Getting your dream home starts with knowing the right steps. With many new home developments in Ontario launching each season, buyers need a clear plan. Smart preparation helps you find the best value and avoid common mistakes.
Step 1: Research Builder’s Track Record
Look up the builder’s past projects and reputation. Check if they finish on time and handle customer concerns well. Visit their completed projects if possible.
Step 2: Get Pre-Approved for a Mortgage
Talk to your bank early. Know exactly what you can afford. This helps you shop with confidence and move quickly when you find the right property.
Step 3: Study Floor Plans and Features
Compare different layouts and included features. Look at these key points:
- Room sizes and storage space
- Kitchen and bathroom details
- Parking options
- Building amenities
- Future maintenance fees
Step 4: Review Legal Documents
Have a real estate lawyer check all the paperwork. Understand your cooling-off period and any conditions in the agreement.
Step 5: Book an Appointment with Sales Team
Visit the presentation center prepared with your questions. Bring someone who knows construction if possible.
