LAUDERDALE: NORTH EDMONTON

A HOMEBUYER’S GUIDE

Are you looking for a home on the north side of Edmonton? Lauderdale may be an area you want to explore. Before you choose a home, look at the life around it too: your daily trips, schools, parks, nearby facilities and the condition of the property.

I’m Christy Tien Le, REALTOR® with eXp Realty. I live on the north side of Edmonton and specialize in helping buyers explore North Edmonton. I can guide you in English or Vietnamese. This article helps you get to know Lauderdale one step at a time.

1. WHERE IS LAUDERDALE?

According to the City of Edmonton’s neighbourhood profile, Lauderdale is north of the Yellowhead corridor and west of 97 Street. It is an established residential area. A school and park site sit near the centre of the neighbourhood.

A map tells you where an area is. It cannot tell you how your daily trip will feel. If you like a home, try travelling from that exact address to work, school and the places you visit often. Try your usual travel time.

2. WHAT TYPES OF HOMES ARE IN LAUDERDALE?

The City’s profile describes detached houses, semi-detached homes, row houses and apartments in Lauderdale. This gives you a starting point. Homes for sale change from day to day, and each property has its own layout and condition.

When you compare homes, look at:

• The number of bedrooms and bathrooms.
• Parking for your household.
• The roof, windows and heating system.
• Any signs of moisture in the basement.
• Work the home may need after you move in.

4. STEPS TO BUYING A HOME IN LAUDERDALE

STEP 01 — SET YOUR BUDGET

Speak with a lender or mortgage professional to learn what you may qualify to borrow. Plan for your down payment, closing costs and possible repairs. The most you can borrow may be more than you want to spend.

STEP 02 — LIST WHAT YOUR HOUSEHOLD NEEDS

Pick your three most important needs. They might be bedrooms, travel time and parking. A short list helps you compare homes that fit your life.

STEP 03 — SEE THE HOME AND THE STREET

At a showing, look at the roof, windows, basement, yard and parking. Then walk around the area. If you can, visit again at another time to check traffic and noise.

STEP 04 — CHECK DETAILS BEFORE YOU COMMIT

Talk with your REALTOR® about the offer price, deadlines and suitable conditions, such as financing or a home inspection. A home inspector, lender and lawyer can explain the parts of the purchase within their areas of work.

5. COMMON QUESTIONS

DOES LAUDERDALE ONLY HAVE DETACHED HOUSES?

No. The City’s profile describes detached, semi-detached and row homes, as well as apartments. Check current listings to see what is for sale now.

DOES BUYING HERE GUARANTEE A PLACE AT LAUDERDALE SCHOOL?

Do not assume it does. Ask the school about its attendance area and admission for the property address and the relevant school year.
