Tracy Carson, Broker/Owner of MaxWell South Star, is known to so many as the first female Broker/Owner at MaxWell Realty. She has been in the real estate business for 20 years and we wanted to share her real estate journey with the rest of the MaxWell family.

 Here is Tracy’s story:

I have been in Real Estate for 20 years; I’m as old as MaxWell. In the three years before becoming licensed, I worked in sales for new home builders. That is where I met my husband, James. He came in to buy a house from me. In the early days, RECA’s required licensing education could be anything that fits into the category of Real Estate related education. I didn’t want to waste my time, so I did retraining courses that would benefit me in the industry. Those…

MaxWell Realty has recently had the pleasure of interviewing our newest Broker/Owner Darrell Borbely. Darrell opened the doors of MaxWell Performance in August of 2019!

Check out our interview with Darrell Borbely below:

 

1. How many years in the industry as an agent?

 I got licensed in 2003, so approximately 16 years.

2. What led you to want to make the change to being an owner/broker?

 I've been watching the industry for the last couple years; everyone seemed to be doing the same thing, all new realtors, in my opinion, were not learning the basics they required to be a successful realtor. So if you want to change, you have to be prepared to do your part & try changing it.

I used to get calls from realtors from other companies…

Making efforts to reduce your energy use at home will reduce your impact on the environment, and with less energy consumed, it will also reduce your monthly energy bills. Here are some ideas for electrical projects that will decrease the amount of electricity you use at home:

Switch to energy efficient light bulbs.

If you’re still using traditional incandescent light bulbs, you’re wasting about 90% of the energy they produce in lost heat, not light. LED bulbs use only 20 to 25% of the energy incandescent bulbs use and they can last up to 25 times longer! LEDs are more expensive, but they have come down in price compared to what they used to be, and you will see a return on investment in energy savings in the long-term.

If you just moved into your forever home and it needs a roof replacement, contact Edmonton metal roofing companies . Metal roofing offers aesthetics, efficiency, safety and longevity. Here are some reasons to buy a metal roof:

It will last for as long as you own the home.

A metal roof Edmonton is a great choice if you don’t plan on leaving your home anytime soon. It can last 50 years or more without needing to be repaired or replaced.

If you’re looking for a roofing product that truly passes the test time, a metal roof is the one for you.

Metal roofing is created to protect your home.

Before embarking on any kind of home renovations, it pays to know what will add the most value to your home. Here are some key home improvements that will add value to your house by improving its re-sale value:

1. Home Additions and Extensions

An addition adds more space and that brings the biggest re-sale return and adding a second story, or extending a bungalow is worth the investment. Bedrooms, living room and kitchen are the best candidates as they are the most commonly used.

Tip #1: Seriously consider whether or not you are over-renovating. Many homeowners think that the only way to increase the value of the home is to spend money on expensive remodels. Sometimes the simplest or least expensive update can give you the best return.
