TIPSW E E K L Y
FREE
Buying a home? These seven tips can make your house-hunting experience positive & rewarding.
1. Location counts - you’ve probably heard the
old real estate joke about “location, location,
location”, but the point still bears repeating.
Location is critical. How far are you really
willing to drive to your place of employment?
How good are the local schools and public
transportation? Even a picture-perfect dream
home can be a mistake if it’s in an undesirable
location, and a poor-location home can be
a particularly bad choice if you anticipate
reselling the home in a few years.
2. Make a list - Do you (and your spouse, if
you’re married) really know what you need
and want in your home? You’ll save many
hours of shopping (and potential arguing) if
you make a list ahead of time. Zero in on the
features you must have, would like to have,
defi nitely don’t want and would prefer not to
have. Your goal is to fi nd the right home for
your family without falling in love with one
that doesn’t suit your needs. Start compiling
your wish list by thinking about what you
like & dislike about your current home.
3. Do your homework - not too long ago,
consumers had very little access to information
about recent home sale prices, market trends,
homes on the market, neighbourhood statistics
and the home-buying process. Today, all this
information and more is available. Go surfi ng
on the web or ask a realtor to provide you
with this information. Get educated. Become
empowered.
4. Get pre-approved for a mortgage - Your
top-dollar home price is a function of your
household income, your credit worthiness,
interest rates, the type of loan you select
and how much cash you have or are willing
to offer for the down payment. Rather than
guessing or estimating how much you are
going to be able to afford to spend, ask a
lender or a mortgage broker to give you a full
assessment and ask for a letter stating how
much you’re qualifi ed to borrow. The true
amount may be much more or less than you
think.
5. Use a checklist - touring multiple homes can
be a confusing experience for most people.
Rather than relying on memory, make
notes about the homes you visit. Create a
personalized home-shopping checklist and
use it to track the features of each home that
you’re interested in.
6. Be prepared to make an offer - house
hunting can be frustrating, especially if you
know you’re not ready to buy a home. If
you’re not ready, don’t put yourself through
the exercise. If you are ready, ask your realtor
to go over a blank purchase agreement ahead
of time so you’ll know what decisions you’ll
face when you make the offer.
7. Relax - granted, buying a home is a major
life-altering event. But it’s not worth making
yourself crazy or super over-stressed about.
Save time at the end of your house-hunting
expedition to unwind, calm your thoughts
and emotions and keep the whole experience
in perspective.

A HOME INSPECTION IS A GOOD INVESTMENT
Buying a home is a major event in most people’s lives. Often, homebuyers are so caught up in the excitement that they can easily overlook any fl aws their new home may have. However, a house is also one of the most expensive purchases you are likely to make so it’s best to know as much as possible about potential problems before you make the commitment to buy.
In its free booklet, “How to buy your home,” the Ontario Real Estate Association recommends homebuyers hire a professional home inspector to thoroughly check out a property before buying. A home inspection can give you the peace of mind of knowing what to expect and help you make an informed decision about the value of the home and the future upkeep.
Not only will a home inspection help you determine the condition of the house, its structural soundness, and its mechanical systems, but it also brings any problems to the seller’s attention at a time when they can be resolved before closing a sale.
If you are making an offer on a house before it’s inspected, talk to your REALTOR® about including a clause that the sale is contingent upon a satisfactory structural inspection, and specify when the inspection is to be carried out. That way, you are protected.
