Choosing a Builder
Do I need my own REALTOR® when buying from a builder?
Yes — and it costs you nothing. The builder pays the commission. The sales representative at the builder's sales centre works for the builder, not you. Having your own REALTOR® ensures your interests are represented in contract review, upgrade negotiations, and closing protections.
How do I compare builders in Ottawa?
Look at three things: build quality (visit completed homes, not just models), after-sales service (ask existing homeowners about warranty claims), and financial stability (Tarion registration history). Your REALTOR® can share first-hand experience with each builder's track record.
What is Tarion warranty and how does it protect me?
Tarion is Ontario's mandatory new home warranty program. Every new home comes with deposit protection, 1-year defects coverage, 2-year water penetration coverage, and 7-year major structural coverage. Builders must be registered with Tarion before they can sell new homes.
