BUYING YOUR HOME
Make A Budget! Obviously many of the items in the checklist involve finances and, more particularly, how to make sure you are fiscally ready for a new home. Long before you sign mortgage papers, see how much you can afford, look at what will and will not work budget-wise for your family and make a budget that is realistic!
Get Pre-Approved! Essentially, one of the very first things you want to do before ever shopping for a home is get pre-approved for a mortgage. Without this part of the parcel intact there is really no sense in even getting the ball rolling on buying a home in the first place. Make sure you get pre-approved before starting to shop.
Start Shopping! Clearly we gave away the fifth item in our list in the fourth bullet point. That is, again, start looking for a new home! The internet can of course can be an excellent means of shopping, but so too can driving around the neighborhoods you are looking at, cold calling realtors and stomping the pavement on route to the new home of your dreams.

Aug 20th, 2018We knew Ellis from High school and when the time came to sell our condo we called him. He knew exactly what to do in order to maximize our time and to get the most amount of dollars from the sale. We SOLD the condo in 1 day, broke the record in the building for the highest SOLD ever. It did not stop there! Ellis also found a beautiful townhouse within days, won the bidding war and completely took care of all the stress and worries that we had. I know it sound like a dream but give him a call and find out for yourself. Loyal friend and 100% professional Realtor!

Aug 8th, 2018Truly a professional! The moment we met he knew exactly what to do and how to position my property to get the top dollar in the market place. Our expectation was high but he and his team delivered more than we expected. At that time our neighbourhood had many homes on the market and we have managed to sell in short period of time. At the same time we were looking for a specious condominium apartment that will fit our large family needs. Within days they have found the solution and we were negotiating our new place. I truly believe that they can deliver all real estate transactions and strongly recommend their services.
