Purchasing a Condominium

If it is a condominium that you will be purchasing, rest assured that we will review your condominium status certificate with you and will bring any deficiencies to your attention.

One area that we noticed that causes some confusion for condominium purchasers is the difference between parking units and common elements parking spaces, also called exclusive-use parking. The primary difference between the two types of parking is that exclusive-use parking do not have their own separate legal title and are not legally owned by their user who is also the owner of the dwelling unit in the condominium. This means that the user of the parking unit cannot sell the parking space separately from the dwelling unit.

Sale

Whether you’re upsizing or downsizing, our dedicated real estate team will help to make your property sale easy, efficient, and understandable. We always recommend our clients to meet with us prior to signing the Agreement of Purchase and Sale. However, if you did not get a chance to talk to us in advance, we make sure that the legal documents you will be signing match what you agreed on in the Agreement of Purchase and Sale. For instance, we ascertain that you do not sign yourself up for guaranteeing the good working condition of the fixtures in your property, while in the Agreement of Purchase and Sale you only agreed to an as-is condition.
