[FALL] With Fall Just Around The Cornerthere is plenty that needs to be done. Please take a few minutes to read our tips for preparing your home for fall.

Take a walk through your house inspecting all doors, windows, hinges and locks. You should replace anything damaged.
Change your furnace filter. Its a simple, yet important thing to do. In fact, you should remember to replace your air filter once a month or at the very least once every season. You will find your home has cleaner air and air better circulation.
You should look at your garage door(s) to determine whether or not you need to make any repairs before the cold weather arrives. Make sure to inspect the panels for maintanance purposes and automatic door openers, safety measures and openings.
When it comes to dusting be sure to let gravity help, such as dusting the picture frames & plants first, followed by the tables and chairs then baseboards and trim. Always vacuum last as dust settles to the floor.
If you found it cold in your home last year, perhaps a check into getting more installation in the attic or caulking the exteriors of the window frames to prevent drafts.
Make sure to check your Furnace; turn your furnace on and make sure its working before the cold weather arrives. Chances are you will smell an odd burning smell at first but thats because your firing up the furnace for the first time likely since the early spring and dust and cobwebs could be burning, no cause for alarm(but monitor it). Remember to open a window or two to help the smell pass, if the smell does not pass, shut down your furnace immediately and call in a professional to take a look. Its better to be safe then sorry! Its a better idea to have a professional in to clean and tune your furnace in the fall prior to firing it up for the first time.
A home with central heating can lose up to 60% of its heated air before that air reaches the vents if your ductwork isn't well connected and insulated. Make sure to check your ducts for large gaps and cracks so your not wasting money and don't end up with cold spots and a chilly house! Another ducts fact is having your ducts vacuumed out once every year to ensure dust and hair is removed, as it gathers and can cause breathing problems and can make you more prone to getting sick.
If you have a chimney, don't forget about it! chimneys don't need to be swept every year, however they should be inspected before use at the beginning of the season. To keep out cold weather, remember to close the damper when the fireplace isn't in use.
Remember to check your smoke alarms every season, a lot run on batteries and most have a battery back-up and need to be maintained for proper safety. The batteries NEED to be "tested" regularly! Your smoke detectors on the other hand have a shelf life need to be replaced every ten years.
While your at it; checking your Carbon-Monoxide detectors should be important. Each home should have at least one!
Once the leaves fall, you should remove them and any other debris from your home's [Leaves in Gutter] gutters.Leaves and other debris can lead to backed up gutters and freezing. Both can be very dangerous. Gutters are designed to carry water away from the actual foundation of your home. If your gutters are compromised due to objects &/or leaves/debris, flooding can happen.
It's good to grab some fall fertilizer for your grass and gardens to cut down on weeds as well as make your grass green for Spring.
Fall means cooler weather, cooler weather means, less of a need for your swimming pool. So make sure to have your pool properly closed. If you cant personally close your pool, make sure to hire professionals who can.

Honda of Canada was welcomed into Alliston in 1986. It's expance covers 450 Acres or approximately 1.8 km/sq which encompasses 2 vehicle assembly plants (that house the Honda Plant in Alliston in the Town of New Tecumseth production of the Honda Civic and Acura CSX, MDX, and ZDX models), a stamping plant, recreation facility, Full sized NHL arena, fitness centre, baseball diamond and volleyball nets.

Alliston Real Estate has improved from the injection of this vehicle manufacturer into our economy consideralbley, and as such The town of new Tecumseth, made up of Alliston, Beeton, & Tottenham, has grown. There was a large growth of Houses and Homes as well as a large influx of new residents to help out the rental market in Alliston as well.

The saying holds true, "without business, there can be no growth"

Currently, the two main plants have approximately 4600 employees and have an annual capacity of 390,580 cars per year. Plant 1 was built in Alliston in 1986. A stamping and bumper painting line was added in 1989. Honda's second plant in Alliston began production in 1998, originally Building Honda Odyssey vans for the 1999 model year. Production of the Odyssey in Canada stopped in 2004 to make room for the Ridgeline. Production of the Honda Pilot in Canada stopped in 2007 to allow Civic sedans to be built in Plant 2.

