Services · Buying
Buying with us
A good purchase starts with knowing what you want and what you can comfortably spend. We help you get clear on both, give you an honest read on each place you see and negotiate terms that protect you. That holds for a first condo and for a farm.
Who we work with
First-time buyers, growing families, people moving up or downsizing, and buyers looking at luxury homes or rural property. We also help people moving to or from the region, and buyers elsewhere in Ontario.
How buying works
-
First conversation
We talk about what you need, where you'd like to live and your timing, and answer your questions about costs and the process.
-
Preparation
Most buyers arrange a mortgage pre-approval before looking seriously. We'll explain deposits, land transfer tax and closing costs so nothing catches you off guard.
-
Viewing homes
We'll view properties with you and tell you honestly what we think of each one, including the details that are easy to miss.
-
Offer and negotiation
We'll explain the terms and conditions, advise you on price and negotiate on your behalf. You decide if and when to go ahead.
-
Conditions and closing
We coordinate financing, inspection and other conditions, keep track of the dates and work with your lawyer through to closing.
Working with us
Whoever you speak with first stays with you from the first showing to closing day, so you always know who to call.
Next step
A private conversation
The simplest next step is a short conversation, at your home, at our Cambridge office or by phone. Tell us what you're considering and we'll tell you honestly what we'd do. There's no obligation.
