What Needs to Be in Place

Your equity, closing costs, timing, and documentation all need to be aligned before you move forward.

1
Equity
Your equity can be used for all or part of your down payment—but how much is available, and when, depends on your current mortgage structure.
2
Closing Costs
You’ll still need to account for legal fees, land transfer tax, adjustments, and any costs tied to selling or bridging your current home.
3
Timing
Whether by strategy or necessity, your sale and purchase don’t always close on the same day. That timing affects how funds are accessed and how the move is financed.
4
Documentation
Updated income, mortgage, and property details are required to move forward.

From Offer to Keys

Once your offer is accepted, everything that follows is coordinated to close smoothly.

1
Search & Secure
With a clear plan in place, you can move into the market confidently.
2
Conditional Approval
Once you have an accepted offer, the lender reviews the property and your updated financials—including your sale—and outlines any conditions.
3
Final Approval
All conditions are met. The lender confirms the mortgage approval and you’re cleared to close.
4
Closing
Your lawyer coordinates the final paperwork, funds are received and directed appropriately, and you get the keys to your new home.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Focusing only on the new purchase without understanding how your current home impacts the plan

Assuming because you qualified before, you’ll qualify the same way now

Assuming your mortgage will automatically transfer to a new property—portability depends on the lender, the product, and the timing

Underestimating the complexity of buying and selling at the same time

Not accounting for bridge financing or the gap between selling and closing on the new home

Waiting too long to structure the move, limiting your options
