As a landlord, it is important to know whom you are renting your property to.  Having the wrong tenant costs time and money, neither of which you want to waste.  While there are no guarantees that you’ll find a person that will respect and take care of your property, running a landlord background check and taking the time to check your prospective tenants’ history will likely save you from unnecessary trouble down the road.

Whether your planning on renovating a newly purchased home or updating your family home, making sure you have a realistic and detailed budget is key.  A well-planned budget to follow and modify as needed should be established before any purchases are made or contractors are hired.

You are selling your home and you’re busy getting ready for open houses and private viewings. You know you have to organize, clean, declutter, and clean some more. This is a daunting task for anyone, but when there are kids living in the home with you, this task can seam near impossible.

Buying a condo is often a more affordable option for those looking to purchase real estate but are unable to afford a single family home.  In addition, condos often offer conveniences such as swimming pools and gyms that you might not be able to consider if you owned your own home.  However, there are many important things to look into when considering the purchase of a condo.  

It is no secret to anyone watching the housing market that within just the past year, the sales of new homes have increased to the highest level we have seen in over a decade.  For anyone currently looking to become a homebuyer, this news puts more of a strain on the process, which can quickly lead to heartache and frustration. 

In this current market, you need to be aggressive in your search and in your offers.  There is no time for procrastination.
