So this isn't a trick! 🤔 While you likely feel

So this isn't a trick! 🤔 While you likely feel very familiar with the term MLS®, here's a little more info on what the term really means.⁣
⁣
MLS®⁣
You probably know MLS® stands for Multiple Listing Service®, but do you know what that means? MLS® does not refer to a database or tool. The MLS® mark identifies professional services provided by a REALTOR® as part of a co-operative selling system. Learn more about CREA’s trademarks on REALTOR Link®.⁣

Do you like writing property descriptions?✍🏽⁣
⁣
On top of the many tasks involved with putting home on the market, it can sometimes feel like a challenge to add this to the list. But it's often a buyer's first impression of the property, so it's important to get it right. ✔⁣
⁣
When you're writing the description, focus on the facts. Highlight the selling points: new appliances, perennial gardens, great neighbourhood. But be careful not to exaggerate. This will only lead to frustration or disappointment.⁣

🏡 Fall in the Lakelands regions is a spectacula

🏡 Fall in the Lakelands regions is a spectacular season. Buyers are looking to invest in properties that offer more outdoor space than those in GTA and other urban areas. Embrace the beauty of our regions when you're staging to sell.⁣
⁣
REALTORS® and sellers should work together to stage and show the exterior of the homes they are selling in their best possible light. ⁣
⁣
Many homeowners are now adding pumpkins to their outdoor decor. While it's fun to embrace the 🎃 spooktacular decorations of October, when you're staging to sell, it's best to leave the bold decorations in storage to let the beauty of the home really shine!

Opportunities for improvement are all around us.📚
Some are obvious, like learning how to use new tools to make work better.🖥

Others are more subtle, like breaking old habits and seeing new perspectives. Let's all forge ahead looking for chances to be our best selves! 👀

🍁 Lakelands regions are home to stunning forests and natural landscapes.🌲⁣
We're just transitioning into what many of us consider to be the most stunning time of the year when we can take in the golden and red hues of autumn.⁣

In Orillia, 🐟 Bass Lake Provincial Park is a lovely place to spend a fabulous fall day.🍂⁣

We'd love to hear from YOU! Where's your favourite Orillia location to look at the leaves?

In our current climate, a smart phone is all you need to share a listing to a prospective buyer, no matter where they live. Are you live-streaming your listings?⁣
⁣
A live stream broadcast (or stream) an event live over the internet. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, REALTOR.ca added the ability to advertise live streaming open houses directly on listings.⁣

🏡 The uptick in demand for properties with gorg

🏡 The uptick in demand for properties with gorgeous green space continues. Many buyers are looking to invest in the Lakelands Association of REALTORS® regions, drawn to properties that typically offer more outdoor space than those in GTA and other urban areas.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
With that in mind, REALTORS® and sellers should work together to stage and show the exterior of the homes they are selling in their best possible light.🌲⁣⁣

🍂 Today is the first official day of fall and now we can fully transition into the new season when we're staging. Patios, decks and porches are just as lovely during the cooler weather. Lean into the cozy factor by adding texture to chairs and benches. Strategically placed, stylish blankets and pillows will help to create a welcoming first impression.*⁣⁣
