Keep an open mind - Take a look at our Selling Tips page and you'll see our advice on showcasing a home.  HOWEVER, remember that not all sellers know how to effectively showcase their home.  Don't make the mistake of passing on a structurally sound home based on first impressions.  Remember, you are buying the home not the decor.

Know the Neighbourhood - When you're buying a new home you're also buying the neighbourhood.  This is why knowing key facts about the area is important.  Where are the schools, how heavy is the traffic, is there development coming down the road?  Pat can determine the answers to these important questions.

Know How Much You Can Afford - What you can afford depends on your income, credit rating, current monthly expenses, downpayment and the interest rate. You can use our quick links and the affordability calculator to help you out.
