So, I had a wife and husband team real estate couple with 22 years experience each come to my home last night for an up to date price check. I know the family so it is a plus. It is also Royal LePage which I have dealt with in the past so that is good as well. I brought them up to date with my experiences last year and two of my art pieces disappearing (one Robert Bateman and the other a mid 1800). That still annoys me. I was told that the market has never been as bad as it is right now. The only bonus is that Niagara Falls is even cheaper. Spring had picked up, the World series Cup became a stand still and things picked up again when it was over. Mr T's tarrifs then came along and killed the market. Jobs became threatened. When I say Mr T, it is not the A Team, but the Zero team. So there are three ways I can go - Price a bit higher, price lower (but there are no bidding wars) or price the market. I still don't regret waiting until my pets died to sell in a horrible market. They were worth so much to me and I keep my pets for life. They also live for a very long time before I have to make the painful decision.
So, what to do? For now I will hire them to bring anyone who may be interested in my house only. I will find out what the market price is during the end of the week. November will be the testing date. In the meantime, I will re-arrange my furniture once again and plan each room. I will do some small upgrades.
I will then decide if I am going to put up the sign in the Spring. I probably will unless it plummets. I am hoping the Mr T, loses the mid term elections and that he is impeached. I have never hoped for this in a democratic country, but Mr T tried to destroy us and so it becomes personal. I don't want harm to come to him - I want Justice to pervail. If he continues to prosper, then I may just test the market again. My plan is to move to Niagara before I need a wheel chair, travel, before settling down with pets once again. My social calendar will be full and it is now, so I don't think that will interfere with re-location.
So for now have a Happy Thanksgiving Canada!!!
