Are you looking for a NEW HOME for the NEW YEAR?!!

I would love to be able to help you with your journey! You tell me what’s on the list… And I will find it!

Three steps to start the first time home buying process

It’s as easy as 1-2-3

1- FIND a Realtor

This is a relational business….. make sure you have found someone who will
Hear what YOUR wants and needs are and will help you drill down what is important to you!

Interview agents until you find “the one”
This person will then become your buyers agent! And walk you through the process and facilitate YOUR Deal- YOUR way!

It is important to Find someone you trust and will be honest with you to help you find a successful transaction

Someone who can chat with you about what the WHOLE process looks like!

2- GET pre approved with an experienced mortgage broker

That does not mean that you need to spend exactly that amount of money this is just a guideline and then of course you need to consider the rest of your budget such as student loans, vehicle payments, taxes and insurance food and fuel
Also!! Know where Your down payment is going to come from and what the rules behind that look like.
An experiences Mortage broker will make sure they have lol the documents required so that you are comfortable to move forward.

3- GO HOUSE hunting with YOUR buyers agent

This is a process and they are so excited to walk through it with you!

This can take longer than you think sometimes – make sure you feel like you have looked A
at everything (even if the pictures don’t look good) if it’s in your price range and ticks boxes LOOK- looking is free and you don’t know unless you see it!

Licensed realtors in Alberta can show you any property on the MLS market!!

House Hunting is exciting but can be stressful
–
Take notes
Way pros and cons
Look at recent SOLDS and actively listed properties as COMPARABLES
This helps you feel reassured in your choice and the offer process.

Then when YOU find “the one” you
Write the offer and move through the next part of this process…..
Timing & communication is essential through this time frame
Feel free to ask questions throughout the whole process-

The answer is and will always be Customer Service…

This is an integral part of any interaction that you have with any of your clients

whether you’re a store front owner or an online maker, a service business or wether you whether you’ve turned into all online interactions….
My question is how are you going above and beyond to elevate the customer experience?

Have you taken the time to evaluate what your client avatar is looking for Specifically
?…

The world has changed… But the thing that is not changed is a client yearning for an exceptional customer experience! We’re all humans and we will always crave human connection, where we want to matter where we want our voice our concerns, our needs needs our desires no matter how big or small we want to be heard.

There’s so much tension in the air right now… I urge everybody that has the ability to pull back put your hand over your heart and just show grace, show kindness be a light to other people right now… Help elevate someone else’s experience, because that’s going to be the game changer! And it feels good to feel good and help others!

If somebody is choosing to spend money with you it’s a privilege!
I ask everybody to stop take the time and evaluate what is your clients are looking for… Nobody has a successful business with a one shot wonder, we need to have repeat clients, clients that are proud to say that they’re a part of your shpere and they are excited share their experience with working with you.

So hats off to every business owner big and small-
Tune into customer service – You are the difference!
Thank you for what you do!

Wow! Was my first reaction when the Coronavirus really came to kick us all in the butt…..

Then it was OK, we got this; we can only control what we can control… So let’s focus on what we can.

This has been & is a pivot point for many. I know & understand there is going to be a grieving process through out this whole once in a life time pandemic— from missed Birthdays, Graduations,Funerals & so much more then the big things….. the list really is endless when you think about all the things you took for granted in your daily day, including reply simple things like coffee dates or wing nights! What we have come know MORE than anything at our house is we LOVE our people, we love our family & friends and can’t wait to connect with them in person— on more than a Facetime or Zoom! ( although I can’t say enough HOW THANKFUL I am for Technology ) WE are created to be communal & to connect with people.

I can show ANY home that is listed on MLS!! #askingisfree #lookingisfree #youdontknowwhatyoudintknow

I also wanted to take the time to re-introduce myself! Every once in a while I put myself in the position of a new buyer or seller and think what would I like to know about my agent so number one I’m a seasoned award-winning real state agent who has a love and passion for everything local-
I’m also a wife, a mom and an avid volunteer in our Region.

1️⃣

Find a MORTGAGE BROKER you can work with… make sure you are clear about what your vision is and your goals. I always suggest a mortgage broker when you’re looking for investment properties because Mortgage Broker’s are specialists in knowing what banks offer the best products for what you’re looking for. After all you’re getting into this business to make money so you want to make sure that you have the best option for products
Your REALTOR can help you find somebody That will be a match for you and I will help you achieve your goals.

No longer is there a need for too many people have the desire to stay in their home forever… As every stage of life does call for something different.  You may start out in a condo, a small home that you may eventually turn into a rental property… As couples get married raise families, have your kids leave this is often a time where families again look at right sizing for their needs… And also look at purchasing homes in the towns or cities and their kids go to University In. I can’t stress enough that there are homes that can take boxes for every stage of life!

Todays #thankfulthursday #clientupdate is from a couple who sold both of their starter homes to move into the next stage of life! NOTE they did this LAST year in a tough market!! This year is looking even better as the market is stabilizing!!  I love when I get to do.
