 A Step-by-Step Guide to Buying a House with Kevin Baldwin

A Step-by-Step Guide to Buying a House with Kevin Baldwin

Welcome to The Silver Fox Real Estate Marketing blog! I'm Kevin Baldwin, and today I'm here to walk you through the essential steps of buying a house. Whether you're a first-time homebuyer or looking to move up the property ladder, understanding these steps is crucial.

Why Follow These Steps?

Imagine walking into a car dealership to buy a car. The first thing they'd do is check if you can actually drive, right? Similarly, the very first step in home buying involves securing your financing. It’s all about ensuring you're genuinely prepared to make such a significant investment.

Step 1: Get Your Finances in Order

Before you even start looking at homes, you need to understand your financial situation. This isn't just about seeing a low interest rate advertised on Facebook and making a quick call. True pre-approval involves detailed checks by a bank or mortgage broker who will ask critical questions about your employment, income, and current living situation. This step ensures that when you get a pre-approval for a mortgage, it's based on a thorough understanding of your finances.

Step 2: Define What You Want

Now, think about what you really want and need in a home. Do you need a large garage, a finished basement, or perhaps a single-story home instead of a two-story? Make a list of your must-haves and share this with your realtor. This will not only streamline your search but also prevent you from wasting time looking at properties that don’t meet your criteria.

Step 3: Understand the Impact of Big Purchases

Here’s a crucial piece of advice: Do not make large purchases after getting pre-approved and before closing on your home. Why? Because such expenditures can affect your credit and debt ratios, leading the bank to revoke your mortgage offer at the last moment. This could mean losing your down payment and, more importantly, the house.

Step 4: Conditions on Your Offer

When you find a home and are ready to make an offer, ensure it includes conditions on financing and a home inspection. Even if a house seems perfect, a professional inspection can uncover hidden problems. This condition saves you from committing to a property that might have significant unseen issues.

Step 5: Understand Your Closing Process

Lastly, be aware of the closing process. This includes everything from the timing (avoid holidays and weekends) to understanding potential penalties if you need to break your mortgage early. Make sure all paperwork is timely and correctly processed to avoid last-minute surprises.

Remember Your Legal Timelines

It’s also vital to keep track of when you need to sign documents and the actual possession date. These details are crucial to ensure a smooth transition to your new home without any hiccups.


Buying a house is a significant step, but with the right preparation and understanding, it can be much less daunting. If you have any questions or need further assistance, feel free to reach out through my website at KevinBaldwin.ca.

Thank you for tuning in, and happy house hunting!
