January 2014: Tips, eNews & More!
Happy New Year!
We hope your holidays were full of good cheer!
Now that you're back in the swing of things, are you keeping to your New Year's resolutions?
If you need some help, remember to keep it simple, measurable and specific. The New Year is a great time to make positive changes, but remember, there is no
bad time for positive change! If you slip a little and fall back on a resolution, don't worry, just pick up from where you are and start again. You have the
whole year ahead of you. If your resolution was worth considering in December, there is no reason to wait until next year.
As we mentioned in December, your health benefits may be based on a calendar year, and if you have any outstanding dental work to be completed, or if you are
maintaining an oral health and hygiene routine that corresponds with your benefits, now is the time to come in and see us. You can request an appointment here.
All the best from,
Dr. Nick Babatsikos and Team

A Great Health Tip for the New Year!
Have you made your new years resolutions?
Let us add one that is easy to accomplish and will offer you health and wellness benefits that are far beyond the difficulty of keeping the resolution. Are you ready for it?
Drink more water in 2014!
Your body contains between 50-80% water and needs (6-8 glasses) of water per day to function properly. While most of our daily water intake comes from foods and sources other than simply drinking a glass of water, use this resolution to simplify your water intake. Proper hydration aids in weight control, toxin release, reduces the occurrence or severity of headaches, muscle aches and much more.
To help you remember to drink more water try attaching it to tasks you already do every day.

Sales and Average Price Up in Calendar Year 2013
Greater Toronto Area REALTORS® reported 4,078 residential transactions through the TorontoMLS system in December 2013 up by almost 14 per cent compared to 3,582 sales reported in December 2012. Total sales for calendar year 2013, at 87,111, were up by approximately two per cent compared to 85,496 transactions in calendar year 2012.
'The average selling price will be up again in 2014 and by more than the rate of inflation. The seller's market conditions that drove price growth in the second half of 2013 will remain in place in many parts of the GTA. Some neighbourhoods, especially those characterized by low-rise home types like singles, semis and townhomes, will continue to have less than two months of inventory," said Jason Mercer, TREB's Senior Manager of Market Analysis.
The average selling price for December 2013 sales was $520,398 – up by 8.9 per cent compared to the average of $477,756 in December 2012.
The average selling price for 2013 as a whole was $523,036, which represented an increase of 5.2 per cent compared to the calendar year 2012 average of $497,130.
