Looking for a Real Estate Team?

Buying a home is a complex process, and having a team of professionals on your side can make it much easier. When building your team, make sure to include a real estate representative, a mortgage lender, a home inspector, and a lawyer. With the help of these professionals, you can find the home of your dreams and ensure a smooth and successful buying process.

What to Expect from your
Real Estate Representatives

A good real estate representative should be able to save you time and trouble. When discussing your needs with a representative, be as specific as possible about the kind of home you’re looking for and your price range. If you’re not certain, set aside some time for your representative to help you determine these.

He or she will know what is on the market, in which neighborhoods and at what price, and can save you time by pre-screening home listings — screening out the ones that don’t meet your needs or budget. Then he or she can make appointments for you to see the homes that suit you.

A real estate representative can also assist you in making an Offer to Purchase. Representatives are aware of current market conditions, what price offers are realistic and what conditions to include in any offers.

From hardwood and tile, to carpet and luxury vinyl, there’s a spectrum of styles, colours, textures and patterns to choose from these days. Upgrading your out-dated flooring is a sure-fire way to see a return on your investment.

Winter has arrived with a vengeance in Calgary– brrrr!

Winter’s icy grip has firmly settled in Calgary, and as temperatures plummet, you might find yourself detecting unwelcome drafts and leaks around your windows. The repercussions of improperly maintained windows extend beyond mere discomfort – they can take a toll on your heating bill. Ensuring your windows are in top-notch condition not only slashes energy costs but also guarantees a cozy haven for you and your family during the chilly winter months.

A swift and uncomplicated method to assess your windows is to hold a lit match near their edges on a blustery day. Should the match extinguish and the smoke dance in the wind, it’s a clear sign that it’s time to invest in new weather stripping. Even if that seems a bit extreme, taking a proactive stance in addressing these issues promises long-term benefits that you’ll undoubtedly appreciate.

For expert guidance on real estate matters in Calgary and its surrounding areas, look no further than Bill Brandsma Real Estate. Call 403-606-1765 to connect with a team dedicated to ensuring your real estate experience is as smooth as possible. Don’t let the winter chill catch you off guard – secure your comfort and savings with well-maintained windows.
