Canada’s Anti-Terrorism Act: The Need of the Hour The end to the Jehadist terrorism that began just in the beginning of the 21st century is nowhere to be seen. Instead, it has spread to every nook and corner of the world. No country, no society in this world has gone unscathed, so-much-so that even the US-led war against it has not been able to bear any tangible results. What has happened is that America, after the 9/11 tragedy, has become secure against any other terrorist activity. Young people in the Western countries are getting influenced by Islamic terrorist Jehad. Thus, a couple of such incidents have taken place in Canada, as well. Canada, due to its soft rules has been considered a haven for terrorists from all over the world. The Canadian government, too, has become cautious after the attack on the Parliament Hill.
endanger the security of Canada. Today, the internet has become a haven for the anti-social elements. Just one example will do: Some websites contain unlimited know-how on topics that can contribute to decimating humanity, such as “How to Easily Make a Bomb while at Home”. Remember that the bombs used in the Boston Marathon are reported to have been made, using domestic utensils like cookers. It would be worthwhile to mention here that Canada is a member of an international organization, named, “The Five Eyes” which, besides Canada, includes Australia, New Zealand, UK, and USA. The new Bill, C-44, authorizes CSIS to obtain, from Canada’s friendly countries, information on people suspected of terrorism.
The Bill, intended to curb terrorism, that is going to be presented in the Parliament by the Federal government is the talk of the town these days. The Bill, titled as ‘Protection of Canada from Terrorists Act’ delegates such powers to the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) and Police that can appropriately deal with the terrorism growing within Canada. The objective of this Bill is to curb the powers that, by inciting people’s feelings, encourage terrorist activities. The Act by the Canadian government has become the key need of the hour.
Prime Minster Harper says that terrorism is not something that happens at far-away places; rather, it has become a fact that can happen anytime and anywhere in our environment. Last year, during Autumn, two most hideous incidents took place in Canada. In one incident, Corporal Nathan Philip was gunned down by a Jehadist terrorist in the Canadian Parliament complex. In the second one, an army man was killed by having been run over by a Jehadist terrorist’s vehicle. The terrorists who brought about these two incidents, were trained within Canada. How long can Canada afford to close its eyes on The objective of the anti-terrorism Act such incidents? is to empower the security agencies with the ability to shut down the websites that

It was also chosen for fostering a work climate that encourages and enables its employees to do meaningful work contributing to the positive development of surrounding communities.
“The university puts a lot of emphasis on teaching, which I really enjoy,” says Bertram, who won UFV’s Teaching Excellence award in 2011. “It’s a part of my job I’m really passionate about.”

and alumni, and this helps them feel connected to our community.” UFV’s campus locations in the scenic Fraser Valley, with the “agriburban” feel of being close to nature but handy to shopping, restaurants, and cultural and recreational opportunities, are also a draw for potential employees, says Griffiths. That, along with a housing market that’s more affordable than urban centres like Vancouver, helps draw employees. The campus themselves offer employees a range of amenities to add to the lifestyle advantages. There is easy access to a library, season of theatre, athletic events, continuing education courses, free tuition for credit courses, a fitness centre and classes, guest lectures, forums, art exhibitions, and more. Special employee events at UFV include a welcome-back barbecue in August, new employee orientations, long-service recognition awards, retirement dinners (which function as mini reunions of past retirees), and Halloween celebrations. Employees also have the chance to improve their skills and knowledge at UFV with a variety of opportunities including career development and progression initiatives, workshops, tuition waivers, annual professional development funding, in-house workshops, and longer-term sabbaticals and educational leaves. UFV is also culturally diverse, which reflects the surrounding communities. In 2013, the university was honoured with an award during the Fraser Valley Cultural Diversity recognition event.

