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!

CHEMIN DES ROSSIGNOLS HOUSING PROJECT IN SAINTE-ANNE-DES-LACS LOT #6
*** NEW ASKING PRICE ***
Superb 95,000 square feet lot in a brand new housing development. For sale by owner (no taxes), perfect for building your new house yourself! Housing rules are simple and aimed at ensuring every lot's privacy without being restrictive on material choices (limitations on cutting trees within a certain distance from each property line for instance...).
In my opinion, this is one of the best lots from this development, with a gradual slope leading to a 35-40k square foot plateau at the back half portion of the lot, with a backyard oriented south-west for perfect sun exposure in the afternoons and a perfect topography to build your house with an exposed basement and a great view of the surrounding valleys. There are no humid areas marked on this lot and access to the street is much easier than the adjacent lots from Phase 2! The lot across the street was donated to the city to build a park for the kids someday.
Easy access to Highway 15 and close to all public services offered in Prevost, Saint-Jerome, and Saint-Sauveur. +/- 3km from the Fôret Héritage main parking lot.
The street is built to the city's standards and is already under municipal ownership, electricity and services are also ready to connect to (all service fees included in the selling price). You won't need to deal with any sort of agreement with the city to cover the service costs (+/- $10,000 value in some instances). The royalty of more than 2000$ to cover the installation of the hydroelectric service on the street was already paid to the promoter and included in the selling price. Listing at a fair price compared to phase 2 remaining lots.
Must see! Contact me for instructions if you wish to visit this lot, I can tell you how to find the flags around the perimeter of the lot and provide approximate GPS coordinates to better follow the property limits. The street is now on Google Maps!
Agents are welcome provided you have a serious buyer!
