CPBH Full Day Seminar on “Essentials for Purchasing a Newly Built Home”

24-Point Star: Approved by the Registered Insurance Brokers of Ontario (RIBO) for training credits.

CPBH continues to offer our popular seminar, which includes these key topics:

  • Selecting a builder: Not all builders are equal.  Purchasers should make the selection of their builder a key part of their purchase decision criteria;
  • Before you sign the agreement of purchase and sale: Hear about what legal clauses should be avoided, and what ones should be included from a consumer protection perspective;
  • The role of the municipality: Understand the municipality’s role - and its limitations;
  • The role of the private home inspector:  CPBH recommends that all new homes be inspected by qualified, private home inspector before the owner takes possession; and
  • Claims to the warranty program – Home warranty information from a lawyer’s perspective.  Hear about what is and isn’t covered by your warranty program.

The following is feedback received from previous seminar participants:

“I wish this seminar was available when I was looking for a new home –
would have saved me some research time.”

“Thank you for organizing this seminar.  We need
more voices to protect home buyers.”

“Overall – great info.  I saw lots of problems areas and
no-one to help consumers except lawyers….big$$$.”

“Thank you – much of this was important information
 you won’t hear in any other seminar.”
