If you have been looking for a new home in Chestermere, or looking to sell your existing home, you may spend a fair bit of time on the website http://www.mls.ca/.  You may have noticed recent changes to postings to include a specific address.  This combined with the recent development of the online tool Google maps; you can do a lot of research online.  If you visit Google maps , you can enter an address of a property you are interested in, and you can see a variety of maps.  Of course you see the regular map of streets, but you can also select a street view, which will show you an image of the street.  This is great when you want to get a “feel” for a certain neighbourhood beforehand. Check out this online video to get an idea how to use this tool.

You can also select the terrain option and see the hills and valleys of the local area.  This is another aspect of you’re the community which can affect your decision.  Other great options include a view of traffic, webcams in the area, and transit locations.  The tool also includes photos that were taken from the local area.  These are all factors which could play into your final decision to purchase a home in Chestemere  or elsewhere.  If you are selling your home in Chestermere, it might be valuable for you to search your own home and see what prospective buyers might see. 

Of course, there is no replacement for seeing in person a real home and neighbourhood, so once you have done your research, call me and you can experience a prospective location in person.