An interactive map and improved patient intake process are two steps government is taking to make it faster and easier for families to get child and youth mental health (CYMH) and substance use services in B.C.
Feedback from families who have received services in the past has indicated that it can be difficult to navigate the complex mental health system to find the services they need. Parents and youth can now visit the new interactive online map to find supports and services close to home, including the addresses of local service providers and locations of mental health intake offices that can see children, youth and their families without an appointment. The map lists approximately 350 services for children and youth throughout the province and includes information about: • • •
Ministry of Children and Family Development CYMH services. Ministry of Health child and youth substance use services. Related services provided through: • Local health authorities. • Provincial health authorities. • Contracted Aboriginal agencies.
Minister of Children and Family Development Stephanie Cadieux and Minister of Health Terry Lake officially launched this new resource, including a demonstration of the map’s features at an event today at the HOpe Centre at Lions Gate Hospital. The map, coupled with a new CYMH intake clinic
process that has reduced wait times for families by as much as 12 weeks, is helping children and youth get the help they need sooner. In January 2014, the Ministry of Children and Family Development launched a revised intake process for CYMH services at 20 of its offices on a trial basis. The new intake clinic allows clients and their families to meet directly with a clinician and discuss a plan for services or treatment during their initial visit. This helps ensure that families know immediately if they qualify for ministry CYMH services. Over the first six months of the trial, more than 95% of respondents to a client satisfaction poll reported they were ‘satisfied’ or ‘very satisfied’ with the services they received. Thanks to the new model, wait times have been drastically reduced and clients can now find out if they are eligible for child and youth mental health services, usually the same day as their assessment, compared to the previous wait time of up to 12 weeks. As a result of this success, the ministry is expanding its revised intake process to the remaining 52 offices around the province by April 2015. The online map and improved intake process are a direct response to client feedback and a recommendation outlined in the Representative for Children and Youth’s April 2013 report Still Waiting: First-hand Experiences with Youth Mental Health Services in B.C. to make it easier for families to navigate and access services within the mental health and substance use system.

ASK BHARATHI Question: Everyone always talks about RRSPs, but what is an RRSP and why should I contribute?
Bharathi Says: That is a very common question! A Registered Retirement Savings Plan is a savings vehicle that you establish to save for your retirement. You receive a tax deduction on the amount you contribute based on your current tax bracket. The growth of your investment within an RRSP is tax sheltered. Canadians are living longer, but they also retire younger. An RRSP can help finance your lifestyle in retirement age, it can help you through difficult financial times and encourage you to save during your higher income earning years. Everyone’s personal financial situation is unique. It’s important you understand why you are contributing to an RRSP and what you are buying within it. Consider sitting down with a qualified financial advisor to help you with your decision making.
Bharathi Sandhu, BBA, Financial Advisor Raymond James Ltd. Suite 200-2881 Garden Street, Abbotsford BC V2T 4X1 Do you have a question? Email it to me! Bharathi.Sandhu@raymondjames.ca
We are not tax advisors and we recommend that clients seek independent advice from a professional advisor on tax-related matters. Raymond James Ltd., Member - Canadian Investor Protection Fund.
Message to Surrey Bashers Dear Editor,
even an official Facebook page designed to do nothing but make fun of and bash SurSurrey has social problems and challenges rey and the people of Surrey. This crosses like any growing metropolis. It has been a red line because the people of an entire the butt of jokes for decades. Time for that city are impacted unfairly. to change! Surrey is soon to be the largest city in B.C. and one of the best places in Many people in Surrey are hard working families and just trying to get by. The last Canada to invest. thing these families and their children need It is interesting that people tarnish all of is your social stigma thrown at them. Surrey due to some of the social problems found largely in Whalley and perhaps If Surrey was so bad there would not be Newton. People do not tarnish all of Van- over 1000 new residents moving to Surrey couver due to some of the social problems every month and Surrey would not be one found in the Downtown Eastside. There is of the fastest growing and developing cities no comparison between what is happening in the country. in Whalley and what is happening in the Just walk around the new Surrey City Downtown Eastside, and yet this societal Centre and you will feel the pulse of an discrimination exists against the people of exuberant city in transition with the new Surrey by uninformed locals. City Hall, Civic Plaza, Surrey Central Library, SFU Surrey and Kwantlen moving into the new Marriot Hotel building, not to mention Central City Shopping Mall and Holland Park, as well as numerous new affordable residential high-rises climbing towards the sky. Furthermore, there are major companies and organizations such as the RCMP, Fraser Health, Coast Capital Some of the comments about Surrey in the Savings, and Canada Revenue Agency news media and social media is bordering all having major offices in the evolving on “geographic hate speech.” There is downtown core. As far as I am concerned clean up your own house and your own city before bashing others. Have we forgotten that the Downtown Eastside is home to some of the poorest postal codes in the entire country, despite being located next to some of the richest?

