Define an overall budget

Confirm financing with your lender and estimate taxes, insurance, maintenance, transaction costs and moving.

A calculator can give you a ballpark figure, but it does not replace a pre-approval or a financing offer.

Compare the location and the property

Test the trips to the services and destinations in your week from each address.

Compare lot features, maintenance and known work between the properties you visit.

Read the documents before deciding

Ask for the available information on renovations, inclusions and the property’s components.

Have the appropriate checks done and get advice before signing a promise to purchase.
