Buyer's Guide

Everything you need to buy with confidence.

Buying a home is one of the biggest decisions you'll ever make. We've broken the process down into clear, manageable steps so you always know what's coming next — and you never feel alone.

Why buy with Cominghomes?

Jennifer and Stephen have guided hundreds of buyers through the GTA market — from first-time purchases to upsizing families and investment properties. Their approach is simple: educate, advocate, and never rush you into a decision that isn't right for you.

The Process

Your step-by-step buying roadmap

01

Get Pre-Approved

Before you start touring homes, get a mortgage pre-approval. This tells you exactly what you can afford, strengthens your offer, and shows sellers you're a serious buyer. We can connect you with trusted mortgage professionals in our network.

02

Define Your Needs & Wants

We'll sit down with you to understand your must-haves, nice-to-haves, and deal-breakers. Neighbourhood, commute, school district, home type, size — getting clear on priorities saves time and keeps the search focused.

03

Start Your Home Search

We'll set you up with a custom MLS search and personally curate listings that match your criteria. When something promising comes up, we move fast — the GTA market rewards buyers who are prepared and decisive.

04

Tour Homes

We'll accompany you to every showing and help you evaluate each property objectively. We'll point out things you might miss — condition issues, layout considerations, neighbourhood factors — so you can make informed decisions.

05

Make an Offer

When you find the right home, we'll craft a competitive, strategic offer. Stephen's negotiation expertise means you'll go in with the best possible position — whether that's price, conditions, or closing terms.

06

Due Diligence & Conditions

Once your offer is accepted, we'll guide you through home inspection, financing confirmation, and any other conditions. We'll help you interpret results and decide how to proceed with confidence.

07

Close & Get Your Keys

Your lawyer handles the final paperwork and title transfer. We'll be there to answer any last-minute questions and make sure closing day goes smoothly. Then it's time to celebrate — you're a homeowner.
