A fire place adds so much warmth to a home. Did you know that the type of wood you burn indoors is important? Always choose hardwoods like oak, hickory, ash, or locust. Hardwoods burn slower and create smaller flames which is exactly what you want inside your home. Stay away from sappy woods like pine for an indoor fire, as the sap can create a sticky build-up in the chimney and congest the flue over time.

What’s your fireplace style? Modern? Rustic? Wood burning? Gas? 🔥

Comment below! Nothing beats the smell of a wood burning fireplace around Christmas time.

LET IT SNOW! (Are you ready?) ❄️

If you live in Canada, you deal with snow and maintaining your property is important. Here’s a quick to-do list to attend to ASAP!

1. Prep your lawn equipment by emptying the gas and storing them properly.
2. Make sure you’re ready to remove snow from your property by having the right shovels on hand, salt for walkways, and a working snowblower.
3. Cover/put away lawn furniture.
4. Trim trees to prevent falling branches that can damage your property.
5. Make sure water isn’t pooling along your foundation with proper drainage

Happy shovelling! ❄️

TO STAGE OR NOT TO STAGE…
 
That should NOT be the question.
 
As outlined in my previous post (5 tips on staging your home), there are many areas of the home that need attention before putting it on the market. Staging prepares your home visually for the buyer. Before anyone even has the chance to see the home in person, they see it online. How many times have you completely skipped over a home because of its clutter or lack of curb appeal? Exactly.

When you look at this image of a living room, what thoughts come to mind? Clean. Spacious. Modern. Room for the dog to roam around. Lots of space for the huge sectional you have. Swipe to see what aspects of this living room make it look attractive to a possible buyer.
 
Hire a stager or do the work yourself – but the bottom line is – don’t rush into having your home on the market without preparing your home FIRST.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions! I’m here to help. 705.795.4007 or send me a DM.
