Moving
Made eaSy
hether you’re relocating from one coast to the other or moving to your first place out of your parents’ home, changing homes can be hectic, exciting and certainly stressful. But, relax. You can eliminate all of the anxiety associated with moving by taking control of the situation with confidence. If you decide to move yourself, book a moving truck well in advance from a reliable company that can help you give you tips on moving as well as advice regarding the size of vehicle you will need. If you decide to go with a pro, ask your friends and family to recommend a mover. Call at least three companies to ask about their services and then decide. Professional movers can do everything for you if you wish, from packing and unpacking, to disconnecting appliances and electronics, but of course there’s extra cost involved. Make sure you understand the terms of your agreement no matter what you decide, as well any other additional costs such as insurance and mileage costs so you can budget accordingly.

Make your Move
all is just around the corner and next to spring, it’s typically the busiest time of year for residential real estate. It’s an exciting time on the home front, but don’t get caught up in all the hoopla. A home is likely the most significant purchase you’ll make in your lifetime, so keep a level head when making your offer. Stay cool and don’t let your emotions get the best of you. Multiple offers may be rolling in on your dream home, but don’t let yourself become a bidding war casualty. It’s up to you to decide what a home is worth to you! This is where your real estate agent, lender and lawyer can be your best friends, helping you to keep your emotions in check and make a decision based on facts. Use their expertise and make a smart bid that reflects what the home is worth and what you can comfortably afford. Get pre-approved for a mortgage and once you have your magic number, compare your dream home to others that sold in the same area. Your Realtor has access to the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) and can fill you in on sales volumes, average prices and days on market, both by housing type and neighbourhood, allowing you to make a fair offer. Finally, don’t forget about the added costs associated with buying real estate. These include the agent’s and lawyer’s bills, home inspection fee, taxes, property insurance and moving costs. These add up, so make sure you budget for it all.

Seller’s market persists
T
he Realtors Association of Hamilton-Burlington (RAHB) reported 1,288 properties sold through the RAHB Multiple Listing Service (MLS) in July. This represents a 3.9-per-cent increase in the number of sales over July of last year. The average sale price of $387,108 was an increase of 10.7 per cent over the previous July. There were 1,852 properties listed in July, an increase of 5.4 per cent over July of last year. End-of-month listing inventory is 3.3 per cent lower than last year. “We are still experiencing a seller’s market in our market area,” said RAHB CEO Ross Godsoe. “We thought earlier in the year we might see a more balanced market by this point, but that hasn’t been the case.”
RHH_3313.indd 14
Volume 13 Issue 16
Seasonally adjusted* sales of residential properties were less than one per cent lower than the same month last year, with the average sale price up 12.5 per cent for the month. Seasonally adjusted numbers of new listings were 1.8 per cent higher than the same month last year. Actual overall residential sales were 4.5 per cent higher than the previous year at the same time. Residential freehold sales were 5.7 per cent higher than last year while the condominium market saw virtually the same number of sales. The average sale price of freehold properties showed an increase of 11.7 per cent over the same month last year; the condominium market saw an increase of 2.9 per cent when compared to the same period last year. The average sale price is based on the total dollar volume of all residential properties sold. Average sale price information can be useful in establishing long term trends, but should not be used as an indicator that specific properties have increased or decreased in value. The average days on market decreased from 45 days to 42 days in the freehold market and remained at 45 days for condominiums. Year to date, listings are down less than one per cent compared to the same period last year, while sales are 2.4 per cent lower. The average sale price for the first half of the year is 8.1 per cent higher than the same period last year. *Seasonal adjustment removes normal seasonal variations, enabling analysis of monthly changes and fundamental trends in the data.

packing tips
to make your move a little easier Packing tiPs ❏ Gather boxes in all sizes from friends, neighbours and stores.
❏ Label boxes containing fragile items with large red lettering.
❏ Collect cushioning material such as bubble wrap, foam pellets, furniture pads, old blankets, plastic bags, tissue paper, newspapers and small towels to use as padding inside boxes.
❏ Place china in plastic bags and stack plates upright on their sides, not flat.
❏ Create a “portable packing kit” with marking pens, a tape measure, packing tape, twine and scissors. Carry it with you as you pack up items in your home.
❏ Pack your TV, stereo and computer in their original boxes whenever possible. ❏ Keep boxes to 50 pounds or less.
❏ Reinforce the bottom of boxes with extra tape for added strength.
❏ Pack heavy items into their own smaller boxes and place lighter items together into larger boxes. (Hint: Don’t pack all your books into one box!)
❏ Label each box with the name of the room in your new home where it should be placed.
❏ Don’t move flammable, combustible, corrosive or explosive items such as paint, gasoline and ammunition.
❏ List the contents of the box on the side of it.
❏ Pack a bag of personal items you’ll need during the move and keep it in an easy-to-find place when you pack.
❏ Number the boxes and keep a list of which boxes go in which room in your new home.
general moving tiPs ❏ Disconnect and bundle cords on television and stereo components. Label each cord with masking tape and a description of where to re-connect it.
❏ To save time on moving day, move your boxes from the basement, upstairs or attic to the main floor prior to the move date. Consider carrying items from the backyard to the front yard or garage ahead of time.
❏ Plan and measure where your furniture will be placed in your new home. It’s helpful to draw a layout of your new home and sketch in the major furniture pieces.
❏ Keep your phone connected through moving day to stay in touch with friends, family and the moving company.

