With inflation and increased interest rates, it may seem that home buying may be out of the question. However with a bit of research, a trust-worthy real estate agent and mortgage broker, you can definitely find a property that is a fit for you. You just might have to think ‘outside of the box’ a bit…

If there’s a particular neighbourhood you’d love to live in but a house needs improvements, Archive can help with that. With years of experience in home repair and renovation, we love a good challenge. We can create the space you need and make a house the perfect place for you.

If you’re a current homeowner and thinking about selling, it’s a good idea to take a look at any repairs or upgrades that can be done to increase the market value of your home. Getting a head start to prep your home for sale is advantageous. With energy efficiency and net zero homes (and rebates!) becoming more popular, it’s never a bad idea to improve your home.

Maybe you’re thinking, how can I afford any of this? The best idea is to know your budget; whether you’re a home buyer or seller. Know what you can afford and stick to it.

Over the years, we have collaborated with Wendell Mortgages to explore the many avenues available when it comes to mortgages and home improvements. We came up with our three-part Mortgage Moment series covering options for first time home buyers, current home buyers and those looking for secondary properties.

Buyer or seller, you have the opportunity to build your history. Let’s get rolling!

The Spring market is notoriously a busy and important season in the real estate industry. As the sunnier skies promote optimism and growth, you may be starting to think about planning a move into a new home, doing home renovations in anticipation of selling or even searching for a secondary property to enjoy the summery months in.

Currently, inventory and interest rates are low and the market is tight. With an increase in remote work during the last few years thanks to the global pandemic, people can now work wherever they please as long as they have a steady internet connection. Houses on the market are getting multiple offers, sometimes over and above asking price and going quickly. But don’t let that scare you!

With a bit of research, a trust-worthy real estate agent and mortgage broker, you can definitely find a property that is worth the fight. You just might have to think ‘outside of the box’ a bit…
