FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • What’s the development potential of my property?
    If your property is located in Brookswood or its surrounding areas, it may hold significant development potential. We can guide you in making informed decisions about selling by leveraging our expertise, research, and strong connections with city officials. Our team ensures you get accurate pricing and strategic advice to maximize the value of your property.
  • Will I be part of a land assembly with my neighbors?
    Land assemblies occur when multiple adjacent properties are grouped and sold as one transaction. In Brookswood, where development interest is growing, land assemblies have become increasingly popular. However, every seller’s needs are unique. Our team can help you determine if selling your property as part of an assembly is the best option or if you should proceed independently.
  • How do creeks and easements affect my property?
    In Brookswood, natural features like creeks and easements can significantly influence property value. While they may enhance aesthetics, developers often place less value on properties with restricted land use. Understanding these factors is crucial to accurately pricing and marketing your property.
  • Do development properties have showings or open houses?
    Development properties in Brookswood often don’t require traditional showings or open houses. Developers and investors typically focus on the land’s potential rather than the home’s livability. Aerial photos, zoning documents, and proposed layouts are usually sufficient for decision-making. However, in some cases, buyers may still wish to visit the site upon acceptance of an offer.
  • Do I really need a Realtor when selling?
    Yes, having a Realtor ensures your best interests are protected. From pricing strategy to navigating complex negotiations, a knowledgeable Realtor provides the expertise and support needed for a smooth transaction. Learn more about how we can help by visiting Mike Jamieson’s Realtor website.

  • How much do I have to pay in Capital Gains?
    Capital gains taxes apply when a property is sold for a price higher than its original purchase cost. If the property is your principal residence, you may qualify for an exemption. We recommend consulting a tax professional or accountant to understand your specific obligations.

    The Multiple Listing Service (MLS) is a platform Realtors use to market properties to a wide audience. In Brookswood, the MLS ensures your property reaches potential buyers effectively and efficiently.

  • What type of terms can I expect in the Purchase Agreement?
    In Brookswood, sale agreements for development land often include flexible terms. These may involve non-refundable deposits, extended completion dates, or rent-free periods post-closing. We work to ensure the terms meet your specific needs and provide certainty in the transaction.
