Welcome To Cold Lake We are always happy to see new arrivals to our thriving community! If you are transferring to CFB Cold Lake or just moving to Cold Lake on your own, I'm here to help! My goal is to make your move as stress free as possible. Over the past 22 years, I've assisted almost all of the relocation companies in moving clients to and from Cold Lake. I've studied for and received the RRS designation (Registered Relocation Specialist) and also maintain active membership with both a Canadian DNDIRP Referral Service and a North America wide Referral Service. It's my hope that this website will provide answers and links to most of the questions you may have. If you have an unanswered question, please drop me an email or call me toll free at 1-800-707-8374. I'm only too happy to assist you. One important question to detail is "What would I do for YOU as your Realtor?" A very fair question that I will outline on this page.

1. Review your housing needs with you, so I get a sense of what you are looking for in the market place (IE. # of bedrooms, # of bathrooms, preferred style, age, price range, special family needs, long term objectives etc.) . 2. Start the process of getting you up to speed with pricing in our market place. I will do a "wide" MLS Listings property search based on the home criteria you have provided and send these listings out to you by e-mail, fax or courier. This is done with in hours if electronically or with in 24 hours, if by mail. 3. Set you up on my Cold Lake MLS Listings Home Hunter system with our local Cold Lake Real Estate Board. You will be notified by e-mail immediately when a property is listed on our MLS system that matches your property criteria. These listings are from all companies and all Realtors, to provide you TOTAL MARKET COVERAGE. 4. Review in detail the various location options available to you. With my years of experience in the Cold Lake market, I can advise you as to the good locations along with the ones you may want to stay away from. 5. Review in depth the current market conditions. Not all segments (price ranges) of the market experience the same demand stresses. You need to know our market dynamics. I will provide you net or CD access to MLS SOLD home and property data, helping you to know our market, in side out! 6. Co-ordinate with your relocation company. If this is a corporate relocation, we need to make sure we follow the corporate relocation company's protocols and policies to protect your benefits. I will provide you information on approved lawyers, home inspectors, and other needed parties. 7. Assist in organizing your house hunting trip to Cold Lake , including hotel recommendations and car reservations. 8. Provide information and review issues on an on-going basis. There are always questions that arise, from school and community to the value of pre-approved financing and negotiating strategies. Once You have arrived in Cold Lake 1. Meet with you to review all pertinent information. It's important to make sure everything we have discussed is still relevant prior to looking at homes. I will take you on an area tour to familiarize you with the different subdivisions that exist in the cold lake alberta area. 2. Explore the entire listing inventory in Cold Lake! I'm going to make sure you see everything that meets your property criteria including cold lake mls listings, exclusive listings of other companies, and possibly homes that aren't even on the market yet! We will also explore the options of working with various builders and "going new" if you are so inclined. 3. Arrange for the viewing of all properties that meet your criteria. I believe that you have to be in control of the process. My job is to provide you with the menu of what's available and make recommendations; you decide which homes to view or not view. 4. Assist in the preparation of the offer to purchase. Once you have found the right home, we will complete an offer to purchase on that property containing the terms and conditions necessary to protect your interests. 5. Follow-up with your lender, lawyer, and other third parties on your behalf. A large part of my job is behind the scenes making sure that your lender, lawyer and relocation company have the documentation they require. 6. Assist in the removal of conditions and confirmation of the purchase. Once the conditions we have placed on your offer have been satisfied, we will remove them from the offer and confirm the purchase. I will provide forms to do this and will convey the removal to the seller. 7. Follow-up through to possession. My job doesn't end when the conditions are removed. I will be with you all the way through until you take possession of your new home. Following up with your lawyer and the sellers Realtor and lawyer to make sure everything goes as planned.
