Extra! Extra! Read all about it!
The BC Minister of Finance has announced several changes to the Property Transfer Tax program, effective Wednesday, which include:
* A property transfer tax exemption for Canadian citizens and permanent residents who purchase newly-built homes, condos and townhouses under $750,000.
* Purchasers must live in the property for at least one year. This is a potential savings in closing costs of up to $13,000.
* A one percent increase in property transfer tax to three percent for homes which are sold over the $2 million mark.
* The first time home buyers exemption will remain in place for homes under $475,000.
* Buyers will need to start disclosing their country of residence in all property transactions.
* The beneficial ownership of properties held by corporations will also be tracked.
Stay tuned for more information!

What sets us apart?
As a Realtor® we have to set ourselves apart. How do we do it? Thats exactly it, WE!
My team consists of my husband, who attends all open houses, drives me & my buyers around town & is there for peace of mind. My father in law builds all of my signs by hand and drops off flyers for open houses/marketing sometimes walking several kilometers to do so. Not to mention my mother in law who babysits our kids so we can give you our full attention.
Family means the world to me & so do my clients. We treat you as family & care about your transaction from beginning to end and beyond.
As a bonus I am one of Three generations of Realtor's® serving Washington State, Nevada & the Greater Vancouver B.C. Area. Ask me for US Realtor referral.
