Three simple steps
Step 1: We talk about your plan
First we have a short call. It is free. There is no pressure to sign anything. You tell me where you are from, how long you have been in Canada, and what you want in a home. I answer your questions in plain words. I can speak with you in English, Bangla, Hindi, or Urdu.
If you have a work permit or you just became a permanent resident, I will tell you what that means for buying a home. I will not push you to move fast. We go at your speed.
Step 2: We build your money and pro team
Buying a home takes more than one person. You need a mortgage broker for your loan and a lawyer for the paperwork. I am not a mortgage broker, a lawyer, or a financial advisor, so I will not give you that advice. I will point you to the right pro for each one.
New-to-Canada mortgage programs exist for people with little or no Canadian credit. A mortgage broker will tell you what you qualify for. I can share names of brokers I trust. You choose who you work with.
Step 3: We find and buy the home
Now we look at homes that fit your budget and your family. I set up alerts so you see new listings early. We tour homes together, on evenings or weekends when it works for you.
When you find the right one, I help you write the offer and I explain every line. Before we start, we sign a written buyer agreement. My fee and any rebate are always negotiable and written down. I never quote you a fixed or set rate. The numbers we agree on go in writing: fixed or negotiable, whichever works for you, and set out in a written agreement and provided upon discussion, on a case-by-case basis.
What this costs you
You should always know how a REALTOR® gets paid. My fee and any rebate are always negotiable, and we put them in a written agreement before we start. There is no set or standard rate in Alberta. I will never promise you a certain price, a certain profit, or how fast a home will sell. The written numbers we agree on are shown here: fixed or negotiable, whichever works for you, and set out in a written agreement and provided upon discussion, on a case-by-case basis.
Advice I do not give
I help you buy a home. I am not a lawyer, a mortgage broker, a financial advisor, or a faith advisor. So I will not give you legal, mortgage, money, or religious advice. When you have those questions, I point you to the right pro. For mortgages, I can share brokers I trust. You are always free to pick your own.
