How do you get free legal fees for your real estate sales?

The usual sale process is that you hire a realtor who sells your home for the very large MLS commission then - after you have a signed sale contract, made without any pre-contract legal advice - you also have to pay extra for the legal work.

Would you like FREE conveyance legal fees when you sell your home PLUS free legal advice from the START of the sale process instead of no legal advice until after you sign the sale agreement when it is too late?

If you hire us first BEFORE you sign any realtor agreement then we can give you free legal advice about the sale process from the start and contract wording advice in additional to the usual legal fees for the conveyance closing PLUS you still receive all the services of a MLS qualified realtor you help to choose!

What is the trick ?  No trick - just your opportunity to save a lot of money by hiring us first so we can help you retain a Realtor who will share the MLS commission to cover all your conveyance legal needs, legal advice and legal fees for your sale.

Using our special Lawyer Listing Agreements, that we provide to you, we help you confirm that you the Seller pay nothing extra, just the normal MLS sale commission. The Lawyer Listing Agreements, created by RelexInc.ca, confirm that all the normal sale services of BOTH your realtor AND us as your lawyer, and all your legal fees for legal help and advice from the start of the listing process, are included – but only if you retain us first before you sign any realtor agreement.

I just bought beautiful shades from Budget Blinds, how do I clean them?

If you have a cellular or honeycomb shade, Dust them with a feather duster, or lightly vacuum with an upholstery attachment. For dust inside the cells, a blow dryer on the lowest, cool air setting will blow the dust out. Clean with a sponge and a mild detergent/warm water solution and blot dry. Dry cleaning and ultrasonic cleaning are not recommended. Extra care should be used when cleaning opaque/blackout fabrics, as the fabrics could become permanently creased.

If you have a Solar shade, to keep them clean you would Lightly vacuum both sides of the shade using a brush or upholstery attachment. Softly brush with a mild detergent and warm water solution. Rinse thoroughly and allow the shade to dry completely before raising it. Do not immerse them in water.

How often should I have a Check-up and Cleaning?

There are many factors that will determine how often you need to have your teeth cleaned. For the average patient with good oral hygiene habits, dentists recommend check-ups every 6 months. Regular cleaning can help to identify gum disease, screen for other oral diseases, and can be an opportunity to discuss ways to prevent gum disease and tooth decay. Professional cleaning by a hygienist cleans your teeth in ways home care cannot. Special tools are used to remove stains and hard deposits like tartar and calculus that your toothbrush can’t remove. Your hygienist will discuss habits like smoking and high-sugar diets that can have a negative impact on oral health and will lead to needing more frequent professional care. A patient with gum disease can require cleanings every 3-4 months, sometimes even needing advanced care with a Periodontist (gum specialist). Talk to your dentist today!

My dad’s 2nd wife forged his Will 10 years after he passed away in order to sell his homestead house that she wasn’t on the deed is there anything that can be done?”

Yes you can do something - retain an experienced lawyer quickly! There appear to be a number of legal wrongs including fraud. In British Columbia, estate law issues are handled by the Supreme Court. It is very serious to commit fraud let alone interfere with the last wishes of the deceased.

 In Western Law the Court is neutral thus someone has to make the effort to complain, and to gather and then present the evidence proving the facts. You need an experienced lawyer who understands estate law and the court rules. 

We have decades of successful experience helping thousands of people. We Can help you too anywhere in BC.

What is Sponsored Content?

Sponsored Content is a brand-sponsored article that lives on a media publisher’s website. It looks and reads like the publication's own content but is, in fact, a paid advertisement. It positions the brand as an expert by delivering interesting content that is relevant to a publisher’s audience. 

As we move further down the digital road, it’s important to connect with your audience online. Not merely advertise products and services… spark interest, answer questions, and educate readers with valuable information. One example of this would be for a Realtor to sponsor an article on “How to turn your Basement Suite into a Rental Unit?” A Travel Agency could talk about “5 Best Trips to Cure the Winter Blues!” Maybe a Yoga Studio discusses “The Health Benefits of Maintaining a Good Work-Life Balance?” The general idea is to provide your audience with helpful, interesting, and even must-read articles… sponsored by your business of course! It’s a softer, but more memorable sell, presented in a journalistic style. 

Sponsored Content builds brand trust & credibility when used effectively can drive online traffic and engagement by leaps 
and bounds!!

Why is post-hospital care important for seniors?

Canadian seniors make up 40% of all hospitalizations, and 36% of them return to the emergency room within seven days post-discharge. 

While at least 35% of seniors aged 75+ need home care after leaving the hospital, less than half of them start within three days post-discharge. 

A hospital stay can be a turning point in the life of any person, especially if they are aging or at a stage where their ability to function in everyday life has decreased. When preparing to leave the hospital there is a lot to consider. 

Post-discharge care is the best way to ensure patients regain their strength while keeping hospital beds open for new admissions. Home care assistance can greatly reduce the risk for seniors–even if they don’t feel vulnerable. 

The best way to support recovery—and avoid readmission—is to work with an organization that can continue to provide care at home.

Contact us before Moving from the Hospital to Home to experience the best recovery opportunity.
