Why? Because buyers who separate what they need from what they want are much more likely to find a home that meets all
their requirements.

For example, say you want a home that is close to a golf course but you need it to be in a neighborhood that has a good local school. f you hold out for both, you may miss some great opportunities on the market. Or worse, you might mix up your priorities and ecome so excited by a house that’s a block away from a country club (what you want) that you fail to realize that the nearest school (what you need) is several miles away.

That’s why you should create TWO lists when you shop for a home:
a needs list, and a wants list.

Your needs list might look something like:
• Four decent sized bedrooms
• A sidewalk in front of the home
• A double car garage
• A playground within walking distance
• A clean, safe neighborhood.

Your wants list may include:
• A finished basement
• Hardwood floors
• A large deck
• Fine dining restaurants nearby
• Backing onto a ravine or wooded area.

Does all this mean you can’t get the home you want, just the home you need? Not at all! By having two separate lists, you can make the best decision. You can make sure you find a home that meets all your requirements and, ideally, one that offers as many of the "extras" as possible.

Chances are, you already know the basics. On the big day, your house should be clean, relatively free of clutter, and presentable.

But you need to go even further if you want your open house to be a success. After all, there may be competition. Your open
house may not be the only one in town that day, or even the only one on your street!

Although it’s your home — with all the emotional attachment that goes with it — you need to think of your house as a product… a product that must be “packaged” to appeal to potential buyers.

How do you do that? Here are some tips that will help:

John Foster Dulles

According to market studies, certain renovations and repairs do add more value to a home than the repairs typically cost. These include kitchen and athroom renovations, new or improved landscaping, and electrical and plumbing repairs.

Many people focus on preparing the inside of their house for sale, and neglect preparing the outside.This is amistake. Studies confirm that curb appeal has a huge influence over how quickly your house will sell, and for how much.

How do you improve curb appeal?

You don’t need to do a major landscaping renovation! In fact, small improvements often make the biggest difference…
improvements you can easily do over a weekend.

Here are some suggestions:

• Clean the outside of front windows.Make them sparkle!
• Remove grass,weeds and other unwanted growth between driveway and walkway stones.
• Prune shrubs and trim trees.
• Re-sod bare spots on the lawn.
• Edge the lawn. (A simple task that can have a dramatic visual impact.)
• Water the flowerbed. (Flowers look brighter and more healthy within one hour of watering.)
• Sweep the walkway and driveway. Rake the leaves.
• Remove signs such as “Beware of dog” and“No solicitations”.
• Check the welcome mat. If it’s worn or dirty, replace it.

Also, consider buying some attractive potted flowers to put near the entranceway.They are worth the investment.

As you can see, it doesn’t take much to boost the curb appeal of your house. Just a little work and a few added details will make a big difference.

Warren Buffett

Here are a few tips:

• Plan your itinerary in advance.Don’t just drive
around.Make a list of homes you want to see.

• If possible, stick to one geographic area.You’ll
drive less and see more homes.

• Get a sitter for the kids.Only bring themalong
for those homes you’re seriously considering
purchasing.

• Avoid the temptation of fast food restaurants.
Take a healthy snack you can eat in the car.

• Pace yourself. Don’t try to do too much in
one day.

House hunting doesn’t have to be a stressful
experience.With some planning, you can make it
a fun adventure.

Just over 1 year old corner unit with only one common wall. 4 level, 3 bedroom and den 1538 sq ft townhouse. Upper level loft is 3rd bedroom. Room for all your house sized furniture and storage for big toys. Your own private garage, full size laundry, stainless appliances, marble counters, open concept kitchen/living room area with built ins, separate dining room and patio area for your summer b-b-q. This is truly one to be seen.

That’s just good old-fashioned marketing.

However, not every house you see will actually look this way. For
any number of reasons, a house on the market may be less than
tidy, poorly decorated, and even in need of minor repairs. You
may open the front door in anticipation, only to be immediately
turned off by stains on the carpets, faded paint on the walls,
cluttered hallways, and more.

First impressions form quickly. It’s easy tomake quick judgments
and move on. But, you may be passing on what could be a
dream home.

Don’t make that mistake. Make your purchase decision based on
a carefully considered second impression, not just your first.
When viewing a house, imagine how it will look with a fresh coat
of paint, some redecorating, the minor repairs completed, and
your furniture adorning the rooms. You might just find that a
home that doesn’t show well is really a diamond in the rough.

(One caveat: Be careful of houses that don’t look like they’ve
been well maintained. There could be issues lurking that may
require expensive repairs or renovations. Always make a
professional home inspection a condition of your offer.)

