Introducing the
BY JULIE ACHTERMEIER
What started as an idea to amalgamate the Realtors Association of Hamilton-Burlington (RAHB) and Waterloo Region Association of Realtors (WRAR) soon caught wind and spread like all good ideas often do. Julie Sergi, a realtor with RAHB for 19 years, saw an opportunity to join forces with a like-minded organization to form a stronger association of realtors. Shortly after talks began, the Mississauga Real Estate Board (MREB) and Simcoe and District Real Estate Boards (SDREB) also asked to join. Talks between the four groups began in the fall of 2023 and took about nine months to negotiate. By July 1st, 2024, the Cornerstone Association of Realtors (Cornerstone) was formed, with Julie Sergi elected as Chair for Cornerstone's 2024/2025 Board of Directors.
"We have similar ideas and mindsets and felt that pooling our resources, funds and staff would better serve a greater community of realtors," Julie says.
The Association represents almost 9,000 realtors and serves Hamilton-Burlington, Mississauga, Niagara North, Haldimand County, Norfolk County, and Waterloo Region. "Cornerstone was created to help the public," Julie explains. "It allows us to operate at a higher capacity, offer better services and training for realtors, and gives us a stronger position to lobby the various levels of government."
By amalgamating, they have removed redundancy, become more cost-effective by operating under one budget, and can provide better access to information for smaller districts like Simcoe, which previously operated with a small staff. "We can better serve smaller communities with a larger brain pool, giving them access to more resources," says Julie.
Despite the amalgamation, Cornerstone will maintain offices in its four locations: Mississauga, Hamilton, Waterloo, and Simcoe.
Cornerstone, a not-for-profit organization, offers enhanced professional development at little or no cost to realtors, which is good for them and even better for their clients. "If realtors are better educated, they can better serve the buyers and sellers in these areas," says Julie.
As the second largest realtor association next to the Toronto Region Real Estate Board (TRREB), Cornerstone adopted the tagline REALTORS® Together, Stronger Together after repeating this mantra throughout the months leading up to their amalgamation. Their vision is to "establish a new, more influential, capable, and member-centric organization designed to meet the evolving needs of realtors and help them thrive in the marketplace."
One area of significant focus for Cornerstone in the real estate market is data gaps in the MLS (multiple listing service) property database. By combining forces, Cornerstone felt it was imperative to accept inter-board listings within the larger market at no charge. They believe all Ontario realtors should have the same access to all Ontario MLS listings. The organization not only supports realtors but also provides tools and information to landlords and tenants, actively educating those in the rental market.
Cornerstone holds several monthly events, virtual and in person, and donates generously to Habitat for Humanity, a not-for-profit organization advocating for affordable housing across Canada. On September 12th of this year, they kicked off their inaugural event, a Charity Golf Tournament, to raise money for Habitat for Humanity Waterloo Region (Habitat). With the support of sponsors, donors, volunteers and the community, the event raised $45,045.
While developing something new always comes with a few hiccups, Julie says it took little time to iron out the details, and members see the value of having more resources, better access to MLS listings, and a larger team to work with.
"Cornerstone is looking forward to being a different membercentric and transparent association that assists the public, provides more information and consistent messaging, and ensures its members are the best realtors out there."
Julie Sergi is a Broker with Royal LePage Burloak Real Estate Services in Burlington.

How Remote Work IS RESHAPING the Canadian Mortgage and Real Estate Landscape
BY JASON WOODS
In recent years, we’ve witnessed a seismic shift in our work lives, notably the rise of remote work brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. This change isn’t just about swapping office desks for dining tables; it’s profoundly impacting where we choose to live and our mortgage and real estate decisions. In this post, let’s explore this intriguing new landscape together.
THE REMOTE WORK REVOLUTION AND ITS RIPPLE EFFECTS
The pandemic has been a turning point, accelerating the remote work trend. A significant number of Canadians have embraced the flexibility and comfort of working from home, leading to a re-evaluation of their living needs and preferences.
