Happy Earth Day!
These last two years we have heard the phrase ‘we are all in this together’ many times and I would like to add that it also applies to taking care of our planet!
After all, this is our world, this is where we live. And a beautiful world it is!! You may wonder how Real Estate and Earth conservation are connected.
They certainly can be! How? Let me share some interesting tips with you!
Give your old items a second chance!
Moving always requires packing up and sorting through all your belongings.
Oftentimes, furniture is left at the curb for our garbage collectors to pick up.
This means stuff will end up as landfill, while a lot of things we consider no longer useful, could serve a purpose for someone else!
When you are moving, or buying new furniture, lamps, curtains, etc, consider contacting the Niagara Furniture Bank.
They help those who are (temporarily) experiencing hardship. Your furniture and household items may be helping them out!
Recycling is always better than landfill. Visit their WEBSITE for more information!
Sustainability in your home and garden!
There is also a lot you can do in your home to save the environment.

Did You Sell Your Home in 2021? Please Read This!
If you have sold a house in 2021 the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) has some information for you! The global pandemic has also resulted in changes to CRA services. I hope that this information is helpful.
Now is a good time to report the sale of your principal residence. Before 2016, if you sold your property, and it was your principal residence for every year you owned it, you did not have to report the sale to claim the principal residence exemption. Now you do!
The CRA advises you to amend your tax return as soon as possible for any year in which you forgot to report. They are getting tougher with people when it comes to reporting the routine sale of their home, even when there is zero tax owing. You can click on the flag or HERE to be linked to the CRA Real Estate Site.
COVID-19 has impacted our lives in so many ways and still is. There have also been many changes made to how the Canadian Revenue Agency is handling tax filing and benefits. Updates on changes to the Canada Revenue Agency services, due dates and programs affected by the pandemic are available on their website and by contacting your accountant.
Stay Safe!