Government accepts recommendations to strengthen BCUC Government is taking action to implement the recommendations of the independent task force appointed to review the British Columbia Utilities Commission (BCUC) so that the commission can resume its role of setting BC Hydro rates by the third year of government’s 10-Year Rates Plan for BC Hydro. The review was launched in April 2014 in response to concerns raised by customer groups and utilities about the BCUC’s ability to deliver clear and timely decisions. Government appointed an independent task force to review the commission with the goal of improving its effectiveness and efficiency. The changes recommended by the task force will lead to a stronger and more efficient regulatory process.

Townline Hill Break and Enter Incidents The Townline Hill area of Abbotsford has been the location of 19 Break and Enter incidents between November 5th, 2014 and February 1st, 2015 (see map). APD Investigators and the Crime Analysis Unit believe that a small number of individuals are responsible for these crimes. A variety of items have been stolen, but most frequently cash and high-end jewelry were targeted. The majority of the break-ins have occurred between 5:00 pm and 9:00 pm and the thieves usually force entry to a rear window or rear sliding glass door. The Abbotsford Police Department is encouraging citizens to report suspicious activity and to be diligent with their home security. Anyone with information about these incidents is asked to call the APD at 604-859-5225, text us at 222973 (abbypd) or call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

New equipment helps Lower Teachers and students to benefit Mainland trades students get skilled from new innovation strategy
Three public post-secondary institutions in the Lower Mainland will receive a total of $1,103,048 to buy new trades training equipment that supports students entering in-demand occupations critical to the economy.
British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT) will receive $421,500 for new trades training equipment. Examples include a CNC lathe that will be used in the machinist and millwright programs, a motor grader that will be used in the heavy mechanic programs, welding equipment that will be used in the welding and pipefitting programs, and fall arrest lifelines for the carpentry programs. Kwantlen Polytechnic University will receive $325,274 for trades training equipment to support pipe fitter, electrical, millwright and construction craft worker students and apprentices.

The heart of the strategy is the K-12 Innovation Partnership, which will be a community of practice focussed on bridging the theory and practice of personalized learning. The partnership will be composed of identified schools from throughout the province that are interested in developing new approaches.
The $1,103,048 in 2014-15 for trades training equipment is part of B.C.’s Skills for Jobs Blueprint commitment of $185 million over three years for trades training infrastructure and equipment at public post-secondary institutions. Funding for equipment builds on the announcement in July 2014 of 404 additional critical trades Each school in the partnership will be teamed with a post-secondary institutraining seats at the three institutions.

The partnership will also proactively communicate actions and outcomes to encourage the adoption of successful approaches across the K-12 sector. The next step is to establish the governance structure, including a working group of representative organizations for superintendents, principals and vice-principals, and teachers. The working group will establish the partnership criteria and work with school districts and post-secondary institutions to identify participating schools between now and April 2015. On an ongoing basis, the working group will manage the supports, provide expert direction, and identify future policy changes.

You can start to become more comfortable in your mind with what should take priority in life. This can include settling on something you have had doubts about recently. If you suspect somebody is more determined than they show to do things their way, you are probably right. Hold back and give things time to surface.
From now to mid March you need to settle your mind on commitments you either should accept or are prepared to make. You might also become more aware of obligations that have been pushed your way since early January. Anything that causes friction or difficulty when it comes to your priorities needs questioning.
Any visions of the future you have been considering since the year began can begin a more concrete stage from now to mid March. Whether your process has been balanced enough where connected obligations are concerned is a different matter. You will find out between May and early July when action starts to take place.
Don’t try to work out the whys and wherefores of other people – that will start to become more obvious from mid March. Focus on the actions you need to take into the future to generate enjoyment in situations that involve you, whether or not other people support this. Those that do will be people you can rely on long term.
Anybody who has been in two minds since January is either now ready to decide on how they move forward or you need to push them in that direction from now to mid March. Tied up in things might be a desire on their part to limit your freedom. If you haven’t been complying this might have contributed greatly to their indecision.
You can be at your very best by now realising you have the ability to move forward in a very logical manner with anything you have had to analyse and perhaps hold yourself back on since early January. Someone might need you more than they care to admit, no matter how dominating their manner may seem to be. Progress slowly.
Any retreat you might have decided on or had to accept with pleasurable activities of late will now be reversed. Modification might be the answer rather than complete withdrawal. Bothersome daily routines won’t go away – they need to be accepted as a fact of life at the moment. You will move on from them having a tiring effect.
This is a good period for you to become aware that the time has come for some things that might have always been a pleasure need to go by the wayside. This does not mean all pleasure goes out of your life but a different foundation needs to be established based on where you now find yourself in life. Work on this to mid March.
Anything you have been putting your energies into to get the groundwork established since mid January can now result in a clearer objective in your mind. The more prepared you are to commit yourself diligently the more clear-minded you will become. By mid March you will be ready, willing and able to move to the next stage.
You should find you could now move on from any worries you might have had in connection to finances since early January. To a large extent you need to ignore encouragement from others to spend money on things you really can’t afford or don’t need. Tread a steady path from now to mid March and you will be set.
Life has encouraged you to focus on yourself since early January through not only considering the present but the past and how to plan to move forward in the future. This has been quite an important time. From now to mid March you should feel encouraged to move forward with your own ideas and thoughts that suit your needs.
You could feel you have been spending too much time mulling things over since early January. It has had its benefits though you may not begin to see why until mid March onwards. Don’t let frustration get the better of you this week. Get to and do some sort of physical work as a distraction – you can get a lot done and be happy.

