COMMON CONTINGENCIES AND CONDITIONS
Providing The Seller's Disclosures
This is the process where you as the seller are required to provide information relating to your home: Seller property condition disclosure – fall out, signed and dated from seller / Commitment for the policy of Title Insurance, showing easements, encroachments and leans / HOA information, budget, assessments, CC*R’S and survey, water rights if applicable. / Copy of any leases affecting the property not expiring prior to closing / Notice of any claims relating to environmental problems and building or zoning code violations.
Buyers Due Diligence; Evaluations And Inspections
This is the time period provided to the buyer to learn, review, inspect and decide if acceptable: The buyer will carefully review all items provided in the seller's disclosure. The buyer may schedule physical condition inspections, tests and evaluations. The buyer will review the costs, terms and availability of homeowners insurance.
Buyers Rights To Cancel Or Resolve Objections
If the buyer determines the evaluations and inspections to be unacceptable, the buyer may: No later than the due diligence deadline, cancel the contract by written notice to seller or no later than the due diligence deadline, resolve in writing any objectives.
Remaining Contingencies And Financing
In the final steps of the transaction, we will coordinate and complete any remaining details: Is the sale contingent upon an appraisal? At what amount did the property appraise? Was the sale contingent upon the buyer selling their previous home? How is the buyers financing going? Are there any last-minute issues for securing their mortgage? Final pre-settlement walk through inspection.
Deal Is Firm
Once the buyer has waived their conditions, your home is now sold and now its a matter of waiting for possession date.
Final Pre-settlemenet Walk Through Inspections
A final walk through by the buyer to verify that the home is in the same condition as when the sale agreement was signed, if the home is not in the same condition we will try our best to get any issues rectified prior to possession/closing date.
CLOSING COSTS
COMMON COSTS
When selling a home there is much more to consider,
It can be extremely overwhelming when your hit with unexpected costs along your real estate journey of selling your home. Having certain documents and payments set aside will help for a much less stressful time leading you up to your closing date.
Discharge of The Mortgage
Check with your mortgage lender to determine if any costs will occur when transferring or releasing your mortgage. Seller could incur penalties for discharging the mortgage before the mortgage contract is up.
Title Insurance
Your mortgage lender may require you to get title insurance if you are putting less then 20% of a down payment,
Adjustments
It's difficult for a home seller to calculate exactly how much money is owed to which utilities on closing day. Your lawyer will ensure that any overpayments or deficiencies on rents, mortgage interest, property tax and utility charges will be corrected, and buyer and seller will be credited or charged accordingly.
Heading to closing!
If you and your buyer have both efficiently taken care of your respective contratural obligations associated with finalizing the sale, the process of completing the transaction will go smoothly with no surprises. A pending sales agreement generally includes contingencies and special conditions that must be fulfilled by the buyer and seller by the closing date, which usually fails 30 to 60 days after both have signed the agreement, Sellers should note buyers will able to get out of a deal during their contingencies period.

When having a realtor represent your home for sale comes at a cost, the efforts of a full-service brokerage usually will be at the common 5% + HST, this includes the efforts of the buyers agent representing the buyer a even split 2.5% + HST to both sides involved. Realtor fees are up for negotiation, but if a realtor cant negotiate why they deserve the 2.5% and the importance of providing the buyers agent the same percentage then how are they going to fight for you when offers start to roll in?
