Comment on Eco Action Program by jamesM

Save Energy First! Extend ecoENERGY!
Federal Conservatives axe popular energy-saving program???
An early end to ecoENERGY grants program closed two months ahead of schedule, with an estimated less than 1/2 of the $400 Million set aside in Budget 2011 used. We need to Save Energy First!

Energy efficiency should be the first item on Canada’s energy agenda. Canada is about to spend billions on new oil sands projects, pipelines, nuclear and fossil-fuel power stations, hydroelectric dams, solar projects, and wind farms. But as we prepare to generate more energy, it makes sense to save energy first.

We need to get serious about energy efficiency. The global economy is struggling and governments want to create jobs. This is a huge opportunity for Canadian governments to help Canadian families save energy. Making our homes more energy-efficient creates jobs in all communities. http://www.SaveEnergyFirst.ca

The Save ecoENERGY Coalition (at http://saveecoenergy.ca/about-us) urges Canadians to send a clear message to decision makers that it’s time for Canada to save energy first before spending billions on more energy.

Canadians can send this message using the Save ecoENERGY Coalition form at: http://saveecoenergy.ca/save-energy-first

Comment on Buying a New Condominium from a Builder and the New Home Warranty Plan by Steven Silva

Steven Silva — Thu, 21 Oct 2010 04:09:16 +0000

The Pre-Delivery Inspection, known as PDI, is the first and best opportunity that new home purchasers have to assert their home warranty claims. Items not discovered during the PDI may not be covered under the warranty and could cost the purchasers thousands of dollars. The builder may also dispute whether or not the items in question are covered.

Visit me, Steven Silva, on Wednesday, November 3rd from 7pm to 8pm @ 107 Holland Street (Royal LePage Your Community Realty Board Room) for a free Seminar on Preparing for a New Home Warranty Pre-Delivery Inspection. Registration is not required but seating is limited. Register to ensure seating by calling 905-775-7965 or email me at steven.silva@rogers.com

Comment on Tarion Protection Is Worthless Without Knowing How To Use It by Steven Silva

Your frustration comes across very clearly. In my other blog, intro to Tarion, I start to discuss how the New Home Warranty is there to protect the builder by providing a standard that they can fall onto. Tarion is run mostly by builders. It is also wonderful how people love to point out that One Should Have Had A Home Inspection as if that was the ultimate protection. Yes, I am a strong supporter of home inspections but (as a person who has done quite a few) I can tell you that there are many limitations. Many defects are hidden and appear after the fact. Unfortunately, you are not alone in your frustration.

Sorry, I don’t believe for a second that you need to know how to deal with Tarion. We have met every deadline with Tarion been in a court battle and they are so unprofessional it’s sickening. They have never met a deadline and always turn the story al around to make us the homeowner responsible. We bought a brand new house and got screwed, Tarion said we should have had a home inspection done before we purchased. We have had over ten floods in less than ten years, have three industrial sump pumps and there is nothing wrong with our house. Oh we need to get a battery back up in case the power goes out, that would last us 21 minutes, another joke. I could go on for hours.

Comment on How to end a Tenancy Agreement by Realtor Steve

Realtor Steve — Sat, 14 Aug 2010 18:44:56 +0000

The N11 form is a absolute must. Several forms can be used to evict a tenant but the N11 is the only form where the tenant already agreed to leave willingly (even if the change their mind later). Note: All leases (rental contracts) renew them selves forever. Landlords can have a expensive and hard time evicting a tenant,
