Although Costco reps have been very mum on the subject, building permits, don’t lie! #Brantford is finally getting a #Costco! Who's pumped?

I know android users are going to come at me and say that they were doing it 50 years before the iPhone users… But you still come up as green texts and that’s just never going to be okay with me😂 And of course, I’m using the term “hack” very loosely… Enjoy! #iPhoneHack

One of the best parts of the real estate industry is that things are constantly evolving, but that means the ways agents circumvent the system to benefit themselves is also constantly evolving. #RealtorProblems #RealEstate

Realtor.ca is BROKEN! The website and system behind it went through some upgrades, and unfortunately there are some pretty major bugs happening right now. The beds/baths showing up as “0” for new listings and more #RealtorProblems #OntarioRealEstate #Brantford

Headed in to June with some more tricks in the bag... Looking forward to what the team and I have coming up next! We are absolutely nothing without our clients though! I'm forever grateful for their trust in me to get 'ish' for them every week. #IAmBecauseWeAre 💎

You do what you have to do to get the deal done. Even if that means driving to another city, picking up the #listingagent, and bringing them back to #Brantford so they can present your client's #offer. I do actually enjoy #SellingSunset though :)

By-laws we can get behind! This is the #Brantford code. 👑🚲 #HiNiceShoes

I grew up in #Brantford even before the population signs read 82,001 (the mayor and his wife had a baby that year I think...) If you are planning on moving to any city/municipality, you might want to dip into their #OfficialPlan #OntarioRealEstate #PopulationGrowth

I have had some fantastic transactions with some awesome out of town agents! That being said if you list with someone from out of town you need to make sure your property is getting in front of the most amount of eyeballs possible. #GTA #TRREB #BRREA #Brantford #OntarioRealEstat

The Mayor of Brantford, Kevin Davis just got STRONG He’s one of 26 mayors that have been given the “strong mayor” designation and with that come some pretty beefy abilities. #OntPoli #Brantford #Mayor #StrongMayor

#Mortgage Pre-Approval 🤝 Rate Lock It's not just the bank saying they will #finance you, your mortgage pre-approval means that rate is locked in for at least 90 days (lender dependent)

You have often heard me refer to an offer as a "Bazooka Offer". This is an offer with an absolutely astronomical price where there aren’t any comps whatsoever to justify it. However, there might be intangibles that make the house more valuable to another buyer.

#Emoji Is Just as Valid as a #Signature, Costing a #CanadianFarmer $82,000 #Technology is widely used for convenience (in #OntarioRealEstate especially), but sometimes if it is not used correctly it can cost someone a lot of money.

Got Fines? 🏡🥛🤦🏻 A 20k fine slapped down on a Kamloops, BC #RealEstateAgent who decided to help themselves to a drink of milk straight from a carton while he was waiting for his clients at a showing. #BCRealEstate #OntRealEstate #GotMilk #BrantfordRealEstate

Canadian Properties Group held an open house on February 8th 2024 to give further details about what's being proposed for 50 Market Street S in #Brantford, ON #DowntownBrantford #FreshCo #Development mattallman.com/50-market-stre…

If I've learned one thing in my years of #realestate it's this: Mapping out one coffee shop between each showing is more important than how many sq. feet are in an acre. #NatureCalls. (43560 sq. feet by the way) #OntarioRealEstate #Brantford

I break down the new #development that includes 245 residential units proposed for the old Victoria School and Robert Moore Park property at 40 Richmond Street in #Brantford. mattallman.com/40-richmond-st…

On the listing side of things, I understand protecting your clients interests. However, when you’ve blown through an offer date and didn’t get anything that met your clients expectations, it’s time to shift the strategy. #OntarioRealEstate #Brantford

Who benefits from the rate drop announcements? For most people it is going to be business as usual, but for some, the small drop could be the difference in getting into the market! #RateDrop #BOC #InterestRates #OntarioRealEstate

Your home inspection clause is not a get out of jail free card to back out of a deal. Even if your client has changed their mind there is still an obligation to the contract they signed. Look up Bhasin v. Hrynew (2014) for case law reference #OntarioRealEstate #CaseLaw
