WHAT TO LOOK FOR WHEN VIEWING A PROPERTY

Here are a few questions and ideas to consider when viewing homes to help make the process easier and more productive:

• Does the home have your “needs” features, aka the must haves? (For example, number of bedrooms, closet space, kitchen size, etc.)

• Does the home have any of your “wants” features (those you’d like to have but would be willing to forgo?)

• What is the general condition of the home? (Are there signs that the owners have kept up with repairs and maintenance?)

• Will the home need any major repairs, remodelling or renovations? Is there anything like the furnace that may need to be replaced soon?

• What do you like most about the home?

• Is there anything about the home you don’t like? Can that be changed with a remodelling or renovation now or in the future?

• Take a walk around the neighbourhood. Are the homes well-kept, indicating pride of ownership?

• Do you like where the home is situated in the neighbourhood?

• Does the neighbourhood have what you want? (For example, access to public transit, shopping, local parks, etc.)

Viewing properties should always be a smooth process. It’s my job to help make the process easy and productive for you, so you can find the home you want.
