Can You Really Get A 30-year Mortgage?

Have you heard that the Federal government has made some changes to help first-time home buyers?

The criteria... if you are a first-time buyer AND buying a new build home you are now able to stretch your mortgage to 30 years instead of 25 to help you qualify.

It is a nice gesture, but I don't know how many first-timers are able to afford a new build, however, it does also apply to condos and townhomes which are more within the average first-timers budget.

If you have any questions, reach out to your lender regarding qualifying.

Time Is Flying!

It is truly incredible how time flies... and Sandeep has flown through 5 years in the industry already!

5 years in real estate is honestly the hugest achievement. 80% fail by year 1, and another 80% by year 5. It is a HARD industry to be in, to thrive in, and to keep going.

But... they say statistically if you make it to year 5 then you have "made it"... and Sandeep hasn't just "made it" he is killing it!! Congratulations on 5 years in the industry!!

Up On The Roof

I was meeting with this seller about listing her condo and she mentioned in passing about rooftop access. I stopped dead in my tracks and my brain went straight to marketing.. can we get on that rooftop for the video????? The answer was yes!! I could just see it all in my head with a drone coming out of the shot as we were talking about the neighbourhood of us on this rooftop!

I loved it so much and we sold this condo in only a week!

I Was Called A B**** - My Story

It has been nearly 2 years since this happened, I have shot this video and deleted it many times... but it is a story that stays with me. I was called a b****.

I have branded lock boxes - so that if you show a condo you always know which one to use. I have branded keys - so that if you accidentally leave a showing with keys in your pocket you know where they belong... and well... branding is also wildly important. But ... seeing the branded lock box and keys triggered this agent to say this about me right in front of a doorbell cam at my listing.

When my clients told me what they saw on that cam they were red in the face with anger and I sat there turning flush that someone said that... So... reminder... doorbell cams catch it all, whether it is your opinion of a house or colleague...and... be kind... honestly.. your judgment of others shows more about you than it does about them
