When Mother Nature calls...
I'm sure this seems like a ridiculous topic to discuss, but there is a reason for it...using the bathroom in an un-occupied property can be bad news if the water is off...and it's not always possible to tell if a property is un-occupied because it still may be furnished. Make sure the water is on first! Have a question? Email it to brendanstoneman@remax.net
Don't Forget to Claim Your Homeowner's Grant
If you own your home, you should have recieved your property tax notice by now. To avoid the fine, don't forget to claim your homeowner's grant...it's especially easy to forget if your lender handles your property taxes for you. For more info on property taxes and homeowner's grants you can email me at brendanstoneman@remax.net
Foreclosures - You Never Know What You're Going To Get
Take a look at a few photos of the condition this home was in when our clients got the keys to the foreclosure they purchased...they don't always look like this, but they certainly can and there is nothing that can be done about it. For more info on buying a foreclosure email me at brendanstoneman@remax.net
The Selling Price of a Foreclosure

Snowy Saskatchewan
I recently spent a few days in my former hometown of Arborfield, Saskatchewan for a family function. It was great to see the family but I could have done without the 18 inches of snow that fell in 48 hours! Makes me really appreciate this mild BC winter!
