🎊Congrats to my first time homebuyer clients on closing of their semi-detached home in Markham.
The clients initially spoke a big bank who got them pre-approved for a mortgage amount that was not enough for a freehold townhouse in Markham, which was their goal. They have a baby on the way, so they were in a big rush to make a move.
I was then introduced to them by their realtor (more on this below). On our first consultation call, I already knew they would qualify for a way bigger mortgage amount. After running the numbers, I got them pre-approved for $200k more! 😱
The end result? The clients got more than what they wanted: A beautiful semi-detached home in Markham that they can grow their family in. The process took less than 2 months from start to finish.
Shout out to the realtor partner on this collaboration Jaro Lai. Not only is he a business partner, he’s also my best friend, best man, and I’ve only known him for over 30 years. 🤣 Never had I ever imagined we would be working together when we were growing up. Grateful and blessed for the opportunity!