Did Om Puri Dye His Hair For Lovemaking Scene With Mallika
Mallika Sherawat's big mouth has got her into trouble yet again. This time, she has offended none other than her costar Om Puri. Apparently Mallika thought it very funny to comment on Comedy Nights with Kapil that Om had dyed his hair before doing the lovemaking scene with her. And Om hasn’t taken kindly to this remark, accosting Mallika and asking her how she could have said something like this. In his words, “She said it was a mistake. What kind of mistake is this? You put your costar (far more experienced than you) up for ridicule on national television?” Now we don’t see other top heroes wanting to work with Mallika in a hurry. After all, she might expose their well kept physical secrets!!!
amends her voice for ‘Roy’
As we all know that Jacqueline Fernandez will be playing a double role in the upcoming film ‘Roy’. She had to modulate her voice for her second character of the film. Talking about her different roles, Jacqueline said that the film ‘Roy’ has many dialogues and director, Vikramjit Singh wanted to make it with sync sound, therefore it became more difficult for

Salim Khan is quite miffed and has refused to accept the Padma Shri honour, the fourth highest civilian award in the country. Speaking to a tabloid, he says, “Now they are offering me the award that the others received much earlier. My contribution to cinema has been much more than what is being offered to me (as an acknowledgment). So, I have refused to accept it.” On the other hand, SRK thinks
he doesn’t deserve an award for his act in Happy New Year! A daily recently quizzed Khan on him missing from the nominations in the Filmfare Awards’ list. The actor's response was, “I haven't acted well enough. I know there are seven others or rather 70 other people who are better than me. I cannot be nominated for acting in Happy New Year. Yes, the film has done very well but as an actor I don't think I deserve to be nominated.”
Sunny Leone might be fuming right now. The confused Sunny has unnecessarily been dragged into the Vikram BhattSapna Pabbi battle! Rumour is that Vikram and Sapna have not been on good terms post their fight about the lovemaking scenes in their film, Khamoshiyan. But apparently the battle doesn’t end there. Sapna has her own version of the problem and is not too pleased about what Vikram said. She says she didn’t chicken out at the last minute but was rather unaware of the extent of the bold scenes. The fiery young actress says, “Vikram Bhatt is a filmmaker and not a passion peddler and I did not expect them to have such strong, bold scenes in the film. I did them because I realised that the film demanded it. However, Mr. Bhatt should know that I’m no Sunny Leone.” Wonder what Sunny’s reply to this will be!!!
Aditya Roy Kapur too opts out of Milan Talkies
her. She further said that the biggest challenge for her was to master separate ways of speaking for her identical character; Ayesha (filmmaker) and Tia (art enthusiast). Both her characters have completely different styles of speaking because the characters aren’t twins. The film also casts Ranbir Kapoor and Arjun Rampal.
Tigmanshu Dhulia’s Milan Talkies has been in news for its impromptu changes in casting since a while now and while finally, Aditya Roy Kapur and Shraddha Kapoor were finalized for the movie, here is another change. The latest buzz is that Aditya has apparently opted out of the movie, as he had doubts about playing another not-so-urban character soon after his last dud Daawat-E-Ishq. Before
Aditya, the duo of Imran Khan and Priyanka Chopra were finalized for the film. While Imran walked out of the film owing to his differences with Ekta Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra too decided to quit. Post that, Shahid Kapoor was signed and later, Tigmanshu had even confirmed Varun Dhawan's presence. However, none of the above associations seemed to work out. Now, let’s wait and watch as to who finally makes it to the cast of the film.

