Navigating with a REALTOR

Buying a home is a very complex process. In addition to considering commercial, financial and legal aspects, it also requires solid negotiation skills. Why not hand this task over to a professional? A real estate broker who is a member of a real estate board can successfully navigate you through the entire process.

Negotiate purchase price and contract terms, such as date of possession, required repairs, included furnishings or equipment.
Direct you through complex contracts.
Find the right home, in the neighbourhood you want, at a price you can afford.
Compare your property with similar properties that have sold over the past year.

REALTORS are experienced in everything you need to know and do when buying a home.

Assess mortgage products and different types of lenders to see what fits your needs.
Find out if you are eligible for government homeownership incentive programs.
Find qualified industry professionals, such as real estate lawyers, home appraisers and home inspectors.
Get a feel for the neighbourhood including schools, parks and other amenities.
