Practical framework

What to understand before you move

Every property and agreement is different. These steps help you ask better questions and organize the right professional advice.

Define the intended use

Clarify the operating, investment or development goal before evaluating zoning, access, servicing, building characteristics or agricultural capability.

Verify planning and zoning

Ask the municipality and appropriate professionals about current permissions, official-plan context, conservation restrictions and any required approvals.

Study the property systems

Review servicing, power, loading, access, structures, leases, environmental history, taxes and other property-specific operating factors.

Build the right advisory team

Use independent legal, planning, engineering, environmental, tax and financing advice appropriate to the asset and intended use.
