The Process

How I'll Help You
Find Your Home

Buying a home doesn't have to feel overwhelming. Here's exactly what working together looks like, from our first conversation to the moment you get your keys.

01

Discovery Call

We start with a conversation — not a sales pitch. I want to understand what you're looking for, your timeline, your must-haves, and your dealbreakers. This call is about you, not me.

  • Your ideal neighbourhoods and lifestyle
  • Budget reality check and financing readiness
  • Timeline and any constraints
  • Questions you have about the Surrey market
02

Mortgage Readiness

Before we tour a single home, let's make sure your financing is sorted. I'll connect you with trusted mortgage brokers who specialize in the BC market and understand the stress test rules.

  • Know your true budget, not a guess
  • Stronger position when making offers
  • No heartbreak from homes outside your range
03

Neighbourhood Matching

Surrey has over a dozen distinct neighbourhoods. I'll match your lifestyle, commute, family needs, and budget to the areas that actually make sense — not just what's trending on social media.

  • School catchments and family amenities
  • Commute patterns and transit access
  • Future development and growth potential
04

Home Search

I curate listings based on everything we've discussed. You won't get a firehose of MLS emails — you'll get hand-picked properties that actually match what you told me you want.

  • Curated listings, not auto-emails
  • Off-market and pre-list opportunities
  • Honest assessments on each property
05

Viewings

When we walk through a home, I'm not just opening doors. I'm checking for things you might miss — drainage issues, strata red flags, renovation quality, and whether the listing price actually makes sense.

  • Structural and maintenance red flags
  • Neighbourhood context and comparables
  • Honest opinion, even when it's not what you want to hear
06

Offer Strategy

Writing an offer is where experience matters most. I'll help you craft a competitive offer that protects your interests — understanding when to go aggressive and when to hold back.

  • Market analysis to determine fair price
  • Subject clauses that protect you
  • Strategic timing and presentation
07

Negotiation & Subjects

Once your offer is accepted, the work isn't over. I coordinate inspections, appraisals, and financing conditions. If issues arise, I negotiate repairs or credits on your behalf.

  • Home inspection coordination
  • Appraisal and financing conditions
  • Repair negotiations and credits
08

Closing & Keys

From subject removal to your lawyer's office to the moment you get your keys — I'm with you through every step. I even do a final walkthrough to make sure everything is exactly as promised.

  • Lawyer and notary coordination
  • Final walkthrough before completion
  • Move-in day — keys in hand

Common
Questions

Everything you need to know about buying a home in Surrey, BC.

In most cases, you don't pay your agent directly. The seller typically pays the total commission, which is split between the listing agent and buyer's agent. However, recent BC regulations require buyers to sign a Buyer Representation Agreement that discloses how your agent is compensated. I'll explain exactly how this works in our first conversation.
Strongly recommended. Pre-approval tells you exactly what you can afford, makes your offers stronger, and prevents the heartbreak of falling in love with a home outside your budget. I can connect you with trusted mortgage brokers who know the BC market.
Typically 2-4 months from starting your search to getting keys, though it varies. The search itself might take a few weeks to a few months depending on your criteria and market conditions. Once you have an accepted offer, closing is usually 30-60 days.
BC's Home Buyer Rescission Period gives you 3 business days after an accepted offer to back out for any reason. The cost is 0.25% of the purchase price. It's a protection for buyers, though it's not applicable in all situations.
Minimum 5% for homes under $500K, 10% for the portion between $500K and $1M, and 20% for anything over $1M. However, putting less than 20% down requires mortgage insurance (CMHC).
