Thanks to his hard work, diligence and patience, I am now moving in to my first home and could not be happier! I initially discovered Jason online where I found his website easy to navigate and his regular emails of listings allowed me to get to know the local area from out of town. When we met in person, I was impressed with his knowledge and positive attitude and knew that I was in highly competent hands. He is the sort of guy who does not simply tell you what you want to hear but instead listens and goes the extra mile in checking and double checking on important details and information pertaining to the sale. He answered the questions I forgot to ask and was a calm and reliable voice in a process that can be both challenging and stressful. I found Jason easy to reach and very quick to respond to any and all concerns. I hope not to have to think about moving again <span class=SpellE>any time</span> soon but if I ever have any future real estate needs, I can relax knowing that I have a realtor with integrity and experience on my side.

I never believed that someone could be so friendly, honest and willing to go well beyond the call of duty in order to help a prospective client in need. I had been around to many houses and was starting to feel bad that my pickiness might be wearing a little thin on him. But there was never any pressure to put in an offer and never any hesitation to show me yet another home. Always keeping me informed of what was going on with houses I showed some interest in. My mom came to see some of my final choices and after going through a few houses with him was just floored with his honesty, helpfulness, professionalism and knowledge that she wanted to move to Port Elgin in hopes that everyone was as kind and caring as Jason.

It's a contract between you and the brokerage company that the listing sales person or Broker represents. It is a framework for subsequent forms and negotiations. It's important the agreement accurately reflects your property details and clearly spells out the rights and obligations of all parties. Both you and the listing representative sign the listing agreement and each receive a copy. The agreement binds both parties to its terms and conditions. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Generally, in the agreement you appoint the brokerage company as your agent and give its representatives the authority to find a purchaser. The duration of the agreement is indicated, and the compensation is specified. The agreement also sets out the listing price, and accurately describes the property you are selling. That will include the lot size, building size, building style and materials, floor areas, heating/cooling systems, room sizes and descriptions.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>This is when you must also decide what you are taking with you and what you are leaving with the house. Generally, unless stated otherwise, fixtures remain with the property, while chattels -- things which are movable -- aren't included in the sale. If necessary, what stays and what goes are listed under "inclusions" or "exclusions."<span style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span>BE VERY <span class=SpellE>SUIRE</span>! For example, a bookshelf fastened to the wall could be construed as a fixture and may have to stay unless otherwise stated in the listing/offer.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Finally, the Listing Agreement may also detail the financial conditions of the property, including the mortgage balance, mortgage monthly payments and the mortgage due date. It should also provide information about annual property taxes; and references for any easements, rights of way, liens or charges against the property. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>One advantage of listing with a REALTOR® is that only a REALTOR® is able to place your listing on the MLS® which is the co-operative listing system operated by local real estate boards. This is a member-to-member service developed by REALTORS®, AND MAINTAINED BY REALTORS®.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>When your listing is placed on the Multiple Listing Service®, the information about your property is shared with all other REALTORS® accessing MLS®, and all REALTORS® have the opportunity to sell your property. This type of cooperative effort will result in the listing agent offering compensation to the selling agent. Your property gains more exposure, because it reaches the majority of the real estate professionals in your community and nationwide.<span style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span>Members have access to more information about the property than the general public.<span style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span>This is because members must disclose <span class=SpellE>pertinant</span> information about the property to their buyers. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>One major issue for anyone selling a property is how much to ask for. Although you may have an idea of how much your house is worth, it's important to have your home valued by a professional on its own merits. Be careful not to price yourself too high or too low. If it's too high, there's no sale; too low and you lose on your investment. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>A REALTOR® has the research and expertise to provide a market assessment of what similar properties in your area have sold for. They can also provide information on market history, such as the number of properties sold in your community the previous month or year.<span style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span>Jason Steele of Coldwell Banker in Port Elgin and Southampton areas, does not charge for a market evaluation providing you list with him within 45 days of the evaluation.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Your REALTOR® may also recommend an Open House as a marketing strategy. There are two types: first is an agent's open house, where if you have signed an MLS® agreement, other REALTORS® may also be invited. Remember, each of these REALTORS® may have a prospective buyer. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>The second type of open house is a public open house, where members of the public are invited to walk through your home and have a look. It's an efficient way to show your home to many potential buyers at once. The listing representative will act as host, answering any questions. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>You and your listing agent will pick the time and date for an open house. In order to give the representative access to your home, you may wish to keep a key at his or her office, or in a lockbox. It's also a good idea to ensure that any valuables are put away in a safe location, then leave while the open house is underway. If you do stay, be sure to keep out of the way, and turn off any TVs or radios to let the representative and the buyer talk in peace. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Needless to say, clean counts with open houses. A general rule is that clean, uncluttered and well-lit spaces look larger and more attractive. People will naturally want to buy a house that is clean and well cared for. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Sometimes a home doesn't sell right away. Avoid the urge to pull your home off the market... be persistent! Generally, there are three reasons why a home may not sell as fast as others. First is location; second is condition; third is the asking price. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Naturally, you can't change your home's location, but you can fix the condition of your home and you can, of course, adjust your price. Throughout the listing process, you need to be constantly comparing your asking price against those of similar properties in your area. It may be time to adjust the price of your home. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Review your selling strategy regularly with your listing agent: Is your house being shown regularly?

As an act of good faith, the buyer will make a deposit with the offer.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>You don't have to accept the offer as is. You may wish to make a counter offer that comes part-way to meeting the offer's conditions.

You may also have to prove that you have title to the property (the buyer's lawyer will check this out when he or she conducts a title search to see if there are any liens on the property, easements, rights of way or height restrictions). Especially in rural areas, you may also be asked to provide a certificate for a well or septic system, stating the system meets local standards.<span style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span>If asked for a "current survey" showing location of all buildings, be sure it is current.<span style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span>This is very important and may cost you a new survey because an old survey likely doesn't show the location of all buildings such as if you added a new shed.<span style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span>Be sure to strike out the word "Current" from survey and list and buildings that are not located on the survey.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>The buyer may also make the purchase conditional on an inspection by a qualified engineer or inspector. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Then on or before closing day, lawyers representing you and the buyer will set up a trust account for the money coming from the sale and will pay off any mortgages you owe on the property. After these are paid, you will receive any money you have coming from the sale. You must deliver the property deed or transfer documents, mortgage details and keys to your lawyer. Your lawyer will register the mortgage discharge and transfer the deed at closing.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>If you're buying a home for the very first time, the process may seem a little daunting.

Thanks to his hard work, diligence and patience, I am now moving in to my first home and could not be happier! I initially discovered Jason online where I found his website easy to navigate and his regular emails of listings allowed me to get to know the local area from out of town. When we met in person, I was impressed with his knowledge and positive attitude and knew that I was in highly competent hands. He is the sort of guy who does not simply tell you what you want to hear but instead listens and goes the extra mile in checking and double checking on important details and information pertaining to the sale. He answered the questions I forgot to ask and was a calm and reliable voice in a process that can be both challenging and stressful. I found Jason easy to reach and very quick to respond to any and all concerns.