lighten up We’ve teamed up with paint and wallpaper experts Farrow & Ball to give you an inspiring do-it-yourself lamp project for your condo! by sa r a duck
Closet Stripe ST364. $185 per 10m roll. farrow-ball.com
the
steps 01 Measure the height and circumference of your shade. Cut a piece of wallpaper to your shade dimensions, adding 2 cm to the diameter measurement. 02 Mix a small amount of wallpaper paste. Take a pasting brush and, starting from the seam on the lamp shade, paste a section of around 20 cm. Don’t overload the brush or the shade — the paste can be very wet.
What you will need before you start
Condor Wall Coating Brush by Simms. $6. rona.ca
Detachable Scissors by Henckels. $23. kitchenstuffplus.com
03 Line the edge of the wallpaper offcut up against the seam and smooth into place over the glued section of the shade — don’t press too hard or you may dent the shade. Adjust the wallpaper until it’s sitting flush with the top and lower edges of the shade as well as being aligned along the shade seam. 04 To avoid bubbles or crinkles, carefully brush from the centre of the shade to the outside edges using a clean, dry soft bristled wallpaper brush. 05 Leave to dry completely before fixing the shade to your lamp base.
tips
Clear Wallpaper Adhesive by Dynamic. $17. rona.ca
Jonsbo Shade in Beige.
$10. ikea.ca
›› If the circumference of your lamp shade is greater than 52 cm, it’s best to use a stripe or plain pattern as you’ll need to turn the wallpaper on its side.

Give yourself a score of 1 for every “A”, a score of 3 for every “B” and a score of 5 for every “C” answer. If your score is between 8 and 16: You need to roll up your sleeves and get working to prepare your home for sale. Based on your responses, your home will need deep cleaning and de-cluttering before showings start. » Deep-clean your home, ensuring each room and surface is spotless. Make sure to remember your appliances and windows too. » Get rid of the clutter to allow buyers to properly see your home. Pack away unnecessary items and make sure counters and tables are free of appliances and personal items. If any rooms are used for storage alone, pack away the items and properly furnish the rooms. Don’t leave them empty as buyers will have a hard time visualizing living in a space without any furniture. » Remove collectibles and family photos to help de-personalize your home. Buyers will be able to imagine themselves in your space better without your personal items around. Although your fun sense of décor and colour may suit your personality, go neutral for the sale. Adding a fresh coat of neutral paint and getting rid of unusual accessories will ensure that your home appeals to a larger pool of buyers. If pets or a smoker reside in your home, remember that you probably won’t notice the smell if you’re around them all the time. Have a trusted friend give you an honest opinion and clean to get rid of any odours. Lastly, don’t forget about curb appeal. First impressions count, and buyers begin to form an opinion as soon as they pull into your driveway. Keep your yard neat and tidy with your lawn and shrubs trimmed, and flower beds weeded. Store away your children’s toys and garbage bins, and give the exterior of your home a good wash or a fresh coat of paint.
Volume 13 Issue 16
If your score is between 17 and 32: There are a few easy steps you can take to make your home more appealing to buyers. » Clean your home from top to bottom, making sure you pay special attention to kitchens and bathrooms. De-clutter and reorganize your home. Remove any excess furniture to enhance the feeling of openness and space. Storage space is a top priority for buyers, so clean and organize your closets and storage areas. Get rid of anything you don’t need and make sure your closets are not overflowing with items. » Brighten and lighten up your home with a fresh coat of neutral-coloured paint. Soft neutrals such as pale yellow and grey can give a house a nice, sophisticated look that appeals to most buyers. » Store away your eclectic accessories and create more room on your counters and tabletops. Your unique items may be an expression of your personality, but they might also make it more difficult for buyers to visualize themselves in the space. » Finally, fix that leaky faucet and any other minor repairs that you’ve been neglecting around the house. If your score is between 33 and 40: Your home is in top shape and will only need a little bit of work to bring in that sale. One great way to stimulate buyers’ imaginations is to set the scene. Put fresh flowers on the mantel and set the dining room table for a formal dinner. If it’s a cold day, light a fire in the fireplace. Look at your home through the buyers’ eyes and create an atmosphere that will help them envision themselves living there. To further enhance your home’s curb appeal, spruce up your flower beds with fresh, seasonal plants and ground cover to give the home additional touches of colour.

You love the home,
see what You can afford! use this guide to see if You’ll qualifY for a mortgage oN Your dream home 1. Calculate the combined monthly before-tax income between you and your spouse. 2. Divide by three. This figure is the monthly payment you can afford to make on your home. 3. Take the total price of the home and subtract the amount of money you expect to make as a down payment. This is the money you will have to borrow. 4. Refer to the chart below. Look down the left column and locate the interest rate you expect to pay. Line this up with the amortization period of your choice. (Most first-time buyers choose the 25-year amortization). 5. Multiply this figure by the amount you need to borrow. Divide by 1,000. 6. Add to this your estimated monthly heating costs and monthly property taxes. 7. If this figure is equal to or less than one-third of your gross monthly income (calculated in Step 2), you’ll qualify for a mortgage on your dream home. Bear in mind that this is a rough estimate. If you have several other large loans already, you may qualify for less. Also, banks and trust companies vary in their policies. The best way to know what you can afford is to go to the lending institution of your choice and get pre-qualified.
