www.oakvillebeaver.com The Oakville Beaver, Friday December 29, 2006 - 21 Ringing in the New Year Now that the holiday season has come to an end and another year has drawn to a close, I've had time to reflect upon our good fortune in 2006 and would like to take this opportunity to give thanks to our good friends and valued clients ­ both past and present ­ who have contributed to our success. Throughout the past sixteen years, it has been my privilege to work with many wonderful people. One of the greatest benefits of performing consistently in this industry is the kind of friendships and long-term relationships one develops. Passionate about real estate since my teens, it has always been my goal to be in a position where I am able to make such a positive impact on people's lives. We are blessed to be living in Oakville, a city with such a strong sense of community, yet at the same time, able to offer so many amenities: fine dining, first class entertainment at the Oakville Centre, an overwhelming support for the arts, programs which allow us to express ourselves creatively, esteemed sports facilities, fine schools and a whole host of additional unique qualities that make this an eclec- DAN COOPER Real Estate ...The Bottom Line tic and fantastic lakeside community to live and call home. My staff and I, along with our respective families, wish to extend to you our warmest wishes for a prosperous 2007. As your thoughts turn to what lies ahead in the New Year, I encourage you to reflect on whether your real estate needs are being successfully addressed. If the near future is the right time for you to secure a new home with more square footage, downsize your living space to a luxurious waterfront condo, or to direct your funds into a new investment property, rest assured that Dan Cooper will exceed your expectations and help make 2007 one of the more profitable and rewarding years for your financial portfolio and peace of mind. We wish you and your family a Happy New Year that will find you happy, healthy and living in the dream home best suited to your lifestyle needs.

The lull from sale to closing OK, chances are it's not a quiet period. It will be a time of frenzied packing and reorganization. Just remember not to pack anything that you agreed to sell! And unless you specifically mentioned certain fixtures, everything must remain in place. You are responsible for handing over the home in the same condition it was at the time of closing. This applies to everything that was agreed to in the agreement. If the home suffers a major calamity, you are responsible for telling the purchaser, at which point the purchaser may walk away from the deal and have the deposit returned. The purchaser may also choose to close and receive any insurance proceeds. In this unfortunate event, remember not to make any repairs until you find out what the purchaser wants to do. It's Sold - The Closing Once signing the agreement, both the vendor and purchaser are under a legal obligation to close. If you decide not to for whatever reason, the purchaser has the right to sue. If the purchaser decides to walk away from the deal, you can claim the purchaser's deposit or sue for damages. Just Because Your House Has Sold, That Isn't the End Chances are you've bought a new home, or are in the process of looking for one. While you already have experience with the home-buying process, our comprehensive first-time buyers' guide has all the information, calculators, worksheets, checklists, calendars and tips you need. Also, our office locator will help you find the right RE/MAX agent for your needs.
