BUYING A HOME IN 10 STEPS

1. Clarify your goals and budget

Open notebook with sections for daily goals and reflections, a gray pen resting diagonally across the pages, and a light gray background.

We talk about what you want, where you want to be and what makes sense financially. Toronto has a lot of micro-neighbourhoods, and your budget goes further in some pockets than others. I help you narrow down the areas that match your lifestyle and comfort zone.

2. Get a proper pre-approval

Scrabble letter tiles spelling out the word 'MORTGAGE' on a wooden surface.

In Toronto, a strong pre-approval is everything. It determines your leverage in competitive situations and saves you from surprises later. I’ll point you toward reliable mortgage professionals who give clear numbers and fast turnaround times.

3. Build a focused search strategy

Once we dial in your criteria, you’ll start getting listings that actually match what you’re looking for. No endless scrolling or guesswork, you will receive curated listings emailed to you in real time the moment they hit the market. The goal is simple: keep you ahead of other buyers and focused only on homes that make sense for you.

4. Tour homes and understand value

Two people are looking out of an open skylight window onto a cityscape with buildings and a clear sky.

Seeing homes in person is where buyers develop real confidence. I’ll walk you through the pros, cons and the true market value of each property so you can compare options clearly. Toronto homes vary wildly in condition and pricing — I make sure you understand why.

5. Identify risks and red flags early

Every home has a story. I help you spot things that affect long-term value: poor renovations, structural issues, condo financial health, noise, parking limitations, zoning, and neighbourhood trends. The goal is to protect you from surprises.

6. Create your offer strategy

Every listing requires a different approach. Offer nights, stale listings, new builds, private sales — they all need their own strategy. My job is to position you properly, time things right and make sure your offer is competitive without overpaying.

7. Negotiate with clarity and confidence

Two people working at a desk with laptops and documents, one person holding a pencil and pointing at the papers, the other person holding a pen. There are multiple pens on the desk.

When it’s time to negotiate, I handle the communication and strategy so you stay calm and informed. Whether we’re competing or negotiating on a slower listing, you’ll know exactly why we’re offering what we’re offering and what your options are.

8. Secure financing, inspection and legal review

If you’re buying a freehold, a proper home inspection is crucial. It helps you understand the condition of the house, potential repairs and future costs.
If you’re buying a condo, the status certificate review is just as important. Your lawyer will look at the building’s financial health, reserve fund, rules, upcoming special assessments and anything that could affect your ownership.
During this stage, I make sure everything is reviewed properly, deadlines are met and you have a clear picture before moving forward.

9. Close smoothly and prepare for move-in

Calendar with red pushpins marking the 5th, 11th, 17th, 24th, and 30th days of the month.

From scheduling your pre-closing visits to reviewing the final checklist, I help you through the last steps so closing day feels simple. Utilities, paperwork, details — everything stays organized and handled.

10. Support after closing

Once you’ve moved in, I’m still here as a resource for anything you need — contractors, trades, designers, rental advice or future planning. Most buyers have questions after closing, and I’m available long after the keys are handed over.