In May 2006, Honda announced it would build a CAD$154 million engine plant in Alliston, Ontario, to supply engines for the Civic model. The plant opened in the fall of 2008.

November 12, 2008, saw the end of Ridgeline production at the AllistonAssembly facility. Ridgeline production has been moved to Honda's Alabama assembly line. A total of 3,791 units bound for the Canadian market, 3679 units bound for the American market, 551 Alliston Honda good news for Real Estate units bound for the Mexican market, and 130 units bound for South America have been built to date for the 2009 model year. The discontinuance of Ridgeline production will make room for more Civic production at Plant 2.

The sudden dip in the economy played a major role in lowering production in Alliston. On January 29, 2009 Honda announced further reductions in production at the Alliston plant. 9,000 fewer vehicles will be produced through to March, 2009. "One assembly line at the facility went from two daily work shifts to one. Output of Civic and Acura MDX models made on the line were halved from 800 units a day to 400 units. Honda also took four non-production Fridays in February."

This dip in the economy also effected houses in Alliston and throughout New tecumseth, but properties have since bounced back and the town real estate maket is back in full swing!

Helpful Tips For Sellers

14 IMPORTANT FACTS TO CONSIDER BEFORE YOU TRY TO SELL YOUR OWN HOME

Occasionally, one can see "For Sale By Owner" signs, and some owners think that selling their own home will not only save them money, but believe they have an advantage over the sellers that have their home listed by a reputable Realtor®. Before you decide to take on this very important and legally complicated process…remember not even most Real Estate Lawyer's recommend selling your own home yourself in today's market. Here are a few of the reasons why:

1. You are limiting your exposure to potential buyers (less than 10% of what a good real estate broker will generate) which theoretically means your home will take ten to fifteen times longer to sell on the market.

2. The longer a home is on the market the lower the selling price is. Why? Because most buyers think that if the home has not sold after this long... there must be something wrong with the home.

3. The selling/buying process begins AFTER the buyer leaves your home. Most sellers think that all it takes is for someone to see their home, fall in love with the great decor... and the offer automatically will follow. Remember that the buying process begins after they leave your home. If a real estate sales representative does not represent the buyer, and they are looking on their own…they usually leave the home and start to talk themselves out of the buying process. If the buyer is represented by a real estate professional Realtors® are trained on how to overcome buyers remorse--a very common occurrence.

4. Because of the limited exposure you will very likely end up with a lower selling price. Remember, in order to generate the highest price possible for your home… selling means exposure. You need the maximum exposure possible, to generate the highest price possible.

5. Most buyers find it extremely awkward to negotiate or even to talk directly with sellers and therefore avoid FSBO properties.

6. Lack of negotiating experience and lack of pertinent information often will result in a lower selling price, or worse yet, a bungled contract and possible lawsuits.

7. The majority of qualified buyers are working with experienced real estate professionals.

8. Many serious buyers will pass by a FSBO home merely because they recognize that it is not in the real estate mainstream, this can some times make them wary.

9. As most local buyers now retain an experienced real estate sales person to represent them as their buyer-agency, you will probably be negotiating against an experienced professional.

10. Expected savings in broker's fees will also be greatly reduced if you offer a selling commission to entice real estate sales representatives to bring potential buyers.

11. If you are planning to use a Lawyer to help you negotiate the offer, then your lawyer's fees will be considerably higher.

12. Only real estate sales representatives have access to the up-to-date market information. News reports cannot approach the timeliness or specificity available to real estate sales people. Further, real estate sales representatives are involved in home sales much more frequently than the average homeowner is. This familiarity leads to a degree of expertise that provides an edge on negotiating and successful selling.

13. You only pay the commission to the real estate broker, if they successfully sell your home at the price you are happy with.

14. Accepting an offer is one thing, ensuring a safe and successful closing is quite another. Real estate transactions usually always have problems on closing. At times, expecting the Buyers and Sellers Lawyer's to fight it out or resolve the problems, can sometimes mean the deal is lost. This is the time that your experienced real estate professional, can be the most important. Your Realtor® can act as a great mediator. Lawyers MUST act only on their client's instructions and are not paid to negotiate.

