The Cost of Selling Your Home Without Me

The Cost of Selling Your Home Without Me Everybody enjoys saving money. Many people figure they can save money by selling a home on their own — without using a real estate agent. However, whether you’re buying or selling, you’re involved in an intricate process requiring many specialists.   Here’s a few compelling disadvantages to selling your house yourself:   You Don’t Know What You Don’t Know Homeowners selling without the services of a licensed professional are treading murky waters.  The truth is that even though we live in the age of information, finding out what your home is worth is not as easy as heading over to Zolo and entering your address.  Part of the value that realtors bring to the table is their access to their local board’s MLS data.

Reborn Walker Power Building to showcase unearthed railroad turntable

Reborn Walker Power Building to showcase unearthed railroad turntable Read the Windsor Star article below to find out more about the recently-discovered 1880s railroad turntable that will be displayed at the Walker Power Building. Courtesy: https://windsorstar.com/news/local-news/reborn-walker-power-building-to-showcase-unearthed-railroad-turntable Brian Cross  A recently discovered 1880s railroad turntable will be preserved and put on display beneath a glass floor in the Walker Power Building currently undergoing an $11-million rebirth. Right now, the turntable looks like a Roman ruin unearthed by archeologists, located about six feet beneath the building’s ground floor and sharing the excavated base with the building’s big columns. “This thing here is one of the oldest structures around here, I don’t think there’s anything this old,” structural engineer Piero Aleo of Aleo Associates, a part-owner of Walker Power Building Inc. and quarterback for the project, said Wednesday as he showed off the discovery. He always knew about the presence…

20 Essential Home Selling Tips for Windsor-Essex County

20 Essential Home Selling Tips for Windsor-Essex County 1. Understand the Windsor-Essex Real Estate Market –  What’s moving the market? If you don’t know, make sure your agents does. Understanding the current Real Estate climate in Windsor-Essex is critical to know what the local trends are for your neighbourhood.   2. A tidy, uncluttered home sells – A messy or cluttered home can knock thousands of dollars off of your profit.  Money can be lost for not putting in a little elbow grease.

Tougher mortgage rules can’t hold down these 2 Ontario housing markets

Tougher mortgage rules can’t hold down these 2 Ontario housing markets Year-old federal rules that make it harder to qualify for a mortgage haven’t taken the wind out of the sales in two “resilient” Ontario housing markets while some bigger cities elsewhere in the country have struggled in the policy’s wake. “Markets such as London and Windsor remain tight and have proved resilient to the stricter mortgage stress tests implemented on January 1st, 2018,” writes Marc Desormeaux, a provincial economist for Scotiabank Economics, in a recent report. Those stress tests, which apply to uninsured mortgages (putting down 20 percent means you don’t need to get mortgage insurance), increased the rate at which applicants need to qualify for a mortgage by 200 basis points. BC realtors say the test has made a dent in their markets, industry group Mortgage Professionals Canada has opposed it in its current form, and so has the Ontario Real Estate Association. So what’s helped London and Windsor weather the storm? “I think in both cases they’ve seen…
