Housing Market Has the prospect of moving into a bigger and better home been in your plans from the day you first bought your “starter” home? Well, now may be just the right time to make it happen. You may be surprised to learn that the cost of moving up is within your means. The equity you have already built up in your current home can often be sufficient for the down payment for your next home. And, with today’s attractive mortgage rates, carrying charges need not be much larger than what you are paying now. A REALTOR can help you calculate the carrying costs on a “move up” home.

CHANGING NEEDS The desire to move to a larger home is often the result of changing needs for you and your family. A new child is on the way and you need a nursery; the children are growing and need their own rooms and more space to play; you’re tired of scrambling for a place to park on the street and want your own driveway; you need more space to build a home office now that you are self-employed; or maybe you just need a change of scenery. There are as many reasons as there are different lifestyles. Whatever your reasons, moving up to a new home can intensify the joys of home ownership. There are both practical and emotional results of moving up to a better home. On the practical side, the equity in your home will continue to grow and the value of a bigger and better home will be ultimately greater over time. On the emotional side, the pride of ownership in a bigger house will probably be even greater than when you bought your first home.
ASK A REALTOR FOR HELP As will every major decision, the key component is thoughtful planning. Your options can be confusing at times but a REALTOR can help you make the right choices. Location, of course, will be one of the first choices you will need to make. There are almost as many individual choices on location as there are homes. If you want to move closer to the urban core you can be sure that there is somebody out there who is just as eager to move to the suburbs. If you want a house on a bigger lot to enjoy gardening, there’s someone looking for a smaller lot which requires less maintenance. With access to the Multiple Listing Service®) (MLS® ), a REALTOR can not only help you sell your present home for the best price possible, but also provide you with a customized list of homes for sale that meet your needs, wants and budget. He or she can then arrange for you to view the homes that appeal to you the most. If you are thinking of moving up to meet changes in circumstances and lifestyle, contact a REALTOR today for expert advice.

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. 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.
Cleaning Up The Homestead Virtually all buyers are on the lookout for one thing — a clean home. Many will simply walk away if a home looks uncared for and, at the very least, an untidy home will fetch a lower selling 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
$570,000
Gary Brown
Work with your REALTOR
There are certain items that must be repaired if there are problems. A leaky roof, for example, must be fixed. Any electrical problems will have to be addressed. Furnaces, water heaters and plumbing also fall into this category.
Stunning unobstructed south-facing ocean & mountain views from almost all rooms & the private patio over a 180 degree arc! Custom built 4 bdrm, 5 bthrm home w/more than 800 sq ft for future development (suite?). Watch the eagles catch the updraft & soar. Ships pass every day. No need for drapes here. Walking trails, lake to fish & swim in & Olympic View Golf Course nearby. Easy maintenance lot w/fabulous, private patio, deck & stream/fish pond. Put this on your must-see-Saturday list! Pemberton Holmes Ltd.
$559,900 including GST! Gorgeous brand new 5 bed house w legal suite in a brand new subdivision! Features incl a spacious great rm w/ vaulted ceilings & cozy gas FP, stunning kitchen w/ over height wood cabinets w/crown mouldings, light valences, tiled backsplash & granite counters! MLS 333060.
When your home is for sale, it’s often more than just the purchase price and location that will make or break a deal. Making your home look its very best and presenting it as a desirable place to live are also very important.
Other areas may not need major repairs but will 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.
Outside & In Take a close look at the state of your yard. If you are showing your home in the summer, trees and shrubs should be pruned and your lawn kept neat. In the fall, rake leaves regularly and in the winter ensure the walks and driveway are kept clear of any snow or ice.
To Renovate Or Not To Renovate NATURAL HEALTHY HOME OPEN HOUSE SUNDAY 2-4 7708 WEST COAST ROAD This home is a beautiful example of a “natural healthy home” built with craftsmanship & care. A heavy mortise and tenon timber frame forms the core of the home, crowned with a sky lit mandala ceiling of shoji paper and wrapped in breathable exterior walls made of light straw clay. With all natural materials and finishes, this home is designed as a healthy sanctuary for the chemically and electro magnetically sensitive. The interior walls are all finished with natural clay plaster, which improves the indoor air quality and looks great. Asking $740,000. 3 bedrooms 2 bath. 1830 sqft. MLS 338070.

Selling your home alone? Ask yourself a few questions first. You might consider selling your home yourself with the hope of saving on the real estate commission. Before you go it alone, ask yourself the following 5 questions: 1. Do you have sufficient knowledge of evolving market conditions to price your home properly? 2. Can you screen out unqualified prospects who will waste your time (and maybe money)? 3. Are you a good negotiator? Can you avoid being taken advantage of by a savvy buyer? 4. Are you conversant with the laws and regulations that affect property ownership and sales? 5. Can you draw up a legally enforceable contract to close the sale of your house? Buying and selling your house is likely one of the largest financial transactions you will make in your life. It just makes sense to work with your REALTOR速.
