There are some major differences in buying property in Vancouver, compared to buying property in the UK |
||
The three major differences are:
- There are No Chains - No gazumping - No Final Exchange of contracts
- 2. You have personal representation
- 3. You receive representation at NO cost.
• No Chains - No Gazumping - No Final Exchange of Contracts (what a pleasure!).
Have you ever attempted to purchase a home and the deal falls through because the seller changes their mind at the last minute? Or maybe one of the sellers in a chain backs out and the whole chain collapses. You will not experience those pains in Vancouver. In Vancouver once someone commits to selling their house to you they cannot change their mind. Likewise, once you commit to buying their home you cannot change your mind. All real estate transactions in Vancouver are contractual. For this reason it is important for you to sell your home and have funds available before you put in an offer in Vancouver.
• Representation
Unlike the UK where you are pretty much left to your own devices, In Vancouver you have a dedicated realtor working with you helping you find the right home. Every single home in Vancouver is available through every single realtor. There is no need to go from shop front to shop front or from realtor to realtor. Very often in the UK only the seller employs the services of an estate agent. However in Vancouver every buyer utilizes the services of a Realtor. The realtors job is to help the buyer find the right home for them.
• You Have Representation at No Cost
The person selling their home pays a fee to the selling realtor. This fee is divided between the selling realtor and the buying realtor (that's me). As the buyer of the home there is no cost to you of my services.
