Getting Pre-Approved

  • It is generally good practice to get financially qualified before you start looking at a certain price range for your home so that you do not waste your time and your  Realtors time

Wish List

  • Make a concise list of things that you are looking for in a home

Example 

  •  3 bedrooms / 2 bathrooms
  •  Hardwood floors
  •  Ocean view
  •  Fireplace
  • Workshop
  • This will make it much easier to narrow your choices and to focus your efforts on homes you are interested in buying

Making An Offer

  • With the assistance of a knowledgeable Vancouver Island Real Estate agent you will know if you have any bargaining room when making an offer
  • A correctly priced house may have little or no bargaining room while an overpriced house generally has lots of negotiating room
  • A comparative market analysis of a property can reveal a lot about its value and the margin at which it is priced

Looking For Potential

  • Sometimes a property that is in poor shape or which shows poorly, may have great selling potential but this potential must be revealed
  • Original hardwood floors under ugly carpet
  • Fresh paint and a thorough cleaning may upgrade it extensively and inexpensively
  • Small house in affluent area where rezoning or rebuilding is a strong possibility
