How it works
- Tell Lennox the area, type of home, bedrooms and top price you have in mind.
- When a home that fits comes up, Lennox sends it to you.
- Change what you're looking for, or stop the emails, at any time.
Before you start touring
- Get pre-approved. Sellers take an offer more seriously when your financing is lined up. See what you can afford.
- Budget for closing. Land transfer tax, legal fees and moving costs come on top of the down payment.
- Check the address. Zoning, heritage and tree rules can matter if you plan to renovate. Check an address.
