CelebrateSummer

There is nothing like lounging on a patio, enjoying the long lazy days of summer with a cold drink in your hand, and myths about the fall real estate market a distant thought. The sounds of children playing in the yard floats through the air, and the sidewalks are full of happy couples strolling through the neighbourhood, taking the time to get to know their neighbours a little better. Before long, the highlights of summer will come crashing down, and your days will be full of back to school shopping, carpooling to sporting events, and re-organizing your sweater collection.On top of that, new homebuyers and sellers have the added difficulty of navigating the current real estate market with the myths about the fall real estate market floating around. While we hope you are reading this while soaking up everything summer has to offer, because it won’t be long before the tips below will become very handy.

COMMON MYTHS ABOUT THE FALL REAL ESTATE MARKET1. Summer is Over, Why Bother with Curb Appeal?In a few weeks, summer will come to a screeching halt, but that doesn’t mean the extra attention the exterior of your home has been receiving has to come to an end as well. make sure your fall curb appeal is exactly where it needs to be by ensuring walkways and gutters are free of leaves and debris, and ensure your lawn is always mowed. With unexpected weather the fall months can bring, keeping your trees neatly trimmed will ensure fallen branches don’t make your yard appear messy and unkempt.2. People Spend More Time Indoors, So Focus Your Attention ThereJust because fall doesn’t have the heat of the summer, doesn’t mean people stay indoors. With the beauty the changing leaves and crisp fall air has to offer, some people actually enjoy spending time outdoors in the fall more than they do in the summer. Celebrate the season with seasonal home décor around the holidays that will attract potential buyers by making your house feel more like a home.3. The Weather is Cold, and So is Your HomeWhen summer inevitably comes to an end, the first sign will be the plummeting temperatures outdoors. Just because it’s cooler outdoors doesn’t mean your home décor needs to reflect that! Consider a fresh coat of paint in a warmer shade, and don’t be afraid to bring the temperature up a couple degrees to make your guests feel comfortable. If you don’t want to make a large change, a few additions like cozy pillows or throws can go a long way in cozying up your home décor for the cooler months.4. The Price Doesn’t Have to be Quite RightThe biggest mistake you can make when selling in the fall is pricing it incorrectly. The first thing you should do is understand the importance of working with a real estate professional, and from there, how to choose the right one for you. Working with a professional will help you ensure your home is priced correctly for the fall market.5. Once It Sells, You’re Done!The paper’s are signed, and the deal is done, so all you have to do is pack up and move, right? Not quite! Leading up to the holidays, everyone is very busy which means you may have issues finding time to pack, finding a company to help you move, or even finding family and friends who would normally be able to lend a helping hand. To eliminate these issues, plan ahead! make sure your moving date is scheduled firm in everyone’s calendar, and plan ahead to ensure you aren’t left without a solution if someone is forced to back out. A stress free move will make the world of a difference in the first couple days in your new home.Now that you know the common myths about the fall real estate market, you may have a bit more to think about this summer! Take this time to enjoy everything summer has to offer, but tackle small projects on this list to ensure there are no surprises when fall rolls around.

IT’S SUMMERTIME, AND THE LIvIN’S EASY. The longer days and warmer weather make it the perfect time to prepare your home for winter. Here are a few projects to do now to make your life easier when the cold weather arrives.

1. Clean out the garageIt’s far more pleasant to work in the garage in the summer, when you can have the door open without piling on layers of clothes. Carve out a parking space for your car now, and you won’t have to scrape ice off the windshield in December. Plus it’s the perfect time to hold a garage sale for any forgotten “treasures” you discover.

2. Dodge the draftHave you been enjoying summer’s warm breezes – through cracks in your doors? Weather stripping and caulking are affordable ways to close the gaps and boost the efficiency of your heating system come wintertime.

3. Keep your mind in the gutterAt least for a while. Clogged gutters can wreak havoc on your home when

they fill with ice in the winter. While the weather’s warm, grab a ladder, gloves and hose and clear them out. Not ready to trade pool time for gutter work? Hire a local service to do it for you.

4. Find the dealsThe middle of the summer is a great time to find discounts on services you’ll need before the snow falls, like chimney sweeping and heating system checks. Shop around for the best deals and you could save a chunk of change.

5. Check your water heaterYes, this can be done just as easily in the winter as the summer, but while you’re on a roll, why not flush your hot water heater? It takes just a few minutes and costs nothing. Sediment collects over time and reduces the machine’s efficiency. Simply flush the water through the drain valve into a bucket to clear out the particles.

A little work this summer will increase your enjoyment of your home in winter, and also may retain its value.

THE SMELL OF gRILLINg KEBABS, the taste of a burger hot off the barbecue, the great excuse to remain outside on a nice day: Grilling is one of life's simple pleasures. How do you make it even better? Create a patio or deck area that feels like a vacation in your own backyard. Here are a few tips.

