Are you looking to buy, sell or refinance a residential property?

Brampton Real Estate Lawyers

Any real estate project necessitates close consideration of various factors, often spans many aspects of the law and multiple provincial jurisdictions. Purchasing property is a financial transaction whether youโ€™re a first-time property buyer or an established real estate developer. You should have an attorney who can protect your legal interests and rights throughout the process.ย 

Whether youโ€™re buying or selling a property, there is never 100% certainty that you wonโ€™t run into some sort of issue, either during or after the sale, unless you have a Brampton real estate lawyer to help you. While working with an attorney wonโ€™t guarantee that nothing will come up, you can rest assured that any concerns or problems will be dealt with correctly.

Unlike a realtor, your Brampton real estate lawyer will have insurance policies to claim from if they cause any sale error.ย  Simultaneously, real estate law practitioners such as ourselves also have the expertise you would need to take any legal proceedings to court if you think the seller wrongly sold you a property.

Real Estate Lawyer in Brampton FAQs

Can any foreigner buy property in Canada?

Non-residents have the same ownership rights as residents, and Canada has an open-door policy regarding foreigners trying to purchase a property.

Why is title insurance necessary?

Your title insurance is your most vital safeguard against hidden defects that could elude even the most comprehensive public record check.ย 

Why is real estate expensive in Canada?

Houses in Canada are so costly because thereโ€™s a greater demand for properties than there are available. Lower interest rates, increasing immigration, and an influx of foreign capital are all factors that have led to the increase in home prices in Canada in the last few years.

I want to buy my first home -- where do I start?

Pre-approval for your mortgage is the first step. A pre-approval tells you exactly what you can afford to spend and holds the interest rate up to 90 days. This enables you to look at houses with confidence.
