However, reaching this landmark doesn\u2019t always mean you should move ahead with the deal. There are several instances that should inspire reflection and, potentially, the decision to walk away.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>In the latest instalment of Ask a Wahi Realtor, we consult Wahi Broker of Record Anne Alkok on when a buyer should walk away from a deal. (Note that walking away from a deal after an agreement to purchase has been signed can be incredibly costly. You\u2019ll lose your deposit and the seller could also sue you. That\u2019s why it\u2019s best to include a number of conditions in your offer, such as a home inspection clause, as you\u2019ll learn from this article.)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Here are five legitimate reasons for a buyer to walk away from a deal. <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 21px;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>1. The home inspection reveals major issues.\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Every homebuyer should have a <a href=\"https:\/\/wahi.com\/ca\/en\/learning-centre\/real-estate-101\/buy\/ask-a-wahi-realtor-conditions-homebuyers-should-consider\/\">home inspection as a condition<\/a> in their purchase offer. Most commonly, the buyer foots the bill for an inspection, which provides a detailed overview of the property and any potential issues. It\u2019s not unusual for a home inspection to reveal certain problems, but major issues such give the buyer pause. These could include signs of structural movement, foundation problems, failing septic systems, severe water damage or mould, and more. \u201cCosts related to deferred maintenance on the part of the current owner can rapidly turn what seems to be a good deal into a financial nightmare,\u201d says Alkok.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"><br \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 21px;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 21px;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>2. Your financing changes (or the list price no longer makes sense).\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the appraised value of the property comes in lower than expected, or the monthly payments are too much of a stretch for your budget, it may be time to walk away \u2014 even if you\u2019re emotionally attached to the property. In all likelihood, you do not want to join the ranks of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/blog\/canadians-are-going-house-poor-survey\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">one-in-four Canadians<\/a> who identify as house poor, which includes homeowners who spend more than 30% of their income on housing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The same is true if the market value is no longer consistent with the purchase price. \u201cIf recent comparable sales or fast-changing market conditions suggest the buyer is materially overpaying, walking away may be the smart move,\u201d says Alkok. Greater Toronto Area homebuyers can keep up to date with the latest data by using Wahi. For example, using the latest data, the digital real estate platform\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/wahi.com\/ca\/en\/market-pulse\">Market Pulse tool<\/a> tells homebuyers whether certain neighbourhoods favour buyers or sellers.\u00a0<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>3.

The same goes for if you\u2019re receiving inconsistent answers from the seller, they\u2019re trying to pressure you excessively into signing a purchase agreement, or they\u2019re being otherwise evasive in any way. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243;

The status certificate, which often runs hundreds of pages, includes lots of important information about the unit as well the overall financial health of the condo corporation. Through this documentation, you can learn about the condo corporation\u2019s reserve fund, maintenance fees, any pending litigation, and much, much more. When reviewing the document, you may discover that the unit you\u2019re about to purchase has an outstanding special assessment, which is a one-time charge levied on owners to cover costs that exceed what is available in the condo corporations operating or reserve accounts. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>5.
