HST and BC Real Estate

August 10th, 2010
I have been getting so many questions about how the HST works here in BC. Even with all the press releases it still seems to be a complicated subject (which it is). What I want to do is show some real pricing examples below of the cost of HST on New Construction properties. If at the end you are still confused feel free to contact me via email with any questions you might have. kylehisl ...

iPad for Real Estate

August 6th, 2010
Ipad
Apple's iPad will be a perfect addition to any Real Estate agents daily routine. First, the ability to sign documents on the screen instead of having to print off endless contracts will make the profession even more mobile. Especially with apps like Zosh that make signing on the iPad or iPhone so easy. Right now I usually carry a briefcase full of contracts which has to be updated on a ...

July stats 2010

Wow...what a slow July!!! We only had 144 sales in July...we haven't seen it this slow since 2000. No need to panic, should pick up in the fall. A lot of things could be contributing to the slow market. Warm summer, new mortgage rules, higher interest rates and HST. If you are looking to buy a home now is a great time. There is tons of listings on the books, sellers are motivated a ...

OK Tire - Chilliwack

July 17th, 2010
I own a Honda CRV. If you live in Chilliwack you have probably seen it because my face and company info is all over it (my wife hates driving it). I think the best part about owning a Honda, and I'm sure other Honda owners will agree, is how little you have to put into them. I've owned mine since new, 2005, it has 135,000 km, and other than the typical maintenance I haven't had to spend ...

Royalwood Golf Course - Chilliwack

July 12th, 2010
My first game out this year and I chose to play the Royalwood Golf course located just off the Trans Canada highway - Chilliwack. There are a couple courses in town that seem to get better every year and Royalwood is one of them. Their greens, this year, are nothing short of amazing. And really, that's where most of the frustration in the game lies...there is nothing worse than hitting a ...

July 9th, 2010
Hey everyone, just a little heads up that we now have a Mr. Lube in Chilliwack. They are located on Yale road just past 1st and the Southgate mall.

All the guys did a great job, were quick and helpful when explaining things. They we ...
