A Big Thanks to those that made contributions to the Annual Realtor's Care Blanket Drive!
It was a wonderful success with more than 4200 bags of clothing and and blankets collected in the Greater Vancouver, Fraser Valley, and Chilliwack areas. Maple Ridge/Pitt Meadows area collected over 170 bags, that was distributed to the local Friends in Need Food Bank , Ironhorse Youth Safehouse, the Outreach program, Hanna House Women's Recovery Centre and the Salvation Army 'Caring Place'. It helped many individuals and families!

Have you ever thought about buying a second home in a foreign country? Most of us have spent a few minutes online drooling over some of these properties. However, most of us quickly let the dream fade away when we realize how complicated and risky this venture can be.
The hardest part about buying property abroad is that every country, state, and city has different rules and conventions. So to be smart about it we usually start by researching foreign ownership restrictions, tax ramifications, currency issues, etc. This can be very time consuming, costly, and may even lead to out dated and incorrect answers. Along with this, doubt usually sets in; what if the property is over priced and I’m the only idiot in the world who doesn’t know it?
The best way to purchase real estate in foreign places is to contact a trustworthy, local, real estate professional. A local real estate agent will be familiar with the market value of properties in the area you are searching, and they understand the local laws. Your next question is probably; how do I find a trustworthy local real estate agent?
There is a website called UniFersal.com. You can find properties in over 50 countries, look at pictures, and even chat, call, or message a pre-screened, local real estate professional who speaks your language and specializes in the particular city you are searching in.
UniFersal.com does a background check on all of the real estate professionals that would love to help you buy real estate in their city. They confirm the professional’s real estate expertise in that city, and even ask for references.
If you are serious about buying a property in a foreign country, don’t try to do it alone. Use the internet to drool over properties, then get serious and contact a local professional.
Nice way to say thanks to this people.

I admit, I have not been on this real estate blog in a long time… however it was another joy to see it is such an important topic and ignored by so many, even professionals. I thank you to help making people more aware of possible issues.
Great stuff as usual….
