Ema talks with Grace Simon, a 25 year real estate guru, and Tracy Kambeitz, Real Estate interviewer master. The current data of the market in Ontario shows we are close to a balanced market. A balanced real estate market occurs when the supply of homes for sale closely matches the demand from buyers, creating a relatively stable environment for both buyers and sellers. In this market, neither buyers nor sellers have a significant advantage, and prices tend to be more stable. Howev...

Welcome back to another episode of Homes & Spaces by Ema Dantas. Today, I want to share a personal reflection on something I’ve been observing more and more lately—Power of Sale homes in Ontario. This was expected since the pandemic because of the low interest rates our government offered us. BUT now we are paying the price. Its a topic that’s gaining a lot of traction in the Ontario real estate market — purchasing a power of sale home. If you’re a first-time homebuyer, an investor,...

In this episode Ema explains why Exclusive Listings Agreements do not favour the seller, and why. To put it simply, an exclusive listing agreement the seller is limiting him or herself to working with one agent and his or her buyers. In a non-exclusive listing, your chosen real estate agent is working on your behalf with an army of agents and their clients, so that you home can be sold fast and for the most money. Have a listen.

Tiny Homes have been growing in popularity globally due to their rela...

When thinking about a vacation property, it is important to be armed with the right information. Ema gives you some examples to think about.
When you purchase a home, it’s often recommended that you have a home inspection done. In fact, a typical Agreement to Purchase Form will include a standard preprinted clause with respect to home inspections. This is one of the most common conditions in an offer to purchase a property. Some agents allow their clients to forgo this step. In a competitive market, this is a condition and one that can put the buyer at a more unfavourable position when presenting an offer. So skipping...
Ema is an expert on assignment deals. In this podcast she shares the basics on assignments. With an assignment, the Seller is actually selling their interest in a property (or shall we say, contract with the builder). They aren’t selling the actual condo (as they don’t own it yet); they are selling their promise to purchase a property. When you purchase an assignment, you are essentially stepping into the shoes of the original purchaser. You can’t renegotiate the price or terms of the contra...

With assignment sales are not your regular cup of tea. There are essentially 2 closings: the closing between the Assignor and the Assignee, and the closing between the Assignee and the Builder. With the first closing (the assignment closing) the original purchaser receives their deposit + any profit (or their deposit less any loss) from the Assignee. On the second closing (between the Builder and the Assignee), the Assignee pays the remaining amount to the Builder (usually with the help of a ...
