The steps involved in buying a property
Could this property be “the one”? Here’s an overview of the steps involved in becoming the owner. These steps and the legal implications remain the same whether the property is purchased from an individual or through a broker.
One of the first things to do when looking for a property is to get a mortgage preapproval from a financial institution. The goal is to determine borrowing capacity, and as a result, the price range to be looking in.
The property suits the budget and needs? Time to submit an offer to purchase! This document sets out the price, the elements included in the sale, the possession date, the conditions of purchase and all other information relevant to the sale.
Need the form?
The offer to purchase generally includes conditions. The most common are the property passing an inspection, the buyer providing proof of financing and the buyer selling their own property. Once the listed conditions are met, the property is considered sold.
The last step is to see a notary, who is generally chosen by the buyer. This real estate professional drafts the deed of sale and ensures that the interests of all parties involved are respected.
Once the deed of sale is notarized, the new owner gets the keys to the home. All that’s left is to move in!

Owners’ comments
Beautiful wooded lot (#5 386 105) located in Austin near the Abbey of Saint-Benoit in an area known for its views of the hills, sunsets, and many waterways. Ultimate resort location. About ten minutes by car from the Knowlton-Landing and Bryant's Landing boarding docks, which will allow you to easily access the majestic Lake Memphremagog and practice a multitude of water sports. Several hiking trails crisscross the region: Mont Orford National Park, the trails of the Rivière aux Cerises marsh, the trails of Saint-Étienne-de-Bolton, the Eastern Townships trail on Mont Chagnon in Bolton, in addition to many hiking trails that highlight the magnificent landscapes of the region such as the circuit of the Abbaye St-Benoit. In addition, the land is near Magog and is located between two golf courses including the Owl's Head Golf Club and the Mont Orford Golf Club as well as their ski resorts. Although the land has maple syrup production potential in the agricultural zone, more than 400,000 square feet of the land is zoned white. The lot is crossed by a stream but does not have a wetland listed by Ducks Unlimited and by the Ministry of the Environment, the Fight against Climate Change, Wildlife and Parks.
