Every home purchase is different. Your buying strategy should reflect your financing position, timeline, preferred property type, location and current market conditions rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach.

Prepare Before You Search

What Do You Need Before Buying a Home?

You do not need to know everything before starting your home search, but preparing a few key details can make the buying process more focused. Understanding your budget, financing position, property requirements and expected costs can help you make better-informed decisions when suitable homes become available.

01

A Realistic Buying Budget

Start by understanding the price range that may be realistic for your situation. Your budget should consider not only the purchase price, but also your down payment, financing and other costs associated with buying and closing.

02

Financing & Mortgage Preparation

If you plan to finance your purchase, speaking with an appropriate lender or mortgage professional can help you understand your borrowing position. A mortgage pre-approval may also provide useful guidance before you begin making offers.

03

Your Down Payment

Know how much you expect to contribute toward the purchase and understand that down payment requirements can depend on the purchase price and your financing circumstances.

Read the Down Payment Guide →
04

Money for Additional Buying Costs

The purchase price is not the only amount to plan for. Depending on your transaction, you may need to consider land transfer tax, legal costs, inspections, adjustments, moving expenses and other closing-related costs.

05

Clear Property Requirements

Think about the features that are essential and those that are flexible. Property type, bedrooms, bathrooms, parking, layout, commute, neighbourhood and lifestyle preferences can all help narrow your search.

06

A Realistic Buying Timeline

Consider when you would ideally like to purchase and move. Your timeline can affect when to prepare financing, begin searching, arrange viewings and decide when you are ready to make an offer.
