Your real estate
buying journey
Before you can make an offer, you’ll need
to know the method of sale being used
for that home.
Remember, the real estate agent, or
your lawyer or conveyancer are there
to support you through the process.
Don’t make an offer on a property
before seeking legal advice.

inspector later too.

ownership and how to identify
risks and potential issues.
