A respectful balance

Your success depends on finding the right balance between emotions and practical considerations. Emotions are essential – how would you ever leave behind a beloved home without the drive to move forward in our lives; how will we know we’re done if our heart didn’t make the connection that tells us we’ve found the perfect home? Every decision must also include due diligence on issues that are necessary to protect you, your investment and your property.

Due diligence entails everything from workable financing, access to the amenities you rely on, a thorough property inspection, professional legal support, and an exit strategy for when you decide to sell. I want you to make both a solid investment decision and acquire your perfect home.

Working with me, you’ll have the opportunity to see a variety of homes that meet your criteria. You’ll receive advice on all the precautions required to safeguard your investment; a history of the home with respect to its construction, ownership, time on market, selling/purchase prices, and assessed worth. I’ll also make sure you’re aware of any plans the municipality has for the immediate area, potential zoning changes, applicable building

schemes (restrictions) and title covenants and right of ways. I’ll listen to your needs and gently ‘test’ your conviction, ensuring you consider all the implications of your choice on your lifestyle and financial security.

Emotions are an essential ingredient in evaluating a new home. It’s essential, however, that they’re accompanied by a thorough investigation and assessment of the practical implications of your choice. I’ll take all the steps necessary to back your hearts’ desire with actions to ensure you’re protected.
