Bank of Canada Rate Change - Does It Affect You?

Yesterday, the Bank of Canada announced the first rate increase to the daily rate it charges banks from 0.25% to 0.5%.  Does this affect you?  That depends on whether you have a mortgage or a line of credit, and if so, what type.  If you have a fixed rate mortgage, then no - it does not affect you, at least until your mortgage is up for renewal.  If you have a variable rate mortgage ...

Selling Your Home - It's A Business Decision

Over the last few months, there have been occasional articles in the media about the Competition Bureau advising the Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA) that they would be taken before the Competition Tribunal to determine if the rules surrounding postings to the MLS® were anti-competitive. Talks between CREA and the Competition Bureau were proceeding smoothly, and then the Competition Bureau ...

Smoke Detector Alarms - Have You Checked Yours Lately?

BEEEEP, BEEEEEP, BEEEEEEP, BEEEEEEEEP!  It might be annoying, especially when you've burned the toast for the 4th time this week, but smoke alarms save lives.  A few days ago in the city of Toronto, a father and his young daughter were both killed due to a house fire.  And today on the news, I listened to the announcer introduce a representative from the Ontario Fire Marshal who proceeded ...

A Taste of Downtown Brampton -

Today marks the start of a mid-winter restaurant festival "A Taste of Downtown Brampton".  Restaurants in the downtown area of Brampton are offering lunch and dinner fixed-price menus for the next couple of weeks, and I encourage all of us to support these local businesses!  Restaurants with diverse cuisine from Italian (Fanzorelli's, Mount Vesuvio, etc) to Japanese (Sushi House) ...

Making the Right Decision

I've been working with a really nice family lately showing them a few homes for sale in the Brampton area (actually, just three!) and talking with them about the process of moving house.  The reason they've been planning on selling - and downsizing -  is to save a bit of money as the economy recovers, plus their kids will be teenagers within the next few years and we all know teenagers ...

Real Estate Market Update - west GTA (Brampton, Mississauga, Milton)

Happy New Year, everyone! It's January 6, 2010 as I write this blog, and it's very interesting to see how the market has changed over the last year, eh?  At this time a year ago, everyone had gone into hibernation, and adopted a "wait and see" attitude with regards to the economy and the housing market. One year later, and the market has changed drastically!  Prices are going up ...

Century 21 - Real Estate Commercial (video)

I was surfing www.youtube.com today, and thought it might be interesting to see if there were any Century 21 videos.  Well, I found a whole lot of them - many of them hilarious!  Some of them were from real estate sales representatives showing off their listings (a cool idea), others were from clients showing off the new home they bought with help from their Century 21 REALTOR, and then ...
