Buying In 2026? Don’t Sign Your Offer Until Watch This

Buying a home in 2026? The riskiest moment is not the showing. It is when the offer lands in your inbox and you are asked to sign. Once the seller accepts, what counts is what you agreed to in writing, and there is far more in that agreement than the price. In this video I walk through what I want my own buyers to understand before they sign: financing, inspection, inclusions, rental items, the deposit, the closing date, condo documents, conditions, and the cash you need beyond the down payment. CHAPTERS 0:00 The moment to slow down 1:05 The purchase price is only the beginning 2:20 Pre-approval does not mean your financing is guaranteed 3:25 Don't treat the inspection as a formality 4:40 What exactly are you buying? Inclusions and exclusions 5:30 Rental items: find out what you're assuming 6:10 Your deposit and down payment are not the same thing 7:00 Your closing date is a financial decision too 7:55 Condo buyers: the status certificate and the corporation 8:50 Read the offer as a contract, not a checklist 9:30 Conditions aren't just boxes we check 10:30 The money after the purchase price 11:15 The most dangerous moment: falling in love with the house 12:05 The questions to ask before you sign QUESTIONS TO ASK BEFORE YOU SIGN Is the price supported by the market? Has my financing been discussed with my mortgage professional? What are my conditions, and what happens if I remove them? What is included and excluded? Are there rental items I would be taking on? Where is my deposit coming from, and when is it due? Does the closing date work with the rest of my move? How much cash do I need beyond my down payment? For a condo: what needs to be reviewed about the corporation? PLANNING TO BUY IN 2026? Book a free 45-minute buyer call: https://calendly.com/jyoti-jyotishamn...
