BUYING A HOME WITH JANE

My primary goal is to ensure my clients have an exceptional real estate experience that is beyond their expectations. My passion for selling real estate started over 20 years ago and grows every time my clients’ real estate dreams come true.  I am honest, hardworking, dedicated, passionate, knowledgeable, experienced, results driven and my clients trust and have the utmost confidence in my integrity and abilities.

Choosing to buy a home is one of the biggest decisions you’ll make in your life.  We will start by discussing what type of home will best suit your lifestyle, preferred neighbourhoods, price range and timeline. I will help you prioritize which features are most important to your lifestyle, whether it is highly-rated schools or proximity to certain amenities such as parks, health care or recreation facilities. In addition,  I will explain what you can expect during the entire home buying process, answer your questions and address any concerns.

Getting Your Finances In Order

You will need to meet with your bank or a mortgage broker to determine what you can afford. Shopping around for the best rate is highly recommended.  

Neighbourhood Expertise 

Having lived and worked in Toronto’s West End, I know its neighbourhoods and the features and amenities each area offers.   I can personally help you choose the community that is best suited for you and your family.

The Search

I will provide you with new listings through the Toronto Real Estate Board’s Prospect Match Search – you will receive up to date listings daily.  I have 20 years of experience and knowledge and will guide you through the viewing process to show you features you may not have noticed plus issues you may not have spotted. 

Expert Negotiation  

My expert negotiation skills are critical to assist you in situations such as multiple offers for the best outcome for you . My knowledge and experience help  protect you from potential situations/issues and get the offer accepted.     

Network of Professionals

I have developed relationships with a large network of professionals who are experts in their fields.  Mortgage lenders, qualified home inspectors, lawyers, cleaners, movers and more who can help you through every step. I can also recommend trusted tradespeople so you can start receiving quotes for any renovations you may wish to carry out once you take possession of the home.  

Closing 

I will arrange buyer visits to your new home allowing you to take measurements, plan decorating, renovations and more.  You will finalize your mortgage financing with your lender and contact your lawyer to prepare for the closing.

At this point, congratulations are in order! Becoming a new homeowner is one of the most liberating things you’ll ever experience. There are many benefits to home ownership — pride of ownership, the ability to make home improvements, building equity, appreciation — the list goes on.  

Follow-up 

I am still just a phone call or email away to help with any questions or concerns you may have with your new property.
