Home Buying Timeline

  • You will confirm your Down Payment and work out the Approval Details at this stage. Chatting with a mortgage broker is the best way to figure out your options.

  • What are your needs, wants and wishes for a property? Getting this narrowed down will set us up for success later

  • I will help guide you throughout the search and can set up a schedule to show you the homes that are the best fit for your criteria. We will work together to see what is available.

  • When preparing the offer, you usually think of Price and Possession. But there is many other terms and conditions to consider

  • During this time, we will work out all the details of our offer. It could include a home inspection or confirming information with the lender.

  • Once all the offer conditions have been satisfied, we can complete a waiver, and the home will be yours!

  • Only a few final things to do! On the possession day, we will meet and look at your new home!

Happy Home Buyers

  • Melissa was so wonderful and accommodating with the extra challenges that come with an out of province move and working with a relocation company. She was patient, insightful, and continued showing us houses all over West Edmonton until we found one that was perfect for us. We are so excited for our new home - thank you so much Melissa!

  • Working with Melissa was great! I was a first time homebuyer and so I had a lot of concerns and questions but Melissa was able to handle all of them!! Will definitely be working with Melissa again in the future and would recommend her to anyone in the Edmonton area!! Thanks again Melissa

  • I want to share the amazing experience we had with Melissa. Melissa helped us navigate the chaos of buying our first home in a booming Fort Saskatchewan market. I found her to be patient, honest, hardworking, and smart. We never felt pressured to do anything we weren't interested in. She was always organized (something our mortgage advisor also appreciated) and accommodating. Whenever we pointed out a problem with a house to her, she wouldn't ignore our questions, she would always find the answers or investigate for us. She is also knowledgeable about good building materials. So if you're looking for a realtor who knows the market, is honest and will work hard for you then Melissa is your gal!

  • She is the kind of realtor that everyone should aspire to be and want to work with when buying a house. She didn’t push, she didn’t rush us, she was very quick to respond to things and have paperwork done, she gave us space when we needed to talk things over ourselves and she’s very polite! Highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a house!