There are advantages to buying a home that doesn’t show well.
They attract less interest and, therefore, less competition from
other potential buyers. The listing price may be lower too.

Dale Carnegie

It doesn’t cost a lot to paint a room, yet
the effect can be dramatic. And, you can
probably do the job yourself in just a
few hours.

But be careful with your color choices. Just
because you like Olive Green in the
downstairs bathroom doesn’t mean
everyone will share your taste.Your goal is
to make the room appealing to as many
people as possible—not just you.

Choosing off-white colors is the safest bet.
And, as an additional benefit, these light
colors make rooms seem brighter and
more spacious.

The operative word here is “anyone”.

Sure, there might be a computer screen on a desk in the den, or
a child’s Raggedy Ann doll sitting in a corner, but for the most
part, all the rooms are anonymous. There is a sense of family,
but no specific family… the feeling of personality, but no
specific person.

The professionalswho set up amodel homemake it anonymous
for a reason.They want buyers to view it as their potential home,
not someone else’s. And these professionals know — based on
decades of experience — that this strategy helps sell houses
faster and for a better price.

Why not use this same strategy when showing your house
or condo?

It’s easy. Just put away that soccer trophy, take down the
wedding photo, and box those souvenirs from the family
vacation at Disneyland.No, you don’t have to completely empty
your closets and drawers. Just pack those personal items that
can be seen when a potential buyer views a room. Put away
toothbrushes, collectibles, even unopened mail. Don’t forget
the fridge door, which is often a mosaic of personal items in
most family homes.

If you have lots of personal items, consider renting a storage unit
for the few weeks that your house or condo will be on the
market. It’s worth the investment.

You wouldn’t think of buying a birthday cake with a stranger’s
name on it. The same holds true when you show your house or
condo.Make it anonymous!

the best price possible? Call today.

Completely renovated 560 sq ft 1 bedroom unit in a well kept, updated building just off Denman Street. Stainless steel appliances, cabinets counters, tiling , floors, blinds, too much to keep listing. The owner has done a fantastic job of making sure all the details were done right. Quiet neighbourhood with all your ammenities available outside your door. Walk to Stanley Park, English Bay and all the best neighbourhood has to offer. Comes with parking and storage. Pets(2) and rentals permitted. First showings July 20th 2-4 by appointment only.

So, when choosing a “fixer-upper”, look
carefully at the work that needs to be done.
General painting, and bathroom or kitchen
renovations typically increase the resale
value of a house. “Invisible” repairs such as
plumbing, electrical, or heating systems
do not.

Before you buy, work with your REALTOR® to
develop a market value estimate of the
house you are considering as though the
renovations you’re contemplating are
already complete.

If the math works, go for it. Buying a “fixerupper”
can be very rewarding.

It’s easy to come up with a list of agents that specialize in the
area to which you’re moving. Just check the Internet or
contact local real estate offices.

But how do you select a REALTOR® that is the best fit for
your requirements? After all, you may not get a chance to
meet prospective agents face-to-face.

Here are some tips that can help:

• Ask for references. Ideally, you want to speak to other clients
whom the agent has helped to relocate into that area.

• Make sure the agent has the time to help you. You may be
flying in for just a few days to look at several home
possibilities.Will the agent be able to clear his/her schedule
to assist you?

• Does the agent specialize in the type of home and/or
neighborhood you’re looking for? You want your relocation
to go smoothly. If you need a mid-sized family home, don’t
take chances on an agent who sells mainly condos.

• Does the agent have a successful track record of helping
remote home shoppers? Because you are relocating, you will
have special needs and issues that only an agent with
experience can handle.

• Finally, do you get a good feeling about the agent? Does
he/she strike you as friendly, helpful and knowledgeable?
You want to feel comfortable with your choice. If your gut
says “No”, so should you.

Picking the right agent won’t make your relocation seem quite
like a holiday trip. But it will help make it go more smoothly.

1) Clean and de-clutter
Make sure your kitchen, bathrooms, and floors sparkle. Use oldfashioned
elbow grease or call in professional cleaners to get the
job done. Can you walk into your walk-in closet? Does your car
barely fit into your garage? Start packing early and put your
seasonal and personal things into storage. Make your rooms and
cupboards look spacious.

2) Repair the little things
Put on your home inspector‘s hat and walk through your house.
Make a list of the items that need attention and arrange for repairs.
Focus on your entry-way,drywall,paint, sticky/squeaky doors, leaky
faucets, flooring and countertops.

3) Help buyers see themselves in your house
Remove your family photos and personal mementos. If you’re a
collector, pack up your collection. Buyers have difficulty picturing
themselves in your house when your personal items are on display.

