With a pre-approval and an agent in place, the next step is narrowing your criteria: neighbourhood, size, condition tolerance and whether a permitted secondary suite or finished basement matters to you, since a lawyer with the Law Society of Saskatchewan will need that clarity too once an offer is written, typically with legal fees of $800 to $1,500.
Once you find a home, an offer in Saskatchewan typically includes financing and inspection conditions, and a lawyer handles the legal side of closing through Information Services Corporation, adjusting property taxes and finalizing title on possession day.
Doing the steps in that order, financing first, then agent, then search, avoids the common mistake of falling for a home before knowing whether you can actually afford it.