Hundreds of Port Metro truckers to lose jobs as a result of new policy Port Metro Vancouver has formulated a new licensing system for truckers. Under this policy only 1450 truckers of 68 companies will have access to the Port work. Truckers not working with these companies are frustrated. They held a rally the other day to express their anguish at being thrown out of the container industry with which they have been working for long. They described the Port Metro Vancouver’s action as dictatorial. Their argument is that finding an alternative work is not easy. Sudden loss of work is going to create hardships for their families. On the other hand Port vice-president Peter Xotta said it was a necessary step . He further said that new system would bring stability.
Vancouver councillor seeks ‘dark sky’ to get rid of light pollution Vancouver councillor Elizabeth Ball wants that light in the night sky be reduced so that residents’ circadian rhythm is not disturbed. In support of her demand she cites the report from American Medical Association that shows light pollution affects a city’s residents by disturbing their sleeps. She said that flood lights are OK in sports stadiums but not in the city streets.
Capilano University students sift their own garbage About 150 students at Capilano University sift their garbage to find electronics, batteries, organic matter and construction material. This sort of audit of garbage was started in 2011 and in the first year of this campaign 69% organics were sorted out. Director of facilities at the university Susan Doig says that their goal is to minimize the organic substances going in the garbage.

Huge development to take place at Livingston Avenue and Maclure Road corner A developer is expected to go ahead with his plan of constructing a large complex at the corner of Livingstone Ave. and Maclure Road corner after he gets an approval from the Abbotsford City Council. The development will see two-storey buildings on the east side of the lot. However the western side will have six-storey buildings. The developer will have to meet some conditions including a payment of almost $350,000 to the city’s parkland acquisition fund and $200,000 for habitat compensation in Garden Park. City will also have to allay the concern of the neighbours about traffic congestion resulting from the expected development.

Adult monthly pass will cost $100 whereas for students it will be $85. The project will be funded by Abbotsford, Chilliwack and BC Transit.

Avoiding Top Relocation Mistakes On one hand, moving to another city can be an exciting adventure. On the other hand, it could be a stressful time if things go wrong. This report explains the 9 most common mistakes when people relocate. When you plan ahead, you will avoid these pitfalls and ensure your move is handled smoothly. 1. Lack of information Contact the chamber of commerce, tourism department, municipality or library in your new community. At the same time, compare salaries, cost of living, taxes and housing prices. 2. Home not priced and ready for showing Before you sell your home, complete repairs. Often, it is the little things, like chipped paint, worn caulking and sticky doors that potential buyers notice. Have your home cleaned, including carpets. Have a Comparable Market Analysis (CMA) completed by one or two Real
Estate Professionals to ensure a competitive price. 3. Not planning for temporary housing between destinations You may need to set up temporary housing arrangements until the closing of your new home. This could take from a few days to a few months. If you need interim housing for a few days, perhaps staying in a hotel is the simplest solution. For housing longer than a month, you may want to consider an apartment with a short-term lease. 4. Not being pre-approved Sellers are usually eager to negotiate with someone who has immediate buying power. 5. Not completing a professional home inspection This applies for both the home you are selling and the one you are buying, cont’d on page R3

although who pays for the inspection (buyer or seller) is negotiable in each separate contract. 6. Insufficient time to handle children’s concerns During relocation a child could feel lost, sad, angry or confused. Sometimes, under the stress of completing so many details, the temptation is to get settled as quickly as possible so everyone feels at home. Talk to your children during the process. They will feel safe, cared for and comfortable. Acquaint your children with the new neighborhood. If possible, have them meet new teachers and other children in their new school before moving. Try not to move in the middle of a school year. 7. Not being prepared for culture shock Sometimes, when people move from familiar surroundings to a new community, culture shock can manifest. Symptoms can range from headaches, stomach aches, impatience, sleep prob-

