  • We Have A Wealth Of Knowledge And Experience:

    Visit our Resources section for helpful information, tips, and practical tools.

    Selling A Property

    We illustrate how we list a property and give useful tips and advice on how you can support the process by taking charge of the packing and decluttering. Being strategic and proactive is the key to a smooth and stress-free experience.

    Buying A Property

    If it has been a while since you bought your last property, you might be surprised to find out how much has changed. We'll illustrate the process and make sure you come prepared when it is time to do some house shopping.

    Renting vs. Buying

    Both options have many pros and cons. We find it important that you are aware of the rights and responsibilities of each, as well as the prerequisites required to buy or rent so that you can make an informed decision.

    Legal & Tax Corner

    While we are not legal or financial experts, some standard questions and concerns arise so often that we want to dedicate a section to them. As a prudent home buyer or seller,, you should be aware of them and factor them in.

    Packing & Moving Tips

    Granted, we could dedicate a whole website to the art of purging, packing, auctioning, and giving away to a good cause. For our purpose, these tips should get you started; for everything else, we can figure it out together.

    Government Incentives

    There are many incentives in place to help seniors purchase and sell property. Sadly, many go unknown and, therefore, unused. But that is not true for you because you are well-informed and know your options.
