What is the final walkthrough and when does it happen?

A final walkthrough is the buyer's last visit to a Saskatoon home, almost always in the 24 to 48 hours right before possession, to confirm the property is in the same condition it was in when the offer was accepted and that any repairs promised in the conditions were actually completed.

It is separate from the lawyer's work at Information Services Corporation registering title, which happens on possession day itself, so the walkthrough is a physical check of the house, done in person, not a legal step in the file.

Timing matters: too early and a last-minute move-out mess or a late repair will not be finished yet, too late and there is no time left to resolve a problem before possession, which is why most Saskatoon offers schedule it close to, but still before, the possession date itself.

Joel Dyck coordinates the exact timing with the seller's agent so nothing gets rushed. Get your hand-reviewed valuation from Joel Dyck.
