In today’s competitive real estate market, sellers want their property to stand out. With the “Work Now, Pay Later” program, clients of Peterborough’s Team vanRahan can be assured they are getting the most value for their home.
Team vanRahan is Ben vanVeen and Catherine Hanrahan, Sales Representatives with Century 21 United Realty Inc. Brokerage. Long-time Peterborough resident vanVeen has been working with clients buying and selling real estate since 2010, while Hanrahan is a familiar face across Peterborough, having spent 16 years as a broadcaster in the city before she made the move to real estate in 2018. To round out the team, the duo are joined by Director of Operations Sara Lytle, a Peterborough native with strong ties to the community.
With offices in Peterborough and Campbellford, Team vanRahan supports clients buying and selling residential, commercial, and cottage property across the region, from as far as Belleville in the southeast to Bancroft in the north. Whether buying or selling, Team vanRahan believes in the power of knowledge, offering free valuations and seminars for first-time homebuyers. A certified senior specialist, Hanrahan also enjoys supporting seniors in their home transition.
Active members of the communities they serve, vanVeen sits on the Board of Directors and is a former Chair of the Peterborough and Kawarthas Chamber of Commerce, while Hanrahan was named last year’s co-Rotarian of the Year by the Rotary Club of Peterborough. With their extensive network of contacts, the team can welcome newcomers to Peterborough by not only securing them a new home, but by helping them connect to the social life of the community.
For those who are selling their home, Team vanRahan offers the innovative “Work Now, Pay Later” program, which provides a short-term interest-free loan for essential improvements such as repainting or landscaping that will get a property in more competitive shape to go on the market.
You can use your own contractors, or connect with one of the local businesses that Team vanRahan works alongside. In either case, Team vanRahan will pay contractors upfront for the work, and you pay them back when they sell your house (some conditions apply).
“It’s a win for the homeowner who can sell their home for more, it’s a win for the buyer because the work is done for them, and it’s a win for the local contractor who’s getting more work,” says vanVeen.
