Hi, I'm Dave Holt and welcome to my Mississauga and Milton Ontario Real Estate web site. Both Mississauga and Milton are busy, growing cities located in the GTA area of Southern Ontario. Mississauga was created in 1974 and is now the 6th largest city in Canada with a population of 729,000 residents representing cultures from all around the world!
Mississauga is home to Canada's largest and busiest airport- Pearson International (YYZ) servicing 32 million passengers on their way thru to various cities throughout the world!
Mississauga has been recognized as the safest city in Canada 8 years in a row and boasts wide open spaces, family oriented sports, arts and leisure facilities and of course Her Worship- our Mayor- Hazel McCallion!
Milton is located just west of Mississauga and situated at the base of the scenic Niagara Escarpment, Milton is one of four communities that comprise the Region of Halton. With a population of 80,000 Milton is billed as the fastest growing community in Canada. Also known as "Escarpment country", Milton offers easy access to all major highways and is within an hours drive of Toronto and a short drive to Oakville, Burlington and Hamilton.
The housing boom in Milton has been extraordinary and has been anchored by the development of Hawthorne Village which has been the best selling community in the GTA for the past 5 years. Area features include a wealth of parks, trails, outdoor year-round sports activities, history, culture and farm-fresh outdoor fun.

If you are buying a home, then, before you decide on whether this home is your dream home, the following checklist will help you look at prospective homes with a critical eye. We suggest printing this page and putting it on a clipboard. When you find a home that really interests you, mark the features you see and note their general condition on this list.
When should I sell my home? Your answer to this question might be right now! If you have taken a job in another city or made an offer on a new home, or had an addition to your family, selling your home fast might be the most important goal you have. Most people, however, have some flexibility when they sell their home. Let us take a closer look at the most important factors that can go into this decision.
HOW REAL ESTATE MARKET CONDITIONS AFFECT YOUR OFFER PRICE
STAGING… FOR A FASTER SALE AND HIGHER PRICE
A hot market is a "seller’s market". During a seller’s market, properties can sell within a few days of being listed and there are often multiple offers. Sometimes homes even sell above the asking price. Though most buyers want to get a "deal" on a home, reducing your offer by even a few thousand dollars could mean that someone else will get the home you desire.
There are many television shows today that focus on home staging. If you have not watched any, do yourself a favor and tune in. They all say the same thing: do not even consider putting your house on the market until you have taken a close look at its condition. Experienced sales people know that you only have one shot at impressing potential buyers, so take some time to prepare your home for showings. You will be rewarded with a faster sale and a higher offer.
