Family Tree Real Estate

10/08/2026

I checked the stats, and 23% of all homes sold in 2025 sold in the fourth quarter, October through December! Life doesn’t stop when the holidays approach, and neither does real estate.

But, even if you’re not planning to sell until next year, now is a great time to start the conversation with your realtor. We’ll help you figure out what needs to be done so you can work through your list over the winter, and avoid a scramble in the spring!

How many of us have basements that we don't use? I know I do...the grandkids go down about once or twice a year and that's it. Here are some suggestions from Royal LePage Canada on how to make your basement cosy and a place you want to use.

A finished basement adds usable square footage without adding to your home’s footprint. In a country where winters mean months spent indoors, that additional…

ONTARIO LANDLORDS & TENANTS — BIG CHANGES ARE COMING SEPTEMBER 21! 🏠

If you own a rental property — or you’re a tenant — there are some important changes to Ontario’s rental rules you should know about.

Some changes already took effect July 1:

✅ Tenants gained new rights around installing their own air conditioning.
✅ New rules apply to payment agreements involving rent arrears.
✅ The deadline to request a review of a Landlord and Tenant Board order was shortened from 30 days to just 15 days.

But there are MORE changes coming September 21st.

One of the biggest?

If rent isn’t paid, the notice period on an N4 is changing from 14 days to just 7 days for monthly and yearly tenancies.
There will also be clearer rules around what qualifies as persistent late payment of rent.

And there are changes affecting what happens when tenants want to raise other issues during a hearing involving unpaid rent.
Whether you're a landlord or a tenant, these changes could have a real impact.

Save this post and share it with someone who owns or rents property in Ontario.

And as always, rental laws can be complicated — so for your specific situation, check with the Landlord and Tenant Board or get appropriate legal advice.

Keep in mind, closing costs are more than just your down payment
