Have you had a Buyer put in an Offer without viewing the property?  It happened to me over the weekend. I spent the afternoon showing them several condo units. There was one that they liked but it was already sold and waiting for deposit. So, we went back to the office to chat and see what else was listed that met their criteria; and there was a lisiting …. 0 days on the market, ie: just listed that day ……  My Buyers wanted to see the pictures ….. showed it to them …….  I was surprised .....  when he said, lets put in an offer. I tried to book a late showing …… he said, "I am a ’dynamic person’" …… "I want you to submit the offer now; I don’t need to view the unit!!!" …. I did as instructed, and he wanted to offer more, than what I suggested! The offer was accepted within hours.

You shop for a home. You find one you like. You make an offer — conditional on a satisfactory home inspection.Okay so far.Then the inspector discovers a problem with the home that may require an expensive repair or renovation. Perhaps the frame in the front door is cracked; or there's a leak in the roof; or the furnace is due to be replaced.What do you do?You don't want to pass up an opportunity to purchase what could be your dream home. On the other hand, you don't want to have to deal with potentially costly repairs.First, keep in mind that you did the right thing.It's always a good idea to get a home inspected by a professional before the offer is finalized. A qualified home inspector will go over the property with a fine tooth comb, top to bottom, inside and out, inspecting the stru...

Downtown Toronto rental market …….  Yesterday, when I was in the office, late in the evening, one of my colleagues was also there .…..his wife was calling, to find out when he would be home ……. He was busy working on 3 offers on a rental listing!  He told me it was a 1 bedroom condo unit with no parking ……. I shared with him that I went through a similar situation last weekend. The showings started on Friday and on Saturday, I had 3 offers. It leased for full price.   This same rental listing of mine in 2014 was on the market for a few weeks before it leased; for under asking price.  Right now, the Downtown Toronto rental market is very active.

There’s a famous saying in the real estate business: “Location, location, location”. It simply means that where your home is located — the neighbourhood — is just as important to potential buyers as the features of the property itself.Sellers often make the mistake of creating a long list of home features while ignoring neighbourhood features. They tout the spacious kitchen, the newly renovated bathrooms and the gorgeous backyard deck, but say little about the area.So when you’re ready to sell your home, sit down and create two lists: home features and neighbourhood features. Buyers want to know both.On that neighbourhood features list, include: Location of schools and daycare centres. Major retailers and shopping centres. Proximity to major commuting routes. Theatres, night clubs and o...
