Understanding Pre-Reservation

Pre-reservation is like marking your territory on a blueprint. It's the process of expressing your interest in a property before it's entirely constructed. By pre-reserving, you typically pay a deposit, which secures your priority to choose a home once it's ready for sale. This early bird move often comes with perks like the first pick of units or the chance to customize features according to your taste.

The Financing Journey

Financing a pre-construction townhome is different from buying a resale home. The payment is usually structured in instalments. Initially, you'll provide a series of deposits contributing to your down payment. Obtaining a mortgage pre-approval early on is crucial to understand your budget and ensure you can secure the necessary funds when the final payment is due upon completion.

From Groundbreaking to Framing

Buying pre-construction means you're part of the home-building process from the ground up. It starts with the groundbreaking, where the first sod is turned, followed by the pouring of the foundation—a critical phase that sets the stage for your home's structure. Then comes the framing, where you'll see the skeleton of your townhome taking shape, giving you the first real glimpse of your new dwelling.

Customization and Upgrades

One of the joys of pre-construction is the ability to make your home truly yours. This can range from selecting the type of countertops in the kitchen to the colour of the walls. At The Docks, we provide a selection window where you can make these choices and even opt for additional upgrades that might be available.

Final Steps Before Move-In

As construction nears completion, you'll be kept in the loop for inspections and walkthroughs. This is when you can see your selections come to life and ensure everything meets your expectations. Any discrepancies from the agreed-upon plans are addressed, ensuring your townhome is precisely as you envisioned.

Remember, while the process might seem complex, it's a journey towards owning a piece of Mooney's Bay—a worthwhile investment in a community that promises a quality lifestyle.
