Depends, prices are always better in the fall or winter but it is a more difficult time to move.  It is also a little harder to see what you are buying because of the snow cover and the lack of foliage.  You may be able to negotiate a great deal though, as long as you can accept that you can not see everything.   If you ar...

There are so many questions we recieve on a daily basis but none more prevelant than what is happening in the Real Estate market in Sherwood Park.  This is not only the most frequently asked question but also the most powerful question.  Knowing what homes are selling for in an area allows the Buyer to determine what is the true market value of a home and not pay a penny more then they should.  For the Seller, knowing what is happening with all of their neighbour's homes can help them net more money and we all know that the Seller would rather have that in their pocket vs. the Buyer's pocket. Today, with technology as advanced as it is, we should be able to provide detailed reports to all of our clients with a moments notice.  Now we can.  We now have a system that will keep all of our ...

We currently have a buyer who is looking to buy an older home in the areas of Brentwood, Broadmoor, Glen Allan, Maplegrove, Maplewood ,Mills Haven and Sherwood Heights.  Ideally they would like one with a garage but not essential.  Prefer a quiet street.  If your home requires some updating that is fine as well.  They prefer 3 bedrooms upstairs and the number of bathrooms isn't as important.  They have been fully qualified by the bank and so they are just waiting to find the right home.  If you home matches these criteria and you are thinking about selling your home... please email me today at jason@letstalkhomes.ca or call me on my cell at 780.239.3902 and I would love to speak with you about it.    If your home is currently listed for sale with a Broker, please disregard this post as ...
