Cheese Fondue - fits into the mid-century modern trend we are seeing everywhere. Did you know that today is National Cheese Fondue Day? It's one of our favourite things to do when we have friends over for drinks and a casual dinner. Put a little Kirsch into the cheese to keep it from getting too thick (and to give it a bit of adult kick!). We're looking forward to having friends over again soon.... #NationalCheesFondueDay #ILoveFood

Thank you everyone for your donations to date! Let’s keep them coming.

With homes doubling as offices for many of us, the way we see our homes (and the way others are looking into them) has changed our ideas of what we want from our spaces. Having an attractive workspace with enough on the walls and in the room to give you good acoustics has become crucial for zoom meetings. Design trends include "On Display" featuring bookshelves with books and display pieces, plants, and carpets.... Other attractive design elements for 2021 are Japandi - a blend of Japanese and Scandinavian design featuring simple shapes, rattan, wood, stone and ceramic. Greys and whites make the look clean and elegant. What do you see in your space for 2021?

Happy Easter Friends!

Here are some great ways to look after yourself during these challenging times. Please #StayHome and #StaySafe .

Are you considering buying a rental property for a steady income stream? There are some serious issues to consider: * Are you prepared for any drop in rental income or emergency repairs to the property? * Are you keeping the current tenants? * Are they paying current market rents?... * Are you going to do the required maintenance or will you be hiring someone to do it? * When the time comes will you be screening prospective tenants or will you hire someone * Are you aware of the tax implications of the sale of the home? * Are you assuming you can gut it and repurpose the use? Think about the zoning issues. * Is the building properly zoned for rental units? Make sure to do your research and financial plans before you jump into any property purchase. Make sure to hire an experienced realtor when you are ready to start looking. We have the knowledge and neighbourhood savvy to help make your new business a success.
