Home Inspections: Strategic for Buyers and Sellers
We all know that getting a home inspection is an important part of the home buying process. It gives you the opportunity to have a professional go through the property top to bottom to make sure that you have an accurate idea as to the state of the house or condo. While we always tend to associate home inspections with home buying, it’s becoming more and more popular for sellers to include a completed home inspection as well. This could prove to be a strategic move, as it reassures potential buyers that there is nothing to hide. It also points out any current issues that you may be able to use as a tool for negotiating.

The housing market took a bit of a beating, and while it wasn't as dire as the US market, Canada’s housing market, including London, Ontario, saw a few rough years.

When's the Best Time to Leave the Nest?
Remember when kids left home soon after turning 18 to venture out into the world on their own? That level of personal and financial independence has been disappearing from our social landscape for a number of years now. You hear more and more stories of kids staying at home until well into their 20s, and some moving back in their 30s!
