I have no idea what I'm doing...

So... when contemplating buying a house, complete with mortgage and property and... gah!

I can figure out the main things (talk to the bank, possibly a mortgage broker, get the property and building inspected), but are there any pitfalls I should look out for?

I'm looking for advice from people who have done the homeowner/buyer thing.

Thanks!

Oh, please! I would *love* to read it. In fact, if I like it I may well end up buying my own copy. Are you going to Mackayhotep's party? If so, would you mind bringing it with you then?

But of course! And not at all!

In that order!

Also, go have a look at mls.ca and search around for potential properties. It'll give you an idea of the sort of things you'll be looking at, and moreover, crystallize the things you're looking for.

Um. . . could we borrow that book after mousme is through with it?

Naturally. :)
