Great Headline in the Star this morning, "MARKET ON ROBUST REBOUND - Housing sales keep climbing, fuelled by low interest rates, and solid consumer confidence".

The last couple of notices/blogs that I have sent out have been very positive. During my open houses, buyers still are asking about the recovery from this mess that we were in. It wasn't even a mess but the media was exploiting in the U.S.A. With a little bit of the regular summer slow-down now upon us, homes are selling quite quickly if they are priced correctly. We are still seeing homes flying off the shelves and multiple offers keeping our inventory low with buyers jumping at anything new that comes on the market. Part of this seems to be that the buyers may be fearing that interest rates are going to go up next year and therefore are buying now rather than waiting for next year.

Those who chose to consider my advice have been the lucky few. Those of you who have chosen to wait until "the prices of homes come down some more" , I'm afraid you are in for a rude awakening in the next few months. Those homes that are priced well, are in good neighbourhoods in the communities of Mississauga, and are in decent condition are not staying on the market for very long. Choices are few. Buyers are not having the chance to see something a second time. "If you like it, you better be prepared to work on an offer with your agent."

We are firmly in a sellers market. Inventory remains very low. Take a look at the newest Market Watch.

I apologize to all my buyers, but I have nothing new to show you at this time. Watch my Betty's Pic of the Week for the Lorne Park area (updated regularly). I can provide you with access to hot listings (those that come on the market and you get an email immediately).

Do you know of family or friends that are thinking of making a real estate move? Pass along my contact information. Write my contact information in your telephone book under 'R' for 'REAL ESTATE'.

You can contact me at your leisure at betty@bettybart.com or directly at 416 427 1875. I look forward to hearing from all who are interested.

Prestigious Homes in Lorne Park

Prestigious Lorne Park homes for sale and Mississauga Real Estate continue to outperform Toronto Real Estate. The enclave neighbourhood of Watercolours in Lorne Park will continue to draw Buyer prospects from upscale employment fields which include doctors, lawyers, and engineers.

Elegant Lorne Park homes were the hottest on the housing market in the GTA during the first half of this year, according to RE/MAX Ontario-Atlantic Canada.

David Ferrari, owner of RE/MAX Realty Enterprises, Inc., stated "The prices of homes in Lorne Park versus Toronto is significant. You can get a much larger, upscale home in lorne Park than in the Toronto area and a lot more property."

The prestigious neighbourhood of Lorne Park offers easy access to GO services, a great small town feeling with a sceninc walk along the waterfront, and plenty of redevelopment. The QEW runs along the north end of this area. This community is mainly suburban residential in the southwestern Mississauga.

My website is a sought afer resource for the weekly postings of available Lorne Park properties. By accessing Betty's Pic of the Week and signing up for the instantly downloadable report, you can receive up to date information of homes that are available in the Lorne Park community.

I personally update this short list based on what I feel are the best values in Lorne Park at the start of each week.

BASEMENT RENOVATION VALUE

No matter why you need the extra space, a finished basement can almost always benefit you when you decide to sell your house. Surprised? When you compare basement renovations to kitchen or bath renovations, your kitchen and bath will typically always increase your value by 1 or 1.5 times the amount you spend. And while that doesn't always stand true for finishing a basement, it's important to consider this:

A finished basement can be the difference between selling your house and not.

Particularly if you have 1, 2 or 3 bedrooms. Why? Often times a finished basement can be the substitute for the additional bedroom, office space or playroom that your buyer is looking for. Consider newlyweds with plans to have children in the future. A 2-bedroom home may not fit what they're looking for. However, a 2-bedroom with a finished basement allows more possibilities for office space, play space or a guest room that could make the sale for them in the end.

So what are some benefits for you as the owner of the home?

Well, it's an investment that you can enjoy while you're in the home for the same reasons your buyer may like it. But it's also a big change by way of more space that doesn't involve a large amount of construction like adding a bedroom would. It not only increases the value of your home, but it broadens the pool of buyers who will consider it. Your home becomes more marketable. Renovating the kitchen or bath increases the value of the home, but it does not increase the number of shoppers particularly. If we consider a two bedroom home, a finished basement can attract families looking for 2, 3 or even 4-bedroom homes depending on how large the basement space is.

It's always important to consider renovations that will be economical, functional and broaden your pool of buyers.

If you would like to discuss the benefits of finishing your basement, or just some ideas as to what should be done feel free to call Betty at 416 427 1875 or just send me an email at betty@bettybart.com and let's chat.
