Bolton is located in the Region of Peel, approximately 50 kms north-west of Toronto, in Ontario, Canada. Bolton has a population of 26,478. Bolton is a subdued town, that has many defining features, such as its small town charm, or the flowing Humber River that travels through the downtown. The downtown of Bolton has been revived since the late 1990's, and has become a bustling part of the community. The town, formally known as Bolton's Mill, was founded in 1794 when James Bolton helped build a flour mill. The urban area did not expand until the late 1970's and early 1980's, which also led to development of an industrial area in the southwest. The urban area up to Columbia Way began booming in the late 1980's. In regional documents, Bolton is referred to as a 'Rural Service Centre'. It has a population of 26,478 residents in 8,721 households. 

Timing can sometimes be difficult if you have to sell a home before you can buy another one. Most people need the equity from the sale of their first home for the down payment on the new house. If your present home goes on the market first, you may be concerned that it will sell before you find the one you want to buy. On the other hand, if you find the perfect home before your present home is under contract, the sellers may be reluctant to accept your offer, and you may be too nervous to sign a contract.

It is a good idea to sit down with a good real estate agent for some professional advice before you begin your search. It will probably be necessary to be flexible on the closing date, because it can be easier to find a home that you want to buy than to sell your present home. After finding the house you want, you can ask the lender about arranging a short-term bridge loan that can make the purchase possible before you sell your current residence.
