Buying an Ottawa Property

Buying an Ottawa property…whether wanting to upgrade, downsize a home, perhaps move to a new city, neighbourhood or purchase rental unit(s); buying a property is a big undertaking. The costs associated with a property purchase add up and having the right support to navigate the steps and achieve objectives is important to a successful outcome. A Realtor® has strategic partnerships with realty and financial contacts to ensure that clients have extended service support available. While the Realtor® is the team lead researcher, strategist, consultant, project manager and negotiator.

Here are some top-level considerations when thinking about buying a property:

1. 1. Financial Analysis: examine the debt-to-income ratio, save for a down-payment between 5% and up, create a healthy savings account, consider expenses to property ownership, moving and other extraneous costs, prepare a budget.
   2. Mortgage Pre-approval: ensure the right paperwork and financial backing is in place prior to looking for the right property.
   3. Checklist: Identify a list of needs, essential wants and nice-to-have wants, desired location(s) and the highest price points for the purchase of a property.
   4. Navigate Process: Seek out a real estate sales representative who will act as the researcher, strategist, consultant, project manager and negotiator to ensure the experience is focussed around the defined objectives.
