Frequently Asked Questions – Buyers
I want to buy, but I don't know where to start…
We begin with a simple meeting to clarify your needs, budget, and timeline. Then we build a clear plan for next steps — no pressure.
How do I know how much I can afford?
A pre-approval from a bank or mortgage broker is the best way to know your real purchasing power. It avoids disappointment and gives you a clear framework.
Is pre-approval really useful?
Yes. In a competitive market, it can make the difference between an accepted and a rejected offer. It also gives you tremendous peace of mind.
How long does the buying process take?
It depends on your criteria… and sometimes on that love-at-first-sight moment. Some find quickly, others take more time. We adapt to your pace.
What costs should I expect before and after the purchase?
Inspection, notary fees, welcome tax, down payment, various adjustments. We provide you with a clear list from the start to avoid any surprises.
How do property viewings work?
We select properties together, compare, analyze, and ask the right questions. You visit — we help you decode what you see.
What is a purchase offer?
It's your official offer: price, dates, conditions, and protections. We prepare it with you, point by point.
What if the property I love is very popular?
We build a personalized strategy to be competitive, without exceeding your financial limits or comfort level.
Should I always get an inspection?
It's not mandatory, but strongly recommended. It's the best way to truly understand what you're buying.
The inspection reveals a problem… what do we do?
We analyze the situation together and decide: renegotiation, correction, or withdrawal. You're never alone.
My purchase offer has been accepted. Now what?
We fulfill the conditions (inspection, financing), coordinate the documents, and prepare the transaction at the notary.
When should I contact the notary?
As soon as the conditions are met. The sooner it's done, the smoother the transaction.
When do I get the keys?
On the day of signing at the notary, once the funds have been transferred. At that point, the property is officially yours.
Can I buy if my home hasn't sold yet?
Yes. There are several strategies available, such as a sale condition. We explain your options so you can move forward without putting yourself at risk.
What is a legal warranty?
It protects against hidden defects and ensures the property matches what was represented. Some properties are sold without a warranty, which requires more in-depth analysis.
What is a seller's declaration?
It's a document detailing the property's history and condition: renovations, repairs, known issues. An essential tool for making an informed decision.
