Questions to Ask Before Making an Offer

A simple checklist to help you buy with confidence.

Making an offer is one of the biggest moments in a home purchase. Asking the right questions beforehand can save you stress later.

How long has the home been on the market? What’s included in the sale? Are there any known issues, recent updates or upcoming costs?

Consider conditions such as financing and inspection carefully, and understand how they may affect the strength of your offer.

Most importantly, ask yourself whether the home truly fits your needs. Confidence comes from being clear about what you want.
