumbing, ensure that all fixtures are in good working order and free from large cracks. Faucets should run easily and shut off completely, proper grouting and caulking should be present around bathtubs, toilets and other fixtures should be bolted down securely and drains should be clog free.

The home's water heater should be in good working condition. – If your current hard water problems have caused deterioration or discolouration in your faucets, it is time to buy

The 7 Deadly Mistakes Most Homesellers Make 1. Failing to analyze why they are selling.

2. Not preparing their home for the buyer's eye.

3. Pricing their homes incorrectly.

4. Selling too hard during showings.

5. Signing a long-term listing agreement without a written performance guarantee.

6. Making it difficult for buyers to get information on their homes.

7. Failing to obtain a pre-approved mortgage for one’s next home.
