Age-friendly Cities
by Brandon Buller | Jun 5, 2014 | Seniors Real Estate
Between 2000 and 2050, the proportion of the world’s population over 60 years will double from about 11 percent to 22 percent, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). How well those seniors will live depends greatly on the environment both inside their houses and outside.

by Brandon Buller | Mar 6, 2013 | Market Update
The REALTORS® Association ofHamilton‐Burlington (RAHB) reported today that the average sale price for all property types in February was 4.9 per cent higher than same month last year.

There is much speculation in the news of a slowing market but at this point it is too early to tell. My experience continues to be that if a home is priced well according to neighbourhood and market conditions and has been effectively prepared for sale through staging, de-cluttering and addressing maintenance items that buyers are ready and willing to make an offer. This is evidenced through many multiple offer scenarios for properties througout Burlington and Oakville.
