In the upcoming sections, we will focus on essential aspects of real estate transactions: Writing an Offer, Subjects and Conditions, Acceptance, Counter-Offers, and Dates. These topics are key to understanding and navigating the complex process of buying property, from initiating an offer to finalizing the sale. Each segment will provide insights into how to effectively manage these stages for a successful real estate transaction.
HOME BUYING PROCESS
WRITING AN OFFER
When you find your ideal home, writing an offer is the next step. This includes deciding on a fair price, making a deposit as a sign of commitment, setting dates for completion and possession, and specifying which items like fixtures or appliances should be included in the sale. Each element is crucial to make your offer clear and compelling.
SUBJECTS AND CONDITIONS
Subjects and conditions in a real estate offer are key clauses that protect the buyer. They typically include securing financing, conducting a building inspection, obtaining property insurance, assessing property disclosures for any hidden issues, and performing a title search to reveal any legal constraints on the property.
ACCEPTED, COUNTER-OFFERS, & DATES
You’ve found your dream home, so what’s next? There are so many things to consider at this point from making your initial offer to having the home inspected. Working with an experienced and knowledgeable real estate agent in Chilliwack will ensure that all aspects of your home purchase are covered and that, as a buyer, your best interests are taken into account and you are properly looked after.
IMPORTANCE OF PRE-QUALIFICATION
Financing is typically the most time-consuming subject to fulfill. Ensure you've provided your lender with all necessary application information beforehand, including letters from your employer, past tax details, lease paperwork, or recurring payments. Gathering these in advance is strongly recommended to streamline the process before making an offer.
SUBJECT REMOVAL AND DEPOSIT
After fulfilling all offer conditions, we'll draft subject removal paperwork and place your deposit in a trust account. At this stage, both parties are legally obligated to complete the contract.
Your notary/lawyer will receive all relevant paperwork and schedule a signing date, coordinating payments between you, the lender, and the seller.
COMPLETION AND POSSESSION
All that's left now is to wait, and prepare.
On the completion date, your lawyer/notary will file the paperwork to transfer the title of land in your name, and process all payments.
Assuming this step completes without a hitch, the property will be yours to legally possess on the possession date. The seller is obligated to grant you keys and access to the property on this date at the time agreed upon.
