Barry Brown REALTOR®

NOBODY IN THE WORLD SELLS MORE REAL ESTATE THAN RE/MAX®

Lorene MacGregor REALTOR®

Elegant High Efficient Home

THE SUIT MAKES THE MAN You signed a contract with a real estate agent and the ‘FOR SALE’ sign is staked on your front lawn. As your agent begins his or her work, so should you. Remember, when it comes to a house, the suit makes the man... in other words, the appearance of your house affects how quickly your agent will find a buyer. A potential buyer must have a good impression of your property on the first visit. For this to occur, your house must inspire confidence. Often, the small details make all the difference. It is suggested that you put yourself in the shoes of a potential buyer as you visit your own property. What are the things that you dislike about your house? Start your visit with... the sidewalk. What

do you think of the exterior of your property? Is the paint on the doors and windows in good shape? Does the veranda look tired? Is your lawn littered with bicycles, equipment, and remnants from your last weeding session? If a good impression of the exterior is important, the interior look of your house is critical! Continue to examine your home with the same critical eye. When you receive potential buyers, be sure to eliminate all cooking, disinfectant, and strong perfume odors. If you own pets, pay attention to the litter boxes. If you smoke, it is best to hide the ashtrays and thoroughly air out the house. In short, keep in mind that if your home appears neglected, the buyer is left with the impression that all maintenance of your property has also been neglected.

Designers are pretty unanimous in saying that mouldings have become as important as paint, furniture fabric, and accessories. Forget the idea that they are the reserve of old-fashioned rooms; according to decorators, mouldings are now a part of modern, original interiors. These days, manufacturers are offering a broader variety of decorative mouldings in different types of wood and in

If you decide to do the work yourself, let the mouldings acclimatize for a day or two in the room where they’ll be installed. For hardwood mouldings, it is advisable to drill the holes in them before installation in order to avoid cracking, particularly if you are using a hammer instead of a compressor.

MDF (wood fibre), both of which can be installed easily by home owners. Although the trend is towards outsize mouldings, balance is essential. For example, in a 10’ x 10’ room, a crown moulding of 3 1/2” will finish the room perfectly. If the room is substantially bigger, a larger crown moulding would be more suitable. Mouldings can also be used to lower a wall that appears too high by placing the strips about 6” from the ceiling.

THE ADVANTAGE OF CROWN MOULDING Installing a crown moulding adds a decorative element and will also help you save both time and money: it means not having to plaster joints in the corners of ceilings!

Preparing your home for winter Winter is coming and homeowners had better get busy before the weather decides to give them a hard time!

Here’s a reminder list of a few important jobs to do: • Have your chimney swept by a professional once or twice a year, especially if you use a wood stove. • Inspect the outside of the foundation and any brickwork. Seal any cracks to prevent water infiltration. The freezing and thawing cycle can cause concrete to break-up. • Exterior water pipes should also get some attention. They should be drained, shut off and wrapped to protect them from freezing and bursting. • Clean the gutters and make sure they’re in good condition and fixed firmly to the house. • Have a look at the roof. Are there any shingles missing? Are some of them damaged? Applying tar may be necessary to avoid water infiltration. • Check the draught proofing around doors and windows and replace any if necessary. Seal air leaks around all openings — such as light switches, for example. • Inspect smoke and carbon monoxide alarms. Check the batteries and change them, if necessary. • This is also the time of year when temporary car shelters start to invade the streets. Before installing yours, ensure that it conforms to municipal regulations. It’s also time to sign a snow removal contract if you feel like taking a break from shovelling this winter. For a worry-free winter in your warm, cozy home! Staying warm throughout the winter requires a little work from homeowners.

Move before the winter The buying or selling of a house is one of the most important transactions of our lives. Entrusting this transaction to a professional who knows the market will enable you to experience this big step worry-free. If you missed the early summer peak, a real estate agent can help you find or sell a house before winter. Real estate agents see to all the details, from managing viewings to signing contracts. They can give extensive visibility to properties being sold, and they can help prospective home buyers find the house they are looking for. Agents guide their clients and keep them informed on all important aspects of the sale or purchase of a home, including the type of property desired, the characteristics of the area, and the proximity of services.

WE HAVE AMAZING PROPERTY! At a purchase price of $300,000 this property is more than $150,000 below assessed value! With over 13 acres level arable land, a 5 bdrm, 3 bath home, 1620 sq.ft. per floor, built in 1999, fenced, hay shed and greenhouse, this is a great price. MLS#K203843

If prospective buyers or sellers would like to know more about the environmental considerations involving a property, real estate agents are equipped to help their clients find out more. If, for example, you are selling and want to know whether you should have the radon levels in your house checked before putting it on the market, your agent will be able to suggest the resources you need to get it done.

Creating a guest room for Christmas Do you remember Advent? Is starts in November. Think of the beginning of Advent as the time to begin preparing your home for Christmas visits, as family members from far away might soon be knocking on your door. What about transforming your home office into the perfect multifunctional space for overnight visitors? To get a good start on your project before the holidays, clear out the room quickly to get a sharper idea of what has to be done. Then you’ll be able to plan the layout and reorganize the contents. If you keep your office space clustered to one side of the room, the other side can be arranged as the spare room.

Create a cozy atmosphere in your new guest room according to the season.

You have two choices as far as beds are concerned: a sofa bed or a Murphy wall bed. The former allows for an important gain in time and space but, for the comfort of your guests, it’s far better to invest in a model equipped with a real mattress. Make sure you lay down on the opened bed at the store before you buy it; if it’s not comfortable for you there, it certainly won’t be for overnight guests. A Murphy wall bed is a great space saver, as it folds or retracts like magic behind a fake closet door or partition. In both cases, think about organizing the remaining space so you can unfold the bed or sofa quickly and easily once your guests arrive.

Update the bathroom

Lastly, don’t neglect the décor of this bedroom. A peaceful and agreeable atmosphere for your guests will make for a good visit all around. Natural fibres and light tones are suitable, all while accentuating a feeling of relaxation. Opt for monochrome paint in neutral colours, such as light grey, cream, or mocha. This choice of colours will allow you to combine different styles and colours of bedding and amaze your visitors with different decorative accessories according to the season. Take advantage of the Christmas holidays to add fur covers, candles, or a vase filled with sparkling Christmas tree balls.
