About: Patricia Kiteke

Buying revenue property as part of your overall investment strategy is a great idea.  Holding valuable properties can help you build wealth over time.

All to often however we hear stories of landlords who have had bad experiences renting out their homes or condos.

Many times these bad experiences can be avoided if the landlords have the right resources available to them.  One such resource for BC landlords is ROMS BC short for  The Residential Owners and Managers Society of BC.

 

The mission of ROMS BC is to provide services, products and representation to help it’s members succeed as rental owners.  ROMS BC serves and represents over 2,300 members who collectively manage more than 50,000 residential rental units throughout British Columbia.   They have all sort of helpful things like rental application forms which facilitate credit checks on applicants, tenancy agreement forms and they can perform credit checks on your applicants.   The knowledgeable staff can also answer legal questions and offering operational advice.

 

Taking the time to properly vet those who apply for tenancy is a key element to having a good rental experience.  Make sure that your applicants’ references check out and perform a credit check.   With attention to these details and the right advise and resources at your command you too can benefit from owning rental property.

The World Partnership Walk is Canada’s largest annual event dedicated to raising funds and increasing awareness to fight global poverty.

The walk was held in Vancouver, Toronto and Victoria at Beacon Hill Park and raised $2 million dollars for the world’s poor.

We were touched to hear the guest of honour Naz Rayani address the crowd.  All of the energy he brought to organizing this among many walks in Victoria was inspiring.

 

Manning the mini golf station with the folks from Prospect Lake Golf Course was a blast!

 

We were thrilled to support such a fantastic event and be a part of this tremendous fundraising effort!

 

 

My partner Christina Carrick and I created an online down payment wedding registry because we wanted to provide a new and exciting service for couples.   Home for the Honeymoon expands the potential of both the real estate industry but also the wedding registry industry.  The service provided here helps couples avoid redundant wedding gifts that lose value when returned (or subsequently sold in garage sales).  As realtors and home owners we know the value of having a place where your new family can settle and thrive.  By registering for your new home you are making a financially sound decision from which you will benefit for years to come but you’re also registering to receive the best gift of all time!

Home for the Honeymoon works with a wide range of needs, from couples who use the registry to raise their entire down payment amount, to those who already have a portion saved and need a boost to reach their goal, and others who won’t be able to make their purchase for 6 months or longer after the wedding day.   Regardless of your situation our expertise will help you get into the home you want.

Friends and family of Home for the Honeymoon couples love being a part of this great experience as well.  We’ve even had couples receive gifts for up to a week after their wedding day.   Weddings really have the ability to unite loved ones in celebration and of course well wishers are happy about the opportunity to give the new couple all the tools necessary to start off on the right foot.
