Selling a Home
Once you’ve reached out to our office with details about your home sale, you might be curious about the next steps. Here’s a breakdown of what happens:
- Receiving the Contract: Your Realtor sends us the Contract of Purchase and Sale.
- Checking Title: We do a title search to make sure you can provide a “clear title” to the Buyer.
- Sorting Mortgages: We obtain mortgage statements from your mortgage holder.
- Adjustments Review: We get the Sellers Statement of Adjustments from the Buyer’s notary or lawyer, checking payments, and adjustments for property taxes, municipal utility charges, and strata fees.
- Sending You Docs: Before our in-office meeting, we will send you all the necessary documents for your review.
- In-Person Meeting: We meet with you, usually a few days before the Completion date, to go through and sign all the closing documents.
