How to Get the Most Out of Your Search

Start broad, then narrow: begin with your price range and the areas you are open to, then add filters like bedrooms, parking or home type once you see what is available.

Use the map: draw an area on the map to see every listing inside it. It is handy when the area you want does not match a neighbourhood boundary.

Save your search: create a free account and save your search to get an email when a new home matches, so you see it as soon as it is listed.

Look at sold prices too: asking prices do not always tell you what a home will sell for. I can pull recent sales of similar homes so you know what to offer.

What Is the MLS® System?

The MLS® System is the database REALTORS® use to share information about homes for sale, so buyers’ agents can find and show them. Its roots go back to real estate boards in the late 1800s, when brokers met to share listings and help each other sell. In Canada, the MLS® name belongs to the Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA), and local systems are run by real estate boards. In Waterloo Region, that is the Cornerstone Association of REALTORS®.

REALTOR.ca, run by CREA, is the public website that shows most MLS® listings to consumers. The search on this page draws on the same local listings, with tools to save searches and get alerts.

Be Ready When the Right Home Comes Up

Get pre-approved before you start touring, so you know your budget and can act quickly. Browse by neighbourhood or school district to narrow your search, and check the newest listings often.

Home Search FAQs

Answers to the questions buyers ask most about searching for homes online.

Where do the listings in this search come from?

They come from the MLS® System, which REALTORS® use to list homes for sale. In Waterloo Region, the local MLS® System is run by the Cornerstone Association of REALTORS®, and almost every home listed by a REALTOR® appears on it.

How do I get alerts for new listings?

Set your filters, such as area, price, bedrooms and home type, then save the search with a free account. You will get an email when a new home matches. I can also set up a custom search for you and flag homes worth seeing.

Can I search by neighbourhood or school?

Yes. You can draw an area on the map, or browse our neighbourhood pages and school district directory, each of which shows current listings in that area.

What is the difference between the MLS® System and REALTOR.ca?

The MLS® System is the database REALTORS® use to share listings with each other. REALTOR.ca is the public website run by the Canadian Real Estate Association that shows most of those listings to consumers. Our search draws on the same local listings.

Why does a home show as sold or conditional?

A conditional sale means the buyer and seller have agreed to terms, but conditions like financing or an inspection still need to be met. If a home you like is conditional, ask me, since some conditional sales fall through.

Should I get pre-approved before I start searching?

Yes. A pre-approval tells you your budget, holds a rate for a set time and shows sellers you are serious, so you can act quickly when the right home comes up.

Can you help me with my search?

Yes. I can set up a custom search, send you homes that match what you are looking for, book showings quickly and help you make a strong offer. Book a consultation to get started.
