"Opening the door to your next move"

There are a few differences when it comes to purchasing property in Canada. One of the first things to do is find yourself a realtor that you can work with.
Unlike Great Britain you can approach any realtor and still purchase a property that is being advertised by someone else.
Most people considering emigrating start looking at properties long before arriving in Canada, we did. We used local agents web sites but mostly http://www.mls.ca/ which we found was a great site with all agents advertising in one place, but that is only partly true. MLS is only used by some agents and is not always the most up to date site. Some properties have already had offers made before eventually making it onto MLS and others advertised long after being sold and you will find a lot of the good ones go very quickly, networking amongst the agents is a great way to sell.
The realtor you choose will make all the appointments and take you to view all the properties you choose and will then deal with the selling agent when you are ready to make an offer.
I used Wes Manke, details above, when first arriving in Canada in 2007 and had good service from him so it made sense to use him again to both buy a new home and sell our current house. Again Wes has provided a great service with good communication at all times. Wes will spend time with you to find out what you are looking for. He is even willing to give up his spare time on a Sunday to come and keep me up to date and sign anything that needs signing.
So if your looking to buy in the Steinbach area and are not already working with a realtor drop Wes an email he would be only too happy to help.

Good luck with finding a buyer. It's always a hassle to get someone who doesn't have to then sell his house to buy yours and so on, and on. I'm building next time. When the kids are out of the house I want something small and well designed with a lot of built-ins. Hope you find just what your looking for too.

very nice of you to give your agent a little shout out. As a REALTOR in Arizona, I like when my clients show their appreciation.

I know you sold your home a while ago, but I just wanted to post a comment. I'll continue to read and see where you end up.
