BUILDING WITH NO HEAT
It’s not too often but it does happen that realtors get emergency calls. It could be from an elder who has to make an urgent transition, sell her/his home, refinance it, what-have-you. That’s why we formed Phoebe Services this year.
Being a realtor can mean you are in a helping profession. Corny but true.

But here’s another example–I got a call yesterday from a client who owns a fine building in Arnprior that has had an electrical fire and consequently has no heat. The problem? His insurance claim has not been settled and winter is here across much of North America.
What’s the quickest way to take down a building in Canada? Leave it with no heat or open to the elements for a winter, that’ll do it. So now I have a distress sale on my hands and it’s urgent.
If you know anyone who is a bit adventurous, likes real estate, doesn’t mind some work, and wants to diversify her/his investment portfolio with a small scale commercial/residential project with a great return, then this is for him or her or you. Please pass it along.
