M.O.R.E. Questions Answered
(aka: frequently Asked Questions)
How Much Is My Home Worth?
The fastest and easiest way to find out how much your home is worth is by connecting with Meghan to perform a Home Valuation, a.k.a. Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) for your property. These types of reports are very informative for sellers as they detail what homes are selling in your area, for how much they have sold for, how long they were on the market, as well as, identifying any other homes currently for sale in your area.
There are many other factors & details to carefully consider when a Home Valuation is prepared so it is best to contact Meghan for a no obligation appointment to have your questions answered. To choose a time that suits you best, click here for my calendar or feel free to contact me.
How To Sell My Home Quickly?
To sell your home quickly, some of the easiest things a homeowner can do is to enhance your curb appeal, tidy & de-clutter your home, price your home competitively and consider staging services (staging can be partial or full service. Speak to Meghan about the various options that may suit you).
The above are simple tasks that many home owners can accomplish easily. Meanwhile, your agent should also offer some tips & tricks about how to prepare your specific home, have professional photography completed for your listing, create social media content (video & pictures), build anticipation for buyers and so much more.Trust your home sale to Meghan’s professional marketing strategies to get more for your home.
How Long Will It Take To Sell My Home?
Over the past 12 months, the average days on market for homes across Chatham city are approximately 43 days.
How Is the real estate market performing in Southwest Ontario?
The most southwest regions of Ontario are becoming a more balanced market with conservative price adjustments. Though, each area between Chatham to Windsor, has their respective differences, more homes are for sale and higher interest rates are ensuring prices are stabilizing while buyers face less competition. The Chatham-Kent region continues to see the majority of listings sold for slightly less than list price.
Windsor realizes sold prices slightly higher than list prices typically. The differences between Chatham & Windsor areas can, in part, be attributed not only due to increased homes for sale and higher interest rates but also due to pricing strategy.
The real estate market in these areas are dynamic with Chatham-Kent and surrounding areas (like Blenheim, Tilbury and Wallaceburg) showing a variety of property types and price ranges. Home prices in Chatham-Kent and Windsor-Essex range significantly due to diverse housing options from affordable single family and multi-unit residential options to premium properties. For a comprehensive market information, connect with Meghan to understand & choose from a variety of areas.
Best Areas To live in Chatham-Kent?
Young families, professionals and retirees are attracted to the Chatham-Kent area due to housing affordability, small city charm, size of properties and lots, less congestion & traffic, nature trails & beaches, proximity to larger cities & easy access to the 401, as well as, the U.S. border.
Windsor and the surrounding communities boast more amenities (think restaurants, small & large businesses) and a diverse population while also benefitting from easy access to the U.S.
For neighbourhood & city specifics in each region, connect with Meghan to understand your options better.
What are the average home prices in cities like Windsor, LaSalle, Chatham & Tilbury?
*Chatham & Blenheim averages are calculated using data from September 1, 2024 through January 31, 2025.Prices vary depending on an area’s demand, economy and amenities. In Chatham City, the average price point is $431,436 while, Blenheim, a 20 minute drive from Chatham, has an average of $351,792. The surrounding communities such as Erieau, Dresden, Ridgetown, etc, vary greatly in their home prices. Tilbury realizes average home sales of approximately $477,180 due to its close proximity to Windsor and the 401.
*Chatham & Blenheim averages are calculated using data from September 1, 2024 through January 31, 2025. *Tilbury averages are calculated using data from July 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024. *Each region’s averages take into consideration higher & lower-priced properties that may or may not be suitable to your lifestyle. Ask Meghan for a more detailed explanation as each neighbourhood in Chatham-Kent have diverse price points.
Choosing A Real Estate Agent
When selecting a realtor to assist your home sale or search needs, it is important to choose someone who has a deep understanding of the local market (currently lives in the area and/or conducts business there, has lived in the area previously), who has a proven track record of successful transactions (check out their google business profile!). Also, choose realtor who effectively communicates with you so you can understand how to position your home sale or buyer position.Any realtor you choose should also be easy to be in touch with.
Last, but not least, interview realtors, in person, to get a sense of who they are and how they can serve you best. Ask yourself and think about these red or green flags after speaking to or working with any realtor, “Do I get the sense they care about me, my family, our goals or just when they can get paid ?”, “Do they communicate in a easy to understand, professional and timely manner?”, “Did they talk more about themselves than listen to my goals, needs, wants?”
Also, be aware that choosing a realtor from a different city to sell your home – who does not know local market conditions – may negatively impact your home sale. When home buyers choose realtors from different cities to assist in the purchase of a new home, this could result in the home buyer paying more than what they should have. Other times, a local realtor will benefit you because local agents possess regional insight and this provides key information to relocating buyers (think environmental/terrain considerations, quality of homes built in the area, projects/businesses/industries to be built that can negatively impact your new home value, etc).
Alternatively, listing your home with a realtor from a different city can negatively impact your home sale because they may incorrectly price your home too high. This can result in multiple reductions & lost profit, more days on the market and potential buyers considering other properly priced options instead! Other potential negative impacts is the realtor being too busy to accommodate buyer showing requests and/or ineffective marketing to THEIR local market – which may not contain a healthy amount of buyers looking to relocate.
Above all, any realtor you work with should be someone you like & trust to sell or buy one of the largest assets you own or intend to own.
Hidden Costs Of Buying A Home
Home buyers should be informed by their mortgage lender about “hidden” or “not commonly though of” costs associated with buying a home. If that doesn’t happen, here is a quick list of the typical costs that come with buying a home:
1. Home Inspection Fees – A certified general inspector should be hired to examine a home you are interested in and disclose their findings.
2. Lawyer Fees – You should speak with your lawyer to determine their individual fees and how they intend to support you.
3. Land Transfer taxes – This is a fee from your municipality when the property transfers ownership.
4. Property tax adjustments – This is an adjustment your municipality makes to ensure you pay property taxes only for the time you have resided in your new home. Most municipalities are spot on when they make these changes to ownership but it is something you should be mindful of.
5. Title Insurance – This is an insurance policy that protects a homeowner against challenges or claims to the ownership and/or problems regarding the title of your new home.
6. HST on new homes – This is usually included in the sale price of the home.
7. Potential Renovations – Putting some contingency money aside for potential renovations of your home is an effective strategy to ensure your future comfort.
The above is not an exhaustive list but are typical costs usually present in most transactions. As a home buyer or home seller, always ask lots of questions to ensure you know exactly what you are paying for.
Financing A Home Purchase
From fixed-rate to variable rate & Halal mortgages, private lenders and big banks, there are many options and is best to speak with more than a single mortgage specialist. If you need some suggestions for mortgage specialists, contact me to find out my recommendations.
My best advice: Buy a home that does not put a strain on your income if something happens to the economy, your job, your health. Be aware of and understand fully your amortization schedule, interest rate fluctuations and mortgage renewal process. Taking a proactive approach will help you understand your obligations more clearly.
* If you happen to find yourself in a position where you are experiencing financial discomfort or worse, due to high interest rates on your mortgage renewal or otherwise, choose a compassionate, proactive realtor who cares. Connect with me anytime and let’s discuss some options.
