The offer and its conditions
Inside the financing condition, the lender orders the appraisal. Buyers read the area's values, the price trend and the lot and building size for the address.
-
Getting ready to sell
Owners getting ready to sell read the owners' guide and the records a buyer's side reads first.

The records to know
OfferDue's tools for this work
Each is sold once, at a flat price that is the same for every business; none is billed monthly. One that is not open to buy yet says so on its page.

What OfferDue does and doesn't do with this business:
- No opinion of value, no estimate and no range: that is your designated work.
- No sold prices of individual homes: the two price records are area-level figures from Statistics Canada.
- No score and no adjustment: the report says what each record shows and where it comes from, nothing more.
- No "appraised" or "verified by" claims: a report describes the public record on the day it was checked, not the home.
- No fee tied to an assignment, in either direction.
- Listing is free and shows in the order businesses were checked: no business pays for a place, a label or an order on any page.
- OfferDue takes no fee for a client who finds a listed business, and pays none to anyone for a client.
- OfferDue's pages say what each record shows and where it comes from: never legal, financial, insurance or inspection advice.
Public-record information, not legal, financial, insurance or inspection advice. A listing on OfferDue is not a recommendation; check licences and references yourself.
