What absolute poppy cock!
If I was earning $1,000 per hour (better than the Bay Street lawyer who abandoned his flooded Ferrari) do you think I would be preparing your artwork and property brochures, Running to Business Depot to bind booklets and print evaluations; Taking Video classes in editing and your virtual tours almost by candlelight?
Do you believe I would be standing outside houses on weekends presenting multiple offers?
No, but it sounds sensational doesn't it!
Do you want a recruit who license is from last Wednesday handling your real estate transaction? Well, they are on a salary.
No, You want a seasoned experienced ethical and proven agent.
Because in reality, we have talked and planned for months, painted and staged, inspected and tested, long before the sign went on the lawn.
Let's put some truth back in Real Estate.

Buyers Target Private Sellers because they save more!
When does it pay to go after a Private Sale or Mere Listing?
When they are negotiating for themselves..
“The average reduction from the private seller’s asking price and the price paid was 8.7% which is a significantly larger discount than the market average of just under 5% over the same period.
“Several people said that they actually targeted private sales because they knew they would buy more cheaply if they didn’t have to negotiate through a professional agent and in a couple of instances boasted that they had saved more $60,000 by buying privately.
What's the logic of that?
“In all but two cases the buyers considered that they purchased their property more cheaply because there was no agent involved”, he said.“When asked if they took into account the fact that the seller wasn’t paying an agent’s fee, every buyer surveyed said yes and that they expected to and in most cases did negotiate this amount and more off the price of the property.“Several of these buyers even stated that the seller willingly offered up that they would look at a lower price because they weren’t paying an agent.http://www.cprea.com.au/real-estate-accreditation-blog/?bp=23&nid=7717
So if you are selling and you want more; use a full time REALTOR

Whisper Listings Listings for Luxury Homes
Recently a Hollywood movie star sold her house in a whisper listing. Yes, You can have a look now at Jennifer 's House http://variety.com/2015/dirt/real-estalker/jennifer-lopez-pocket-lists-hidden-hills-estate-1201419521/ but Toronto has more millionaires per capita than any other city in North America. http://www.macleans.ca/news/canada/99-reasons-why-its-better-to-be-canadian/
So What is a POCKET LISTING? Simply put, I protect your privacy.
It is a Listing that at this time the Seller has no intention of placing on the open MLS.
These are listings that I sometimes have that are in better closed neighbourhoods. This may be because of school district or simply pricing. [or the owner's privacy]
We have met at an open house and a specific buyer that wants this particular subdivision. There are very few or none available. I will write and canvas the individual homes for pocket listings.
Notes and Direct Mail; Receiving a few replies will lead to previews of specific properties, that will agree to showing their home discreetly.
These one party signed exclusive [pocket] listing agreements, may prove suitable or may not. They nevertheless become available inventory to my clients.
What are the advantages?
Some want privacy...
Some do not want the open MLS knowing they are for sale
No people [shoppers] through the property that are unqualified to make the purchase.
Are you ready to be previewed for Whisper Listings?
Call Now.... If its busy call back

I have an agent but he's busy
Are you under contract or intending to use another realtor?
" Yes I'm working with an agent. I like to look at places before I call him. I don't want to waste his time. Anytime after noon will work for me. Can you tell me what the condo fees include, what the tenets pay in rent, how long have they been there?"
How would you respond?

We have time to sell Etobicoke Homes for Sale
Called a FSBO today because clients I HAVE want to see the house. After a few preliminary questions...
FSBO: Do your clients need to sell their house?
Me: No, they are first time buyers
FSBO: Just so that you know our story, we've bought a house and we're not moving into it until June, so we don't have to sell. We've told all the agents this.
Me: (smh) You will have to sell in a few months
** listing to the bottom of the pile**
Me: Out of curiosity, Why are you selling on your own?
FSBO: To save money, we're not in a rush to sell
FSBO: To save money, we're not in a rush to sell
I felt like telling her they've told every agent who's called they're going to be desperate in a few months and more than likely are going to lose way more as a result.
[Still shaking me head.]
The reality is if my Buyers under contract can create an advantage and SAVINGS, when there are no customers coming to buy your home... then we will be back in a few months and see if you are still here.
Time to call a real estate agent; ask for references and interview in person.

What will happen in Toronto Real Estate 2015?
We are bullish and optimistic for the real estate market in 2015 because people consider Toronto ON a destination and an employer.
WHY?
We have first class universities; unmatched health care (PAID FOR) New start up companies are venturing north for technology (WESTERN University and Google in Guelph Kitchener) Film Industry is strong here! Our real estate values and Banking Systems are secure and confidant.
Vacancy
As more people arrive in the Toronto GTA Vacancy becomes an issue. Toronto is currently at 1.8% that are vacant even with 20,000 plus units added annually.
The affordability of Condo units as a purchase allows many to move forward to own their own space in Toronto.
Institutional Builders IE Greenpark, Cadillac Fairview, are not building apartment buildings to add to the rental pool. The City of Toronto and the Municipal Housing Authority have no budget to repair their existing housing stock. Nevermind building rental inventory. Two buildings ( Urban Corp ) just converted their projects to rental stock.
All of the slides contained in this presentation are available to you for use. They are from the Fourth Quarter update and Forecast by Canada Mortgage and Housing.
Would you like to talk about any of the material here?
The acute shortage of detached homes with the 416 will continue as demand heightens this spring. Townhouses and semi will share the same enthusiasm
