Buying a home is likely one of the largest purchases you’ll ever make. It requires careful planning and saving. 

You’ll need to save up a down payment of at least 5% and you’ll need to meet with a mortgage broker to get pre-qualified and understand your budget. 

You’ll need to have a good idea of what type of property you want to purchase. Where do you want to live? How long will you live there? Will your family grow?

Find a great Real Estate professional who understands your goals. Together, you’ll explore listings and find properties that suit both your goals and your budget. 

When you find a property you’d like to purchase, you’ll work together to write an offer and include your ideal terms and conditions. The agent will negotiate on your behalf. 

Once an Accepted Offer is achieved, your due diligence period will begin. Your agent will help you navigate this process and work towards satisfying all of your conditions.
