 The Philosophy of the Inukshuk
 
We have chosen a great Canadain symbol as a guidepost in our new endeavour.The Inukshuk (pronounced IN-OOK-SHUK) meaning "in the image of man" are unique to the Canadian Artic. They endure as eternal symbols of leadership,encouraging the importance of friendship and reminding us of our independence on one another. The Inuit used the tradional Inukshuk as a compass or guide indicating to the traveller that someone has been down this path before;you are going the right way.It leads you to comfort and safety,it leads you home.

The strength of the Inukshuk also lies within its makeup. Every stone is chosen for its abiltiy to fit in and strengthen the structure.

No one stone is more or less important than another. Its strength lies in its unity,its significance lies from its meaning as a whole.

That, in essence is what we aim to create at Stoneguide Realty Limited.

The stones represent our clients,our partnerships and alliances with supporting industry professionals,our families,our community and each other.It takes all of us working collectively together,to lead you through the safe passage of the home buying and selling process.

OFFER TO PURCHASE FORMBUYING HOME CHECKLISTHOME VALUES
Understanding the Offer to Purchase Form is essential once your house hunting expedition is a success! You have found the perfect home, one that satisfies your needs, most of your wants- and best of all, fits your pocketbook. Now comes one of the most important phases of your home-buying experience: making an offer to purchase the home.If you are buying a home, then, before you decide on whether this home is your dream home, the following checklist will help you look at prospective homes with a critical eye. We suggest printing this page and putting it on a clipboard. When you find a home that really interests you, mark the features you see and note their general condition on this list.Home value sometimes referred to as "Value in Use", is best described as the probable price at which a home trades in a free, competitive, and open market and is synonymous with the market value.

SELLING YOUR HOME - WHEN IS THE RIGHT TIME?HOW REAL ESTATE MARKET CONDITIONS AFFECT YOUR OFFER PRICESTAGING… FOR A FASTER SALE AND HIGHER PRICE
When should I sell my home? Your answer to this question might be right now! If you have taken a job in another city or made an offer on a new home, or had an addition to your family, selling your home fast might be the most important goal you have. Most people, however, have some flexibility when they sell their home. Let us take a closer look at the most important factors that can go into this decision.A hot market is a "seller’s market". During a seller’s market, properties can sell within a few days of being listed and there are often multiple offers. Sometimes homes even sell above the asking price. Though most buyers want to get a "deal" on a home, reducing your offer by even a few thousand dollars could mean that someone else will get the home you desire.There are many television shows today that focus on home staging. If you have not watched any, do yourself a favor and tune in. They all say the same thing: do not even consider putting your house on the market until you have taken a close look at its condition. Experienced sales people know that you only have one shot at impressing potential buyers, so take some time to prepare your home for showings. You will be rewarded with a faster sale and a higher offer.

HOW DO REAL ESTATE PROS PRICE A LISTING?WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO MARKET A HOME FOR SALE?OFFERS AND NEGOTIATIONS
A very accurate saying is that "Any home will sell once you get the price right." Of course, this is usually said from the perspective of dropping a price until it's too attractive to pass up. Actually, the accurate pricing of your home prior to listing is as much an art as it is a science.Marketing a home for sale is quite different from most other types of marketing and advertising. Unlike marketing many products, homes are each unique. Marketing decisions will be based on thorough examination of the home’s features and comparison to the competition in the marketplace. Decisions must also be made concerning improvements that might enhance the home and sell it faster and for a higher price. Whether buying or selling a home, one activity will be part of the process in all cases and for all involved. Let’s look at the offer to purchase contract and negotiation process from both sides