1. Kick off your shoesSelect tiles, stone or wood flooring material for your patio that feels nice under bare feet. remember to choose a material that won't get dangerously slippery when wet.

2. Appoint a place to prepTransform your grill into an outdoor kitchen by adding dedicated prep space for the cook. Consider adding a simple high table, a prefab island with heated and cooled drawers, or a complete built-in setup with a sink and fridge.

3. Protect your guestsCanopies and umbrellas are an easy way to make sure your guests don't fry while you grill.

4. Light your nightStrategic lighting can help create a cozy ambience. Tiki torches, strings of tiny lights, lanterns and candles can all help paint a mood. A few citronella candles will keep the bugs away.

5. Furnish for comfortChoose outdoor furniture that's comfy, not just stylish. If you have metal chairs, splurge for cushy pillows. Not only will they help keep your guests happy, they're an easy way to add color to your outdoor living area.

6. Let your drinks chillWhether it's a giant bucket of ice, a wheeled cooler or a built-in mini fridge, having a place to stash drinks cuts back on annoying trips to the kitchen.

6 tips for Creating the Perfect Patio for grilling

real Estate MarketMyths aBout the fall

RE/MAX HOUSING BLOGSMarket WatchSPrIng MarkEt caPPEd off WIth Strong JunEJuly 6, 2016 -- Toronto Real Estate Board President Larry Cerqua announced that Greater Toronto Area REALTORS® reported 12,794 residential transactions through TREB's MLS® System in June 2016. This result was 7.5 per cent higher than the 11,905 sales reported in June 2015. In line with the prevailing trend so far this year, the number of new listings was down by 3.8 per cent.

"As I start my term as TREB President, we are certainly in an interesting environment for ownership housing. There is no doubt that demand is at a record level, but would-be home buyers continue to face an uphill battle against a constrained supply of listings, which has perpetuated strong price growth. Buyers and sellers alike continue to benefit from the value a REALTOR® brings to a transaction," said Mr. Cerqua.

"As the federal, provincial and local levels of government discuss housing policy in the coming months, issues affecting the lack of supply in the GTA should be of paramount importance. TREB will be undertaking, and making public, results of additional research in the second half of 2016, with the goal of proactively adding to the housing policy discussion," added Mr. Cerqua.

The MLS® Home Price Index Composite Benchmark was up by 16 per cent on a year- overyear basis. The average selling price for all home types combined was up by a slightly higher annual rate of 16.8 per cent to $746,546. The single-detached, semi-detached and townhouse market segments led the way in terms of price growth.

"When TREB surveyed consumer intentions for 2016, we found that the majority of GTA households who were likely to purchase a home continued to be pointed towards some form of ground oriented housing. This is why we continue to see strong competition between buyers in many neighbourhoods where supply remains constrained," said Jason Mercer, TREB's Director of Market Analysis.

Over the years our small but extremely productive office has had many accomplishments. One of these relates to the horse industry and our ability to successfully list, market and sell, a variety of horse properties a year.

In 2015, it became obvious due to the increased demand for services that an addition to our team was imminent. The challenge of finding a professional with high ethics that would bring additional strength to an already well-rounded team was no small task. We had no intention of simply hiring just anybody but needed a perfect fit to our family-like office. From the first time that we met with Jen Unger it became obvious that our check list of requirements and even our wish list could be obtained.

Jen is a Caledon girl born and raised with a family that is well known in the community. She brings with her a quality and level of professionalism that is surely a rare find. Add to this her decades of experience in the horse industry and you have yet another very strong asset that made her stand out against any other candidates. In January 2016 Jen joined ‘The Richie Group’.

After several months now of having the privilege of working side-by-side with Jen it is obvious we made the right selection. With Jen’s experience in the professional world, in the community and in the horse industry, she is yet another strong asset to our team. RE/MAX In The Hills has long been the dominant force in the area. Our listing volume

by sales with our intimate five agent team successfully outsells offices with a few and even 100 or more sales representatives.

‘The Power of 5’

With this dynamic group we are able to offer those who call upon our services the strongest well-rounded and most productive team in the Caledon, Mono area's. The advantage to our clients is a wealth of knowledge and experience. It is the ability to now have five sales professionals together with an extremely strong in-house support team each of which has a role to play with all our clientele.

With Chris as lead, broaching 30 years experience in your market area, decades of additional experience within the team and the addition of Jen, the choice is obvious. Whether it be a horse property, fine estate or your ‘piece of heaven’ we have the tools, the experience, and know how to get the job done.

Isn't this the type of representation and force that you want behind the team that you choose to represent you! We are undoubtedly the individuals, the team and the office that you want in your corner. Call us today, as there hasn’t been another time when prices have been better or demand higher than right now, to make that move that you have been considering.