lems to anger. These feelings are all normal and do pass over time. It may be helpful to incorporate the old with the new. This could include taking classes, joining clubs and pursuing activities you once enjoyed. It takes about six to ten months for someone to feel “at home” in a new community. 8. Not using local, licensed professionals Every area is different. Understanding the communities that make up your destination city, a Real Estate Professional can find you a home that matches your needs. You will save time and energy by having a professional do the work for you. 9. Not reading your employer’s relocation policies Read your employer’s relocation policies carefully, for the amount of reimbursement. Keep good records and copies of your receipts, as moving expenses are deductible under certain conditions established by Revenue Canada.
Behind the scenes of closing day Closing day is the day when all the parts of buying and selling a home come together. Each party’s lawyer will have successfully completed the details required to ensure all legal aspects are covered. On this day, you will take possession of the home, get the keys and perhaps even move in. It is also a busy time for the seller, as they will likely be in the midst of moving. However, before that day arrives, there are closing details to complete to ensure the smooth transfer of the property. Lawyer review A lawyer represents your interests, and ensures that the legal documentation is properly completed. Your lawyer receives a copy of the offer. He or she reviews the conditions of the sale, the contract and the information for title transfer and registration. Every condition on the offer must be met by closing date. It is your lawyer’s responsibility to search the title of the property (at the registry office) to ensure that the home is purchased without any legal problems and that there are no liens on the home or the personal property of the seller that forms part of the agreement. Your lawyer also needs to contact the municipality for taxes, zoning compliance (permits, use, setbacks, pool,
fencing, compliance with subdivision agreements, etc.) and public utilities (hydro, gas, etc.) within the time stated in the offer, to ensure that no taxes are outstanding and the home meets with established guidelines. Preparing a statement of adjustment is also part of your lawyer’s duties. This confirms the selling price, adjustments and the balance (less the deposit you provided with the offer). The lending institution will also draw up a certified cheque for your lawyer to be held in trust. With the purchase price of a resale home, the closing is always “subject to usual adjustments.” This means that any amount that the seller has already prepaid will be adjusted so that the home buyer pays the excess amount back to the seller and vice versa. These adjustments can include: municipal property and school taxes, monthly condominium maintenance fees, first and last month’s rental for rental properties that may be in the home, utilities, such as hydro and water including GST. Your lawyer will prepare a statement of these settlement charges. Surveys and Inspections Your lender requires an up-to-date land survey. This document records the locacont’d on page R9

tion of the home on the lot as prepared by a certified land surveyor. It records any changes to the exterior of the home since construction. Any additions such a deck or building additions could affect your taxes, property assessments and zoning restrictions.
efficiency, the inspector can give you a good idea of the condition of mechanical items of the home and repair costs down the road. An inspector will not pass or fail the home. Rather, he will give you an unbiased opinion of its condition.
Inspections
Financial details should be finalized and ready for implementation on the closing date.
If a home inspection was part of the conditions, it should be completed by the date specified in the contract. You should also be satisfied with the report, and any repairs requested as a result of the report results. If you were planning to purchase a resale car, you would want to avoid the headaches of choosing a lemon. You would most likely have it inspected by a mechanical service or a mechanic you know. When you are purchasing a home, why take a chance on unexpected headaches and money? You will want to make a careful tour of the home, not only yourself, but with a professional inspector. Spending $400-600 is money well spent, as the inspector will conduct a thorough inspection of the home, and provide you with a report detailing any potential problems.

