Homeward Bound Newsletter – April 2022

Welcome to the month of April.  By the time you are reading this, you will be deep into it.  That means I can’t play any April Fool jokes on you.  Never been a fan of those anyway.   When I was a kid, my favourite radio station 99.9 CKFM Virgin Radio in Toronto announced they were going to be changing formats and playing elevator music, and for half the day they did that, only to announce it was a big April Fool’s Joke.

Another BIG deal in April is TAX day! Yep! Deadlines for filing those personal income tax returns.  I don’t think most people mind paying taxes as long as they are being put to good use.  I think it’s the waste that bothers most of Canadian citizens.

Both days I mentioned above are for sure conversation starters, one full of funny stories, the other maybe not so much, but there are a few days more memorable than the day you buy your dream home.  That day is supposed to be a fun, exciting, and great feeling of accomplishment.

Therefore, we offer guarantees and assurances to our clients. We call this Our Risk Removal System.  Like our Guaranteed Sale Program: Your Home Sold at a Price Agreeable to You or We’ll Buy It*. And our VIP Buyer Satisfaction Guarantee:  If You Are Not Happy With Your Home, We Will Buy It Back!*  In fact, our Exclusive Seller Agreements Offer 10 Unprecedented Guarantees.  In my experience, these guarantees elevate our service and our client’s experience. 

And by now, four paragraphs into this month’s Homeward Bound, you are wondering how the headline ties into any of this.  If you are reading Homeward Bound for the first time, you will notice we give back to those in our community who need help the most. Like our neighbours at SickKid’s Hospital of Toronto!

Just down the street from where I’m typing, SickKid’s Hospital of Toronto has a full house of kids with many fighting for their lives. And that is no April Fools joking matter. It’s also likely taxes are the furthest thing from the minds of the parents with kids at SickKids.

As you know SickKid’s Hospital of Toronto does awesome work in helping kids fight through and survive nasty life-threatening diseases like cancer, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, leukemia and others. They also
lead the way in early diagnosis of Autism and recovery from spinal cord injuries.

Most don’t know though that SickKids is a non-profit. They depend on sponsorships and donations to provide their world class care and keep costs for the families of these beautiful kids to a minimum.

SickKid’s Hospital of Toronto is Making a Difference Today and for Tomorrow!

The reason for the headline is because 30 seconds is about all it takes to think about who you know that may be considering buying or selling the place they call home and to give us a call.  If it is you, then awesome! If it’s a friend or family member, that’s great too!

Why Support SickKid’s Hospital of Toronto:
I grew up right here in Toronto. Born right downtown at St. Michael’s Hospital. I remember when I first heard about a young person close to our family suffering from a nasty disease and getting treated for that at Sick Kids Hospital of Toronto. It was then that I began to pay closer attention to the work they do at that hospital. Since then, I have learned that it is a collection of hard-working health care professionals, most making their home right here in the Toronto area, all coming together for a common cause. That cause is to help young people overcome unfortunate health issues that life sometimes throws our way.

Being in the Toronto area, an Ontario native, I take pride in supporting in a way that I can the good work these people do at Sick Kids Hospital of Toronto. My team rally’s around our annual goal of raising money and donating portions of our income to help Sick Kids Hospital of Toronto in their quest to heal young people when they need healing. My team and I are committed to providing outstanding results for buyers and sellers referred to us by our past clients. I have discovered that Sick Kids Hospital of Toronto shares similar commitments to their patients. And since their services survive on sponsorships and donations we are happy to contribute and proud to support them.

I encourage you to visit their website at www.sickkids.ca and check out how they are making a difference in the lives of children and their families!
