Hidden Defects

Hidden Defects Let me say first that normal wear and tear is not considered a latent defect. Regardless though, if you receive a complaint from the buyer about discovered issues after the purchase you must reply in kind and acknowledge receipt of their complaint. Ask the Buyer to provide a written letter with the facts. You need to know about the evidence being used against you. This is a requirement as per the Civil Code of Quebec, Section 1739. It may also be in your interest to ask the buyer permission to visit the property with your expert to further assess the...

Who Speaks For The Earth - Climate Change

04 Jul

How Hot Will It Get?

How Hot Will It Get? Truth be told, I had never heard of climate change before seeing Al Gores' "An Inconvenient Truth". At the time the movie came out, I had a young family. I was busy working, raising my kids, and more focused on things within my own personal sphere. I wasn't paying attention to what was going on with the planet. "An Inconvenient Truth" brought the issue to my awareness and I've been paying attention ever since. The film came out in 2006...

Bonnie helped us find our first home! She was a pleasure to work with - always responsive and punctual with a fun personality to boot. It took almost six months to find what we were looking, and Bonnie guided us the whole way. We appreciated her knowledge and experience, especially when it came to holding out for what we really wanted. There was a property we were sold on, but it had some major drawbacks. Bonnie was able to give us the confidence to hold out for something better, and we are so glad we did because the home we eventually found had everything we wanted. Thank you, Bonnie, for all your help!read more

We’re residents of California and recently had the pleasure of working with Bonnie to purchase a vacation condo in Old Town Montreal. Bonnie was recommended to us by another American and what a great recommendation! Bonnie and I talked by phone a few times to get to know each other and so she could learn what we wanted and our tastes, and we emailed listings back and forth before our trip to Montreal. Bonnie planned a full afternoon of condo visits in different areas of Montreal and chauffeured us around to each one--her parallel parking skills are unmatched! : ) Back in California, we decided to make an offer and Bonnie answered all our questions via email and phone, and guided us through making an online offer across a continent. Sadly, the owner opted to pull their condo off the market. Bonnie rallied us and we continued to look at listings. Several times she previewed condos for us, sending photos or video. After a second trip to Montreal to visit (and revisit) condos with Bonnie, we made another offer, which was accepted. Next Bonnie helped arrange or provided info for an inspection, Canadian home insurance and banks, and the electric and phone/internet companies. She put us in touch with the condo association and procured documents for us. When my husband flew to Montreal for the signing, she drove him home from the notary, and later took him around Montreal to get key copies and try to find an open bank (holiday weekend). Bonnie went above and beyond for us time and time again, with a great sense of humor and a lot of patience. We can’t wait to get back to Montreal to use our new condo, and look forward to seeing her again. We highly recommend Bonnie for anyone who seeks to purchase property in Montreal and wants a smooth and enjoyable journey to success!read more

I had a great experience with Bonnie Meisels. I had recently moved to Montréal and I was looking for an apartment to rent so I decided to use the services of a Real Estate agent. She was the first one I called and I was really pleased with her professionalism and her prompt response to my request. Within a few hours she sent me a bunch of listings to look at and she followed up on them. She provided a great service and I highly recommend her to anybody who is looking for a Real Estate agent.read more

Bonnie was extremely professional and helped me immensely in finding the right place for me. Always on time and always honest. She didn't try to put me in a place that wouldn't be right. We visited many places until we found the perfect spot. I would definitely call her again next time I'm shopping around for a place to live.read more

I had a great experience working with Bonnie. I was coming from outside of Montreal, and Bonnie spent a generous amount of time explaining the intricacies and subtleties of the Montreal market. She is very experienced, and knows the city of Montreal very well. Her recommendation of inspector was top notch. Bonnie is the consummate professional, detail oriented, and was very thorough in arranging my purchase. I recommend her highly, and would happily work with her again.read more

Bonnie’s strength is her caring follow-through. She is quick to respond, and when difficulties arise, she is an active and effective advocate. As foreign buyers our situation was especially complicated, but Bonnie patiently explained things and guided us through, during the sale and beyond. It really helped to have someone on our side.read more

Bonnie was extremely helpful throughout the entire process, and was very knowledgeable about the market in Montreal. Phone calls were prompt and informative, and our visit to Montreal to view listings could not have been easier. My father and I would strongly recommend her to anyone -- student, business, or otherwise -- looking for real estate in Montreal!read more

I cannot believe that anyone else would have been so dedicated and devoted to me during what was a very trying period in my life, as it is for most people selling their home. Bonnie supported me mentally and physically through the entire process. She worked tirelessly staging and updating the house staging at every turn. She is a true professional and a great person. She did what no other agent would have done... She did everything!!!!read more
