FAQ

  • The first step is to find a realtor who is in your corner. The right person will help you create a picture of the home you want, and decide on the priorities. They will also show you the entire process.

  • A mortgage broker can help you determine this down to the penny. While it largely depends on your income, assets, and credit, a good rule of thumb is that a bank will lend you 4x your combined income (you and a spouse) and you add a downpayment on top of that to find your maximum number. Not that you need to buy at your max 🙂

  • The Toronto market is always active and competitive. At the same time, a proactive agent will help you find the best opportunities, and if it’s the right time for you. Typically, you want to move based on your own life circumstances, as opposed to trying to time the market.

  • From searching for a home with a pre-approval, until closing, most buyers take 30-90 days. 

  • Buyers should ensure the home checks all the boxes from their “Needs List” and not compromise on those. It is easy for people to overlook important attributes if the house has something beautiful. That is a recipe for “Buyer’s Remorse”. 

    Financially, the condition of the roof, windows, foundation, electrical systems, plumbing, and overall layout are important.
