The Homebuyers’ Checklist

Buying a home doesn't have to be a chore

Find your dream home and enjoy a totally stress-free homebuying process with our carefully designed programs and partners. All it takes is five easy steps, and then start packing.

Step 1

Get your finances in order

Step one is all about money matters. You’ll want to find out what you can afford, secure your down payment that you are comfortable with and finally get approved.

Hot Hopewell tip:
It’s easy to figure out how much you can afford with our handy Mortgage Calculator. Already have an idea of what you can afford? Great, book an appointment with one of our advisors.

Hopewell perk:
Our Preferred Mortgage Partners can save you money, and be a great ally during the homeownership planning. Take a look at our partners.

Step 2

Sell your current home

Before you can settle into a new Hopewell home, you have to part with your current home. But with our preferred Realtor partners, you can get moving faster - and save some money.

Hot Hopewell tip:
Our preferred Realtor Partners provide you with a complete home marketing package that includes home staging consultation and photography.

Hopewell perk:
Think simple. One easy way to simplify the home buying experience is with our Preferred Mortgage Partners. In fact, when you work with them, we pay your listing fees when you sell your current home.

Step 3

Find the floorplan you love

Find it, then put it on hold. We don’t want anyone else scooping it up. Browse family-friendly communities and thoughtful interior designs on our website. And use our home gallery and virtual tour feature to explore everything from condos to Front-Attached Garage models.

Hot Hopewell tip:
You can place a hold directly on our website! Simply click into our lot maps to save your fave!

Hopewell perk:
You can visit our beautifully staged show homes and enjoy touring the community.

Step 4

Personalize the design

Whether your family is growing, or you’re downsizing, we have features and floorplans designed to suit your exact needs. Personalize your space with a flex room, spice kitchen, or add investment opportunities like an extra bedroom or legal basement suite.

Hot Hopewell tip:
At our Hopewell Design Studio you can expect a large selection of carefully curated floorplans, finishings, colour palettes and more. Come inspired and ready to be inspired. 

Hopewell perk:
Unlike other builders, you can choose all your finishings and must-have features right at our showhomes. This means full price transparency, no sticker shock and no running between external suppliers and shops.

Step 5

Prepare to make your move

Once you’ve done the deal, it’s time to get ready for your big day. Take advantage of our Hopewell Price Advantage, which includes programs like Virtuo, a moving concierge service that will help successfully plan your move on a stress-free timeline.

Hot Hopewell tip:
Work with a Master Builder like Hopewell. It’s a simple way to ensure you get quality and peace-of-mind warranties.

Hopewell perk:
You work with a personal Customer Experience Specialist who will answer all your questions and keep you in the loop on building milestones.
