Go big, or go small, but go home

You already know that keeping an eye on the Niagara real estate market is a smart thing to do. McGarr Realty experts know that staying on top of market values and availability often leads to the purchase of a family’s dream home, in their preferred community and neighbourhood.

But in today’s market, you have to be quick about getting that offer in. That’s why it’s good to keep in touch with your real estate expert – so when a listing pops up in your chosen Niagara community, you can get in quickly to see if you and the home in question are a match.

While you are waiting for the perfect listing to appear, it’s fun – and educational – to peruse the market, in your own and other communities, dreaming about the day when your family puts the new key into the new lock of your new home.

The team at McGarr Realty suggests having some fun with your dream searches, checking out celebrity showcase homes as well as “ordinary” residences in cities and towns around the world.
