Find a Realtor!

Working with a realtor is the best way to make sure you get the best deal on your Edmonton home purchase. Iconic YEG is an experienced and knowledgeable local real estate team that will help you find the perfect home for your needs.

Get Pre-Approved

Getting pre-approved for a mortgage is an important step in the home buying process. This will give you an idea of how much house you can afford and will also show sellers that you are serious about purchasing a property.

Research Your Options

Once you have been pre-approved, it’s time to start researching different properties in Edmonton and surrounding areas. Iconic YEG can provide valuable insight into the local market and help you identify homes that meet your criteria.

Make an Offer

After finding a property that meets your needs, it’s time to make an offer. Iconic YEG can provide advice on how to structure your offer so that it stands out from other buyers and gives you the best chance of being accepted by the seller. 

Negotiate Terms

Once your offer has been accepted, it’s time to negotiate terms such as closing date, contingencies, and other items included in the sale of the home such as appliances or window coverings. Iconic YEG will negotiate on your behalf to ensure that all terms are fair and equitable for both parties involved in the transaction.

Hire Inspectors

Before finalizing any agreement, it’s important to hire professional inspectors to check for any potential issues with the property such as structural damage or pest infestations. Iconic YEG can recommend reliable inspectors who specialize in residential properties in Edmonton and surrounding areas so that no surprises arise after closing day arrives.

Finalize Financing

Once all inspections have been completed, it’s time to finalize financing arrangements with your lender if necessary and sign all documents related to the purchase of the property including title deeds and insurance documents among others. Iconic YEG will guide you through this process every step of the way so that everything goes smoothly on closing day!  

Closing Day

On closing day, all parties involved in the transaction will sign off on all documents related to purchase of the home including title deeds, insurance documents, financing agreements etc., at which point ownership of the property officially transfers from seller to buyer!  Iconic YEG will be there every step of this process so that everything goes smoothly!
