Buying your First Home Buying a home is a big decision even if you had done it before. But if it's your first home, it's even more important that understand the process and are never be afraid to ask questions - I still remember my first purchase. I was so nervous! I asked my agent to tell me everything I needed to know but didn't know what to ask. I trusted him and I was wrong. I had so many suprises (financially and otherwise) that I questioned my entire decision. Fortunately for my first time buyers - I NEVER FORGOT THAT EXPERIENCE! I don't expect you to know about Land Transfer Tax, or how the offer process works, or what a home inspection entails - I consider it my responsibility to you to ensure you have all the information you need - before the offer and long before it becomes an unwelcome surprise. Check out the information I've provided especially some of the links - it's all valuable information and there's no such thing as too much knowledge - trust me! If you like, call me and come into my office for a coffee and a chat. I will walk you through what's involved and go over the various options you have for neighbourhoods etc. The best part is the knowledge and the coffee are on me! Most buyers don't know that the services of a professional real estate agent don't cost a cent! We are paid on the otherside of the transaction - by the seller. So there's no reason not to work with someone who genuinely want's to make this first step a happy and memorable time! Call me for coffee at (905) 845-4267 or email me at debracurran@royallepage.ca |
