ritter Care started back in 1984 out of the home of Gail Martin in Brookswood. Actually earlier than that in the heart of Gail when she was just a young girl. In 1993 Critter Care became a registered charity and in 1998 formed a partnership with the Greater Vancouver Regional District (GVRD) and moved into an 80 year old farm house on 5 acres of land on the edge of Campbell Valley Regional Park in Langley. From that point onward and with countless hours of hard work by her late husband, Richard Martin, and many loyal volunteers and supporters built Critter Care Wildlife Society to the amazing Wildlife Refuge it is today. Critter Care rescues, rehabilitates and releases back into the wild all of British Columbia’s native mammal species

from squirrels to black bear cubs. Critter Care Wildlife Society is the only organization in all of Southern British Columbia that specializes in our native mammal species. Over the many years, Critter Care has cared for thousands upon thousands of our native mammals and through your continued compassion and support for them, will allow Critter Care to continue providing that second chance of life to these amazing creatures. On behalf of those who can’t speak for themselves Thank you.

All-in for Arthritis Arthritis can affect anyone and kids get it too. With its ability to reduce mobility, shatter career dreams and destroy eyesight, arthritis can be an especially devastating journey for a child. For 35 years, The Arthritis Society (TAS) has provided a camp for kids living with this complex and challenging disease. The camp experience helps kids to build confidence, as they learn about themselves and how to dream big, despite having arthritis. In celebration of the 35th Anniversary of Camp, The Arthritis Society is hosting the “All in for Arthritis” Poker Gala at the Stanley Park Pavilion on January 27th 2017. Guests will be treated to delicious food & drink, casino games, a silent auction, and mystery balloon surprises.

Thinking of Selling? Costs You Should Know About! Often times it’s the simple math that will betray you when selling a property. You take what you think your property will sell for and then subtract what you owe on your mortgage, and the rest is your profit! Well… not so fast, there are several costs that have to be taken into consideration when selling a home. It’s especially important to get these costs right when you are selling one property, and using the proceeds from that sale as a downpayment for another property. So here is a fairly comprehensive list of costs you may incur when selling your home. Real Estate Transaction Costs Selling a property isn’t cheap. If you use the services of a professional REALTOR®, the total commission cost is going to be anywhere between 4-6% of the purchase price, divided between the listing agent and the buyer’s agent. It’s also good to note that GST is added to real estate commissions. If you are looking for a way to get around paying real estate commissions, you might consider selling your house privately. To list your property with a FSBO company (for sale by owner), you are going to be anywhere between $400-$1500 just for setup and a bit of marketing. From there, you may still have to negotiate a commission if potential buyers are working with a buyer’s agent. Mortgage Discharge Fees If you are breaking your mortgage in the middle of your term, you will be responsible to pay a penalty. On a closed mortgage, that penalty will be either 3 months interest or an Interest Rate Differential penalty, known as an IRD. Each mortgage contract is written up differently lender by lender, so it’s impossible to simply explain the math here and have you calculate your penalty on your own. In order to figure out your IRD ahead of time, you can either contact your lender directly, or you can contact me and I can help you through the process. The IRD penalty is the wildcard in the whole process, because depending on how the lender calculates the penalty, penalties can range from $3,000 to $30,000. It is very important to know what you are dealing with here. If you are currently in a variable rate mortgage, your penalty will be equal to 3 months interest. Even if you are in an open

mortgage, or have a home equity line of credit secured to your property, there might not be a penalty to discharge, but there will most certainly be some kind of lender fee, usually between $250-$500. Lawyer’s Fees In order to discharge the title of your property, and to verify that the buyer is going to receive a clear title of your property, you are going to incur legal fees to sell your property. In a straightforward discharge, expect to pay between $500-$1000, less than when you purchased the property, but an expense none the less. Utilities and Property Tax You are responsible for paying all the property taxes and utilities up to the day you no longer have possession. If you close in the middle of the month, you will be responsible for half the months taxes and utilities. If you are on equalized payments, and you have run a deficit with the utility company, expect to bring that bill current before your lawyer can discharge the mortgage! Capital Gains Tax If you’re selling your primary residence, you are in the clear, however, if you are selling an income property, you will be responsible to pay taxes on half the gains at your marginal income tax rate. Property Repair Make sure the small things are looked after. Low-cost, minor improvements like: patch drywall and nail holes, repaint. Fix or replace damaged flooring. Replace burnt out light bulbs. Moving Depending on how much stuff you have, you are looking at some gas money and pizza for friends, or a few hundred to a few thousand for movers. There you have it, by understanding these costs hopefully you will have a better idea of how much money you will actually have in your jeans after selling your house!