Financial matters
Utility services Contact utility, cable and phone companies to ensure connections are in place on your moving day. Insurance Update your insurance policy so coverage begins on your new home and property upon closing. Your lawyer also needs a copy of the policy before closing. Completing the contract On closing day your lawyer pays the vendor, registers the home in your name and delivers the title and keys. Be sure you have all the keys, including side door, garage door, shed, mailbox, garage door opener, etc. You may want to change the locks or have them re-keyed.
House hunting hints You have established your budget. You have been pre-approved for a mortgage. You have contacted a Real Estate Professional to assist you with the purchase of a home. Now the fun, and evaluation begins. You will probably be looking at a few homes before you decide on the perfect one for your family. Before you decide to purchase that home you have absolutely fallen in love with, be sure to be objective in your decision. On appearance alone, the fireplace, the new flooring, paint job and new carpeting create a warm and inviting feeling. Yet, is the home really that perfect? Take a deep breath. Take some time to think about the bigger picture of the home in terms of your needs. Carefully consider whether this home offers the features that will last beyond the first impression. Here are some essential factors to consider: Location is a significant factor in your choice of home. An established community, with a good reputation, a low crime
rate and well-maintained homes, maintains home values. A garbage dump, industrious buildings disposing bad odours and major freeways surrounding your neighborhood are unattractive and disruptive to a peaceful lifestyle. Also consider availability and cost of access to public transportation, major roads and highways. Also consider the condition of public areas such as streets, sidewalks, parks and recreational facilities. Public services should also be established including street cleaning, snow removal, garbage collection, and emergency services. You will also want efficient access to medical services including hospitals, doctors and dentists. Be sure that schools and related school services are also within easy access. Recreational, shopping and entertainment needs should also be considered.

The benefits of buyer agency In an ideal world, every party in a transaction would be fairly represented. When it comes to real estate, however, this may not be the case. The seller and buyer, depending upon the type of agreement with the Real Estate Professional, may not be represented equally. Many people believe that the agent they are working with automatically represents them and their interests. Yet, without specific disclosures this is not true. Unless otherwise stated, the agent represents the seller in transactions for the sale of a home. This agent, as part of his or her fiduciary duty, must ensure his loyalty protects the seller’s position throughout the entire process. This is true of the “listing agent” who puts the home up for sale, and the agent who finds the buyer. The agent – who helps the buyer find the right home – works for the seller as a “subagent” of the listing agent. With this system, all agents are legally bound to represent the seller. The buyer has no representation. Example 1: You respond to a home advertised in a newspaper, a home
PAGE R10
magazine, or the Internet. The agent is friendly and informative. He or she tells you what you believe to be everything about the house. However, the agent represents the seller, not you. Example 2: You are working with an agent who shows you 10 homes in a weekend. He buys you lunch twice. You tell him your two children. However, he does not offer Buyer Agency. As you feel comfortable with this person, you easily offer personal information. However, without Buyer Agency, this Real Estate Professional is really representing the 10 sellers. Any information you reveal to the agent must be relayed to the sellers. As this Real Estate Professional represents the seller, he or she cannot reveal certain things to you, as the buyer: •
The reason for selling (unless the seller specifically authorizes it)
•
Any concessions, in price or otherwise, that the seller may be willing to give up. cont’d on page R12

• •
Any conversations between the agent and the seller Any information that could be detrimental to the seller, or give you, the buyer, an advantage. This would include a CMA (Comparable Market Analysis) that could put the seller at a disadvantage.
Buyer’s agency ensures you get the best deal In recent years changes to the real estate industry have been made to allow for a more equitable arrangement. Buyers are not alone. In fact, with a Real Estate Professional working on behalf of a buyer, as a buyer’s agent, a buyer receives a full range of professional services. A buyer’s agent commits to a home buyer and provides undivided, confidential representation. This real estate professional has the tools, knowledge, industry connections, negotiating skills and seasoned experience to work for you. Many people lack these essen-
tial skills to ensure you do not pay too much for a home.
Disclosure of all material factors such as:
•
Determining and advising the buyer of a reasonable purchase price
How does a buyer’s agent help you?
•
Seller’s financial condition
•
A buyer’s agent must work in a professional, ethical manner, ensuring the purchaser is treated with care, confidentiality, full disclosure and accurate accounting. A buyer’s agent will also show the buyer available homes, point out the property’s features, provide financing information and submit the offer to purchase. If a Buyer’s Agency agreement is struck between you and the Agent, it is you, rather than the seller, who has the representation from the Agent with whom you are working. Working under the agreements of Buyer Agency, you get the following benefits:
•
Properties true worth
•
Strengths and weaknesses of the property
Discovering any facts that would affect the purchase of the home, and advising the buyer
•
•
Commissions split with other brokers
Ensuring all details and facts of the sale are correct
•
•
Legal effects of important contract provisions
Ensuring all money handled between parties is accounted for

The important thing is to understand your options, so that you don’t unintentionally accept less representation than you want. When you are looking to make the biggest investment of your life, it is not hard to understand why it is important to be represented exclusively.
Reasonable care and skill
