Derek is an incredible realtor. I would recommend him without hesitation to colleagues, friends, and family. He helped us navigate the search and purchase of our first home in Toronto's crazy market.

I highly recommend working with Derek; he was a pleasure to deal with from beginning to end. Patient, empathetic, straightforward, proactive, and responsive, Derek was there at every step of the way as we bought our new home and listed our original home.

You can choose the right advisor to help with home buying by interviewing, seeking referrals, and researching prospective salespeople. Since you only work with one real estate agent, it should be someone you like, trust, and respect.
GET PRE-QUALIFIED
Pre-qualification is the lender’s estimate of your borrowing power, which is determined by your application, credit history, income, and debts.
GET A PRE-APPROVAL
Pre-approval formalizes the estimate and concludes with a letter or certificate of commitment from a lender that
confirms approval for a specified amount at specified terms.
TOTAL DOWN PAYMENT
You must invest this money in a down payment and closing costs. Your equity can be added to this total if you own a home. You can determine an estimation by talking with your lawyer or financial advisor.
Toronto’s housing stock is diverse and gives home buyers limitless options. Most neighbourhoods offer a variety of housing styles. Often, the housing style is determined by your budget.
CREATE A WISH LIST
Home purchases require compromise, so you must prioritize your needs and wants before beginning your search.
Share your wish list and your price range with your salesperson so they can find properties that fulfill your needs requirements. Keep your Sage real estate agent advised of any changes to your requirements.
LOOK AT EVERYTHING
Your real estate agent can show you any listed homes. As you view various homes, start to narrow your search by defining more specific parameters and assessing alternative housing styles, configurations and conditions.
USE THE INTERNET
Realtor.ca is your friend and the most comprehensive source of listings on the market.
Do homes in your area sell quickly? If so, then maybe it is a good idea to buy your home first and then sell it.
