How do you send a buyer running out the door? Number four, not doing minor repairs. When buyers walk through your house they look at every single detail. Now everyone has little problems with their house, that's not a problem but these little things do add up in the buyer's mind and they don't make a great impression. The more things you have the more things they start looking for. That's why as Realtors we are really good at knowing what things should be fixed and done before you go to market. One nice thing about the Judy Lindsay Team is we have a free handyman service that can come in and help fix these little things to make sure your house shows really well and is going to get you more money.

How do you send a buyer running out the door. Number three, not replacing bad shingles. Along with curb appeal when buyers walk up to your house what takes up a lot of visual square footage is your shingles and even the most novice of buyers will see curled shingles and know that they need to be replaced. They also associate a very high cost to that. Now as a homeowner if you have the time to do it, shingles really don't cost that much to do and now the buyer can walk up to your house see brand new shingles and we can advertise new shingles, getting you more money for your house.

Just flew into Lillooet, British Columbia. What do pilots and Realtors have in common? But first what happened in the Winnipeg Real Estate Market in March. In March in Winnipeg we saw virtually no change in amount of sales over last year however, we did see an 11.7% increase in pricing. In condos, we saw sales decrease 6% and prices up 4.3% As you can see the market is definitely picking up as you go into spring, kind of as expected, still lots of demand just because there's not a lot of houses coming to market. Now what do pilots and Realtors have in common? Well, it's experience. In pilots they judge you by how many hours you have, as a Realtor it's how many transactions so not necessarily how long you've been in the business for but how many transactions you've done and by doing more transactions or having more hours as a pilot this allows you to see a lot of different situations and know how to react in those situations and as a person who's looking to hire a Realtor this is really important because in a normal situation no problem, no problem as a pilot with lower hours however if you get into certain situations it's important to have someone who has the experience to know what to do to make sure your going get the best results.
