SELF EMPLOYED. You know it would be easier to get financing if you worked for someone else and could just supply your pay stubs - but you're an entrepreneur.

NOT SO PERFECT CREDIT. Some folks have had their credit rating affected because of some tiny problem which has now been or could easily be rectified. Well not all of our lenders are unsympathetic. Give us a call and let's see if we can help. (privacy assured) |
IT'S YOUR BUSINESS: You may have a family member or close friend who is a licensed REALTOR® who you feel would expect your listing - but you would rather keep the details of your sale (mortgage debt etc) private. However you really don't want to offend and upset them either. So together we'll work out a referral basis so that they will be compensated but will not be privy to your business. Call for more information. (Privacy assured).

SICK AND TIRED OF PAYING OVERVALUED GTA PRICES? It's no secret that on average GTA homes are really overpriced - but that's what you have to pay if you really want to live there. Now add, high crime, expensive parking, high taxes, dirty streets, noise and air pollution and the list goes on. We know because we used to list and sell homes there.
9 years ago we moved to Barrie. We now enjoy a perfect mix of young and older families. Less crime and lower taxes. The gorgeous lakefront and beautiful beach areas, great shopping, sailing, fishing, fine dining, excellent schools, live theatre, a superb hospital and many recreational facilities. There's always something going on here. Being close to ski hills and numerous golf courses doesn't hurt either. There's GO train and bus service to Toronto and Muskoka is an hour away.
Our lower housing costs are another big reason so many move here. There is a huge choice of homes in all price ranges, so you're sure to find just the right one for you.
Even if you live outside the GTA, you may be paying a high price for your home. We have compared the average home price of three towns north of the GTA with Barrie. Please go to our LOCATION-PRICE-VALUE page found under the About Barrie Link and see how much you could save on your dream home.
Let's talk! There's no cost, obligation or pressure. Tell us what you are looking for and we'll email you all the listings that suit your needs and fit within you're budget. Let our 28 years of award winning residential real estate experience and expertise work for you.. |

When you work with experienced REALTORS® like us, you'll get not only skilled negotiators but much more. Over the years, we have gained knowledge about house construction, plumbing, electrical, heating and ventilation, grading, well and septics, landscaping, mold and environmental issues, interior design, real property law, municipal by-laws, mortgages, area knowledge, psychology, marketing, appraisal, advertising, market trends and more!
If necessary, we will put you in touch with a multitude of qualified specialists who could answer almost every question you have. NOW THAT'S VALUE!! |  FOR SALE BY OWNER
Consider putting on a white coat, draping a stethoscope around your neck, sitting at your computer and self diagnosing your own medical complaint. Would you take the risk? Probably not, your health is too important, you need a professional. Some are prepared to attempt to sell their own home...their largest financial asset themselves without an experienced professional to represent them. Sure, a few get lucky but most don't.
An Ontario real estate license is valid for two years. To renew, during the two years REALTORS® must attend mandatory continuing education courses and obtain the necessary amount of credits or the Registrar won't renew the license. Could there be a little more to selling real property than meets the eye? LET'S TALK! |