A Little History

Mrs. Mitchell’s Restaurant opened its doors in 1980, named in tribute to the school’s last and longest serving teacher, for her many years of dedication to her students.

The schoolhouse, was full of rich history from Mrs. Mitchell herself. Built in 1889, Mulmur Township School Section 2 operated for 79 years before closing in 1968. The school and surrounding community together survived the social and cultural upheaval of two World Wars and the Great Depression.

The Orange Lodge across the road played an important role in the lives of early settlers in our region. As a gathering place it was vital to the fraternity and identity of its members. Th e building became home to Granny Taught Us How in 1978.

Both historic landmark buildings were renovated with great care and respect for their heritage. We still enjoy that enduring sense of community here in the hamlet of Violet Hill.

Mrs. Mitchell's Restaurant

If Laurie is your agent, be ready to put up the sold sign. She sold our house in NINE DAYS! Yup, nine days. The first week was bitterly cold and snowy. The skies cleared, the people came and the sign went up. She works sooooo hard. We have just signed our offer on the new property. She had the signback for us and came to the house. We weren't there. She knew we liked CW Coops so she tracked us down there. BINGO, DEAL CLOSED. Thanks Laurie.

Laurie is the best!! We experienced how dedicated she is to her clients. She never let a call go unanswered, she was always willing to listen and give us her professional advice with understanding and honesty. We will always be grateful to have met such a wonderful agent, but also a woman with a kind heart, and so dedicated to her craft. If ever you want a hard working agent with morals and a never give up attitude Laurie is the one. Her knowledge of the real estate world is refreshing and makes you relax knowing she is in control. Laurie & Scott sold our home and in doing this we are now able to move into the house of our dreams. We are happy to say we have made good friends and will always be grateful. Thank you so much Laurie & Scott :) J&D

MAURICE & DEBBIE BLANCHARD

"From the moment I met Laurie, I knew she was cut from a different cloth. The real estate business is one where both knowledge and people skills are a MUST. Laurie is one of the most knowledgable people I've met in the business. Pile that on top of her love for people, and you have a top level realtor.

Laurie has shown that she does more than just care for her clients. Going above and beyond to make sure that the people she meets feel very special.

I'm very lucky I was able to meet Laurie, and her team, as they've been an inspiration and become good friends."

Laurie Mortimer was our Real Estate Agent for the sale of our home in Mansfield. The market was going through a very tumultuous time, and we had some very difficult goals in mind. Laurie worked very hard to sell our property at the best possible price and always kept a positive attitude. In the end she sold our property for a great price!! Thanks Laurie!

Mike & Debbie Sillars

MIKE & DEBBIE SILLARS

As our house is going to close soon and I see the real estate sign every morning (HA) I thought I'd pass on our experience with The Mortimer Team in case anyone is looking for a real estate agent. We dealt with Laurie Mortimer and we had a phenomenal experience. Her and her husband, Scott got us a great price and gave us great tips on home staging and more importantly kept us in the loop the whole time our house was on sale. Nothing is better than a real estate agent who lets you know the feedback from potential buyers. cheers :)

Laurie was understanding to our needs and wants and worked with us to get the best selling and purchase price on quality products in our new home.

We recently sold our home with Laurie. She took the time to explain everything step by step during the process of selling our home. From the moment she walked through our door, it was very apparent that she was the best realtor for the job. If you want a professional, knowledgeable, friendly and approachable realtor to buy and sell your home with, give Laurie a call. She was all this and more with the sale of our home.

To Whom It May Concern:

Laurie Mortimer has been our Real Estate Agent for the past ten years. During that time we have purchased numerous properties including single dwelling homes as well as multiple dwelling properties. During this time Laurie has demonstrated an understanding of what the goals of CLASS are and she researched and found properties that have met our goals.

In general we have found Laurie to be honest, conscientious and straight-forward person to deal with. We have appreciated her integrity and her advice to purchase or walk away from opportunities. These traits make it easy for me to recommend Laurie for your real-estate needs.

Based on our history it is our intention to continue our relationship with Laurie.

The signs are very attractive, prestigious and feature colonial vinyl with solar light atop so they really stand out at night as well. The public is well aware of our brand through our signage, and having our sign on your front lawn will add a prestigious element to your home.
