Buying a home—whether it’s your first or your fifth—is a big deal. Here are 5 smart steps that help Edmonton buyers find the right place and avoid costly mistakes:

  1. Meet with a REALTOR® first. I’ll walk you through the entire process, answer questions, explain costs, and create a personalized plan.

  2. Get pre-approved. It gives you a clear budget and puts you in a stronger position when you find “the one.”

  3. Use smart searches. Set up alerts on my website and favourite the listings that stand out.

  4. Communicate. Let me know what you’re loving or not loving—we’ll narrow the field faster.

  5. Start viewing. I’ll arrange private showings and guide you every step of the way.

???? Pro Tip: Don’t overlook mortgage-plus-improvement options. You can finance renovations into your mortgage if you find a home that’s “almost perfect.”
