Protect Yourself From Mortgage Rate Increases!
Historically lenders have only been willing to lock in, or guarantee, the 5-year mortgage rate for about 60 days. The problem with that is, for buyers purchasing a little farther out, a mortgage rate could not be set. The risk was that rates would rise, causing either the home of their dreams to become more expensive on a monthly basis OR even become out of reach because of mortgage qualification guidelines! I've negotiated with a major bank to allow 120-day mortgage rate-locks for my clients. This 120 Day Rate Lock Guarantee could save you thousands of dollars in interest over the five-year term of your mortgage! Don’t settle for what the typical bank offers when you can have access to the best mortgage services in Vancouver and Richmond for FREE!
Selling Your Home >Keeping Your House Safe
Home safety precautions are always important, but it is especially important to make your home "accident-proof" while it is on the market. Many strangers will be coming through your home who won't be aware of the minor hazards that you and your family instinctively avoid.
Go through your home with an eye for potential hazards. Remove the obstacles that you can and post "watch your head" or "watch your step" signs where they are needed. Look for loose banisters, uneven steps, precariously placed plants, art objects or anything else that could fall on someone, wet spots on bath or kitchen floors, toys that someone might fall over and anything that you have to step over or duck under. Make sure that rugs will not slip, especially those at the bottom of stairs. There aren't many things that will more quickly dampen a buyer's enthusiasm for a house than a bump on the head or an unexpected trip down a flight of stairs.
