Hello Friends! I would like to introduce you to my new logo and slogan; "LEADING YOU HOME". This simple, yet powerful statement provides a lot of impact.

 

Home symbolizes many things. It is solitude, it is freedom. It is where your heart is. It's the place that we all need to feel our most comfortable and call our own. I believe that "LEADING YOU HOME" is the simplest way to convey how I will be the professional in your corner, guiding you to your very own home sweet home.

Hello Friends!

 

I'm sure we're all getting a little tired of this "Vancouver-ish" weather...am I right? Rain, rain, rain! Although it makes us all a little drowsy it's great for lawns, flowers and trees to start sprouting, blooming and getting that oh-so beautiful green lucious look that summer has to offer!

 

Summer is my favourite time to have listings, show houses and be out with clients. Looking at a house in the winter takes a little imagination: most of he beauty is hidden below the snow. So when you're selling your home in the Summer, make sure you capitalize on the beauty your home could possess!

 

Here are some tips to make your home show AMAZING in the Summer:

 

1. Lawn Maintenance:

Keeping the grass cleanly mowed and manicured will make your home look inviting and tidy. Not to mention the message it sends to prospective buyers; that message is "we care about our home". When people care about their lawns, they probably care about other things like...working appliances, furnace, dry basement etc etc...the list goes on. It's all about perception.

 

2. Flowers:

Add some colour to accent your home! Flowers are an inexpensive way to jazz up your curb appeal! That first impression is VERY important. It will set the tone for the rest of the showing. If they love your house before they've even stepped inside, then you're miles ahead of the competition. Perennials (bloom every year) mixed with some Annuals (bloom one season) are also a good selling feature. Perennials require low maintenace and will be attractive to people who want the benefit of flowers without the hassle. Hanging plants are another easy solution.

 

3. Fresh Air

Open up those windows and let the breeze flow freely! On a warm summer day, having the breeze blow softly through the windows will help people visualize their lives there. The home is alive and the sounds of nature will fill the room. Not to mention fresh air will make your home smell neutral and clean. Harsh smells (too much air freshener, dated/stained carpets, smokers, pet odours) can send a negative impression to buyers. We don't want to give people any reason to not visualize themselves in your home!

Hello Everyone!

 

It has been a while since I "blogged" but its 2012, and new year, and I'm very excited to see what this year brings!  2011 went by so quickly! It was especially exciting to help close personal friends and family buy/sell their homes. :)

 

Now that the holiday's are over, I am noticing that people are starting to get back to regular life and that also means back in the market for houses. Both buyers and sellers are returning after a brief haitus over Christmas.

 

It's just the beginning of January, but I anticipate that as we move closer to February, our market is going to start heating up very quickly. Winnipeg is still very strong and house values are still increasing.

 

I can't wait to meet all my new clients and find them the home thats juuuuuuust right ;)

 

This is a referral based business so if you know anyone who is looking to buy or sell, I would appreciate you mentioning my name :) I will not let them down. That's a promise!

"Help Us, Help Shelter" program!!! The money was raised through registered garage sales who donated all, or a portion of their earnings to the foundation; and agent donations.

 

NATIONALLY, Royal LePage offices across Canada raised a whopping $386,000!!!

 

CONGRATULATIONS everyone, awesome job!

Hello Everyone!

 

I just sold another house last night and that feeling never gets old! Helping someone buy a home changes their life; and I get to be a part of that! It's so cool. I love being the one to call them and tell them the good news; "CONGRATULATIONS, YOU GOT IT!"

 

I really do care a lot about my clients and want to maintain a relationship with them throughout the years, after the sale. This business is built on positive relationships and trust and I can't wait to meet my new clients and help them too!  Are you one of them?  :)

Hello everyone!

 

Welcome to my first blog ever...of any kind.

 

There's no doubt that when you're about to embark on a life changing endeavour (ie. buy or sell your home) people head to the internet to research and find answers. They want to make sure they are well informed and educated about the whole process--and I dont blame them! I would do it too!

 

And for this reason, I decided to create a website for my business, so that I would be more accessable to my clients. I wanted people to be able to discover a little more about myself as a person and as a REALTOR in order to make choosing me, an easy decision Wink

 

So stay tuned! I will be blogging about my life as a REALTOR and I hope you find it both entertaining, and insightful as to the type of person I am.