4) Let the light in
Bright homes often have a higher resale value. Get your windows
cleaned, inside and out. (Consider hiring a professional.) Pull back
blinds and draperies to let natural light in. If you still have some dark
spots, add floor or table lamps to the area.

5) Groom your yard
You wouldn’t go to a job interview without being well groomed, so
make sure your yard is groomed for viewings. Trim your hedges
and shrubs. Cut the grass. Pull weeds and cut back any greenery
that covers walkways.

But there are a number of lesser known tips — tips you often
don’t hear about—that canmake your home evenmore attractive
and desirable to potential buyers.

In the kitchen, for example, it’s obvious that the stove, sink, and
countertops should be spotless. But did you know that grinding
a lemon will help eliminate any lingering odors? You should also
arrange the contents of your cabinets and refrigerator to face
forward.

In the bathrooms, make sure the toilet lids are closed. Hang
matching towel sets.
Moving onto the bedrooms, check that nothing is lying around.
Even a shirt draped neatly over a chair can appear messy to
some people.

In the kids’ rooms, the toys should be “staged”, not just flung
around. For example, set up a train set like an appealing store
display.Don’t just have bits and pieces scattered on the floor.

If possible,move half the contents of all closets into storage.This
makes a big difference in how spacious they’ll appear.

Turn on everything: all the lights (even the one above the stove),
the fireplace, the backyard fountain.

And here’s another uncommon tip.House plants look their best
—brighter,more upright and alive—approximately four hours
after you water them.

Finally, put on some easy listening tunes to create a pleasant
auditory background.Keep the volume low.No one should have
difficulty talking above the music.

All these tips take justminutes to implement,but they canmake
a big difference in how your home shows. Studies prove that a
well prepped home will often sell faster, and for a higher price,
so it’s worth the effort.

Well maintained home, original owners, recent updates incl. new windows, kitchen lino, new appliances, new deck at back with view of N.Shore Mountains, original H/W flooring, W/B F/P. Ideal location close to school, park & transportation.

Lifestyle
There’s more to life then just paying the mortgage and other living
expenses.Hobbies, entertainment, vacations, family adventures, and
charitable causes are also important.Don’t be house poor.Think of
your “lifestyle” as another bill you must pay—to yourself.

Financial Goals
Your new home is not just a place to live. It’s also an investment.Make
sure it fits with your overall investment plan,which may also include
retirement savings, education funds, emergency cash, and more.

House Expenses
The mortgage isn’t your only home expense.You must also calculate
insurance, utilities, taxes,maintenance and other costs.
Amenities, such as a pool, can turn your home into an oasis. But, you
must be prepared for the upkeep costs.
If you’re buying an older home, expect repair and maintenance costs
to be higher.

Mortgage Eligibility
Your mortgage eligibility is determined by your current income,
debt level, employment history, and credit rating. Lenders use this
information combined with estimates of your new home property
taxes and heating/cooling expenses to determine the largest
mortgage they can offer you.

Be careful. Since lendersmakemoney based on interest on the total
mortgage amount, they naturally want to get you approved for the
highest amount possible.Remember that although youmay qualify for
a $400,000mortgage, youmay not want that level of debt. It will
depend on your lifestyle, financial goals and estimated home expenses.
Home affordability is like a jigsaw puzzle.You need to put all the pieces
together to get a clear picture of howmuch home you can afford.

Obviously, you want to get the most money possible for your house.
But if you set your price too high you’ll scare off potential buyers—
and their agents! If you set your price too low you’ll be leaving
money on the table. People might also reasonably assume that
there’s something wrong with the property.“Why the low selling
price?”

Ideally, the selling price should reflect the market value of your
house, and should be influenced by how quickly you want to sell it.
What is market value?

It’s simply the price that potential home buyers are willing to pay for
a home like yours in your neighborhood.

Your agent should suggest an asking price for your house, based on
market research.The analysis should include sales of properties in
your area that are similar to yours – taking into account the number
of rooms, lot size, square footage, special features (such as pools), etc.
—and provide a comparison.

For example, if your house has two storeys with three bedrooms and
a finished basement the research should include other houses in
your neighborhood with the same features. If these houses sold for
an average of $245,000, then it’s a good bet that potential buyers
would be willing to pay that much for your house.

An agent will try to find at least three recent house sales in your
neighborhood. (The more recent the better, as home prices can
fluctuate.)

Don’t take it personally.

Market value doesn’t take into account any emotional attachment
you may have to any particular feature of your house.You may look at
your backyard garden with pride and remember the many hours of
hard work you spent planning, planting and nurturing. But, no matter
how much more valuable you think the garden makes your house, it
is still only worth whatever someone else is willing to pay for it.

and for the highest possible price? Call today.
