Victoria Real Estate Update July 2023: Sales Reflect Summer Trends &  Getting Family Members Enthusiastic about Moving

Getting Family Members Enthusiastic about Moving You may be excited about selling, but do your other family members share your enthusiasm? Kids can often be hesitant about, or even resistant to moving. That can make the selling process more stressful. The good news is, there are ways to get everyone in the family keen on the idea. One effective technique is to get everyone involved in the planning process, especially kids. Seek their input. Keep them informed. Include them in conversations. The less of a mystery the move is to them, the more comfortable they’ll feel about moving.  When it comes to kids, another technique is to show them what their new neighbourhood is going to be like. (Or, if you haven’t purchased yet, show them the areas you’re targeting.) Point out schools, parks, and other neighbourhood features. That will build their anticipation. For those family members who seem particularly troubled about moving, take the time to have a frank conversation with them. Let them relate their concerns. Sometimes having their concerns heard is all that’s needed to help them feel better about selling and moving. Of course, there’s no perfect solution. But, these techniques can help get everyone in your family keen on the adventure.   CURRENT INTEREST RATES VICTORIA REAL ESTATE SEARCH FEATURED HOMES Who wants to join me on the next fitness challenge?  It's Online & starts August 14th for 8 weeks, gym or no gym.  Let’s GOOO!!

Schuller When you find a professional you trust, you want to get as much value from that person as possible. That is especially true if that professional provides excellent service. That’s why you don’t get your lawncare done by a great contractor only once. That’s why you don’t hire a fantastic investment advisor and use them for just one transaction. That’s why you don’t see a wonderful dentist and never make another appointment. And yet, when it comes to real estate, many people wonder what more they can expect from their real estate professional once their home has been sold and their move is done. The answer is: plenty. Indeed, I’m a huge believer in providing ongoing services to my clients in the months and years between their moves. Those services can include annual checkups, client appreciation events, being available when they have real estate questions, and, of course, these regular newsletters. The bottom line: I’m here for my clients. So, think of me as you would your favourite mechanic, investment advisor, dentist, or any other professional you count on.     Diana Winger Personal Real Estate Corporation  eXp Realty | CNE, SRS, SRES, ABR Mortgage Agent Level 1 Valko Financial LTD #13047 Dominion Lending Centres  HomeVictoria.com | Housesforsale369.com  WingerRealEstate.ca | SearchBestMortgages.com (250) 588-8839  (226) 705-3369 ON YOUR TEAM!
