Real Estate Market in Innisfil.  Today’s market for buying and selling homes if very competitive and you will want to ensure you have picked the best possible real estate agent to represent you.  Here are some tips we have gleaned from some professionals.

Does your professional Realtor provide a staging service for his or her listings, many do in this competitive market.  What information did your agent bring to your home prior to listing?  How many agents are in his office, how many listings does he currently have?  There are many people who are doing “on the job training” make your agent isn’t one of them.

How is your Realtor intending to market your home.  What type of ads and how many open houses will they be having.  It is always better to have an understanding on how the process will take place prior to listing, then there is no confusion.

When listing your home ensure you are using the current market conditions and not a two year old appraisal that does not reflect the current market prices.  Mortgages rates are low and vacancy rates are declining which is good news for investors and sellers of properties.

Many people try and save money by utilizing the same Realtor and will even use a Home Inspector recommended by the Realtor.   This saving can have dire consequences when you don’t have someone whose only duty is too look after your interests.  Pay for the services of a professional and they will ensure your interests come first and foremost.

When buying a “used” home or property it is very important to ensure all work was done by qualified trades persons and all permits were taken out.  Patio’s and decks are often erected illegally without using the proper building techniques or materials.  You could end up paying to remove structure and erecting a new one if your local building authority inspects your property.
