Let’s Get YOU Moving!

Below in the resources section we have some helpful guides that can walk you through the steps. Usually we start by asking about your goals which includes understanding your larget location and budget.

There isn’t a standard renovation that will quickly add value to all homes – each home is unique, and the renovation opportunities are unique too. Generally we can guide you through a few simple updates that can be done quite affordably (like a good cleaning, and some new interior paint) that will help your home sell faster. Before you begin any renovation projects, the best place to start is with a walkthrough of your property to prioritize the projects.

Often, people will refer to seasonality in the market, meaning that it can be slower in the winter months, and faster paced in the spring months. This is not always the case however, as many other factors can also influence the market.

A sellers market is when there are more people looking to buy than to sell. This creates a lot of demand with a limited supply.

A buyers market is the opposite, more people looking to sell than there are buyers. This creates an over supply of homes on the market, giving an advantage to buyers.

Closing costs include things like administrative fees, lawyer fees , land transfer tax, mortgage insurance, home inspection, appraisal fees, and property tax.

Yes, the federal government has created a First Time Home Buyer Incentive to help first time home buyers who would otherwise struggle with hefty mortgage payments. For more information on government incentives click here, or give Castlerock Realty a call:

When you are buying a home there is no cost to you to use one of our agents as your Realtor. A small percentage of the purchase price is used to compensate both the Listing Realtor and Selling Realtor for their services. As your Realtors it is our duty and obligation to act on your behalf and do our best to represent you.

If you are already working with a Realtor you don’t need to call the Listing agent for information about a property. If you choose us as your Realtor, we are able to get you all the information you will need and will be able to show you any properties that fit your criteria.

When selling your home simply give us a call and we’ll set up a time to get together at your home and go over the process together. When you are ready to list your home we will look after everything for you, this includes marketing your home in the most effective way possible to dealing with offers, negotiations and conditions on offers. From the day the listing contract is signed to the day the Offer is complete and the sold sign goes up it is our job to make the process as smooth as possible for you.

When you are ready to buy a home it’s best for us to sit down together and talk about what’s important to you in a house, how many bedrooms, bathrooms, garage, best location, etc. This way we can be as efficient as possible with your search and increase your chances of finding the perfect home.
