Most people walk into a negotiation thinking about one thing: price. The best deals usually start somewhere else.

Before you talk numbers, figure out three things:

What the other side really needs. A seller who has already bought may care most about timing. Another may want a clean, firm offer. It's not always about the money.

Your walk-away. Decide your top number before you start. It's much easier to stick to it when you've set it ahead of time.

What else is on the table. Closing date, conditions and what's included can all make an offer stronger without changing the price.

Buying or selling soon? Send me a message or comment "NEGOTIATE" and I'll help you plan your approach.

"The rent covers the mortgage, so it pays for itself." I hear this a lot about duplexes. It's not the whole picture.

Here's the simple math I'd run on any small rental:

Income: add up all the rents, then take off an allowance for months when a unit sits empty.

Costs: subtract property taxes, insurance, any utilities you pay, repairs, a reserve for big items like the roof or furnace, and management.

What's left is your net operating income. Take off your mortgage payment, and that's your real cash flow.

One more: divide net operating income by the price to get the cap rate. It's a handy way to compare two properties side by side.

Looking at a duplex or triplex? Send me a message or comment "NUMBERS" and we'll run it together.

"Should I wait until spring to sell the cottage?" It's a fair question.

Spring brings more buyers, and it also brings more competition. Fewer people shop in winter, but the ones who are looking are usually serious.

If you're thinking about selling, here's how to get ready:
• Show it at its best: use your best summer photos, plus current ones so buyers know what to expect.
• Keep it ready: keep it heated or properly winterized, with the driveway plowed for showings.
• Have the paperwork: well, septic, permit and dock records ready to share.

Thinking about selling your cottage or waterfront home? Send me a message. It's quiet and there's no pressure, and I'll give you an honest take on timing.

Looking at waterfront on Lake Simcoe? Before you fall for the view, ask three questions.

Can I build what I want? Docks, boathouses and additions near the water often need approval from the conservation authority. Around much of Lake Simcoe, that's the LSRCA. Check before you count on that new dock.

Was it done with permits? If the property already has a dock, boathouse or bunkie, ask whether it was permitted.

How do I get there? A year-round town road and a private or seasonal road are very different. It affects financing, insurance and whether you can get in all winter.

These questions are easier to answer before you buy than after.

Looking at a waterfront property? Send me a message or comment "WATERFRONT" and I'll tell you what to check.

Thinking about trading the city for a country home? Love the idea. Just plan for a few costs that city homes don't have.

Water and septic: you'll want regular water tests, often a filter or treatment system, and septic pump-outs every few years.

Heating: many country homes heat with propane, oil or wood. Ask the seller for a year of bills so you know what winter really costs.

Roads and insurance: a long driveway means plowing all winter, and insurance can cost more when the home is far from a fire hall or hydrant. Call your insurer before you firm up your offer.

Build these into your budget up front and there are no surprises later.

Want the list of questions to ask on a country home? Send me a message or comment "RURAL".

Thinking about buying a fixer-upper? The first question isn't "how much will the reno cost?" It's "am I selling it or keeping it?"

Fix and sell: you get your money back sooner, but taxes, selling costs and timing all cut into the profit. If the market shifts while you're renovating, that matters too.

Fix and keep: rent brings in monthly income, and the property can grow in value over time. But you're the landlord, with everything that comes with it.

Your answer changes everything: which house you buy, how much you put into the renovation and how you finance it. Talk to your accountant about the tax side before you start.

Not sure which fits you? Send me a message or comment "FIXER".

If you've been waiting to buy in Durham, this is worth a look.

TRREB's September 2026 numbers for Durham Region:
• 1,834 new listings and 552 sales, so buyers have plenty to choose from
• The typical home was $805,600, down 5.2% from a year ago
• Homes sold in 30 days on average, for about 98% of the asking price

What that means: you have more choice and a bit more time than you would have a couple of years ago. But homes are still selling close to their asking price, so a well-prepared offer will do better than a lowball.

Want to know how this applies to the homes you're watching? Send me a message or comment "MARKET".
