Buyer Agency
Real estate is a big deal. For most , a home is the most expensive purchase they’ll make in their lifetime. It’s a serious transaction with significant financial and emotional decisions for the parties involved, and having proper representation is crucial to your success!
As your Buyer's Agent, I will be working with your best interests in mind! I will be negotiating the best price and ensuring you have the representation you need.
You want the facts, and I want to give them to you:
COMPLEX SITUATIONS: When it’s time to buy, knowing all the pros and cons of a property can help you make the right decision. Realtors® know real estate, and I can share information about a home that you may otherwise not know.
CONTRACTS AND NEGOTIATIONS: I can assist you in the negotiation process and help you navigate complex documents and craft an attractive offer that makes sense for you. I will offer advise to which investigations and inspections are recommended or required for your situation. Choosing representation is the best way to be an informed buyer.
FINANCIAL MATTERS: As your agent I can refer you to lenders best qualified to help you. Most lenders — banks and mortgage companies — offer limited choices. Getting pre-approved for a mortgage helps you understand how much you can borrow before going through the mortgage application process. This is an important step as it will influence your decision on the upper price limit of your house purchase, and will provide some realistic boundaries before diving head first into the process.
MULTIPLE LISTING SERVICE: One of the most important tools as a buyer you have when it comes time to make an offer are comparables generated from the Multiple Listings Service (MLS). As an Agent at Century 21 Heritage House Ltd. I have access to these reports and can search the recent sales activity of comparable properties in the same neighbourhood. You can see important information such as original and adjusted asking prices, number of days properties were on the market, listing agent history and actual selling prices. Sometimes the property you are seeking is available but not actively advertised on the market