1 The Surge in Suburban and Rural Property Interest
With the advent of remote work, the urban appeal has seen some competition. Many are now eyeing suburban and rural areas for their spacious, affordable properties, leading to a notable uptick in mortgage applications in these regions.
2 Urban vs. Non-Urban Mortgage Trends
The mortgage landscape is also evolving. Historically, urban centres like Toronto and Vancouver dominated the mortgage market with their high property values and rates. However, the newfound interest in non-urban areas is changing this dynamic.
• Urban Mortgage Rates: have traditionally been higher due to the premium on city living.
• Non-Urban Mortgage Rates: have become increasingly competitive, reflecting the growing demand for suburban and rural properties.
3 Lenders Adapting to the Change
Lenders are noticing these trends and adapting. They’re reassessing their lending criteria to accommodate the growing demand for mortgages outside large urban centers. This includes:
• Flexible Lending Criteria: Understanding the unique financial profiles of remote workers.
• Innovative Mortgage Products: Tailored to meet diverse needs, from city condos to countryside homes.
4 Shifting Real Estate Priorities
With remote work, the checklist for an ideal home is changing. Spacious homes with home offices, good internet connectivity, and serene environments are gaining popularity over the traditional allure of city amenities.
5 The Impact on Urban Real Estate
Urban real estate isn’t obsolete, but it’s transforming. We’re seeing a shift towards more affordable, smaller units catering to a different demographic – young professionals, students, and those who prefer city life despite remote work.
6 The Future of Work and Real Estate
As remote work becomes a permanent fixture, we can expect continued evolution in the real estate and mortgage sectors. This includes:
• Further Growth in Non-Urban Areas: Expect more development and infrastructure growth in these regions.
• Hybrid Work Arrangements: A mix of remote and office work could lead to unique housing needs.
CONCLUSION
The remote work wave isn’t just a temporary tide; it’s reshaping our lifestyles and, by extension, our real estate and mortgage decisions. Mortgage brokers are here to guide you through these changing tides, ensuring you make informed decisions whether you’re eyeing a serene cottage in the countryside or a chic urban loft.
Remember, whether urban or rural, each choice comes with its unique mortgage implications, and understanding these is key to making the right decision. So, make sure you embark on this journey with a mortgage professional, who can help you navigate the new normal of Canadian real estate and mortgages.

MAXIMIZING NATURAL LIGHT
BRIGHTENING YOUR HOME AS DAYS GET SHORTER
As winter settles in and daylight hours
As fall settles in and daylight hours diminish, keeping your home bright and inviting can help combat the gloominess of shorter days. Here are some tips for maximizing natural light and brightening your living space:
1
Clean Windows Regularly: Dust and grime can block sunlight from entering your home. Regularly clean windows inside and out to ensure maximum light flow.
4
Trim Obstructing Trees: If trees or bushes outside your windows are blocking sunlight, consider trimming them back to allow more light to enter your home.
5
Light Paint Colours: colours colours
Light Paint Colors: Use light and neutral paint colors for walls, ceilings, and furniture. Light colors reflect more light, making spaces feel brighter and more open.
2 Use Light-Colored Curtains and Blinds: Opt for sheer or light-colored window coverings that allow sunlight to filter through. Avoid heavy drapes that can make a room feel darker.
3
ured Curtains light-coloured
Mirrors and Reflective Surfaces: Strategically place mirrors and reflective surfaces to bounce natural light around your rooms. This can create the illusion of more light and space.
6
Glass Doors and Partitions: Incorporate glass doors or partitions to allow light to flow between rooms. Frosted glass can provide privacy while still letting in natural light.
7 Skylights and Solar Tubes: For a more significant impact, consider installing skylights or solar tubes. These features can bring in natural light from above, brightening darker areas of your home.
Implementing these strategies can help keep your home well-lit and cheerful, even as the days grow shorter.
