Information for Sellers
Getting the most for your home or property means doing more than putting a "For Sale" sign out front. In a competitive market where new homes for sale are added daily, your listing needs to be seen in a variety of places in order to stand out. And sometimes the right buyer is waiting out of province, or even in another country.

CMA (MARKET EVALUATION): We do a full search of comparable homes in your area, paying particular attention to the properties that have sold as that in indicative of the market value of those properties. At times we will come across properties that are good comparables because of size,age, location, upgrades etc. When we use properties like that we have to do "ADJUSTMENTS" which means we have to bring those properties "UP" to a comparable level to your home or we have to bring them"DOWN" to the level of your home. For example: your property has a double car garage but a good comparable property has a triple car garage. We subtract the value of the 3rd parking stall from the asking or selling price to make it comparable to your property.Once the decision has been made to list your property we complete all the listing documents, book our professional photographer, add pictures to listing, install lockbox, order signage, create highlight sheets, order and have installed For Sale sign, Send listing up to Realtor Association of Edmonton, when an offer has been accepted, we take care of all the paperwork, If there are conditions we make sure that they get removed on time, we submit all the documents of the sale to your lawyer. On Condition day we wait for instruction from your lawyer indicating that we can complete key release to the new owner.
Negotiate with the help of real estate professionals.
As your Realtors, we have put together a custom marketing plan with an effective price. A well-priced home will often generate competing offers and drive up the final sale value. Our market analysis takes into account the most actively searched prices, and home values throughout your area, including expired listings, and properties still on the market. In marketing your home, we also develop a listing that emphasizes its unique and sellable aspects. We then put your home in front of thousands of buyers, establishing it on the local MLS® as well as broader ones, new listings sheets, and Realtor® publications. Our network of professional real estate contacts and buyers throughout the nation will also have the opportunity to check out your listing. In addition, we'll use the Internet, and this professionally optimized website, to make your listing highly visible. With more than 80 per cent of buyers checking the web first when looking for a home, that's a part of your marketing strategy you can't afford to miss.
Without the help of a Realtor®, marketing your home can be time consuming and difficult. Advertising in the media is often expensive, and many buyers are reluctant to consider homes listed "For Sale by Owner."
When we list your home, we do so at no additional cost. When you start to get offers, we will represent you during the emotionally charged negotiating process and ensure you get the best price, with favorable closing terms that are clearly spelled out.
For most of us, our home is our biggest investment. When it's time to sell, get the value you deserve with the help of professional Realtors®.
