ALL ABOUT SELLING

    Send for our full Selling information package or individual information sheets.

FIRST STEPS:

1. Prepare your property for sale : Our Helpful Hints  advises on how this can be done and will give you some good ideas for displaying your property to perfection.

First impressions are the most lasting impressions. Good curb appeal is vital, along with a sparkling, welcoming  front entrance.

2. Have a current market analysis prepared by a knowledgeable Realtor in your area, to establish fair market value. This will be based on current listings and recent sales, and will vary with the time of year and the vagaries of the market. 

MARKETING:

In order to obtain the best price, your property needs to be exposed to the largest number of potential purchasers possible. Work with a  Realtor who will provide extensive marketing:

• Advertise in local newspapers and real estate magazines.
  
  
• Feature your property with extra photos and text on several Internet sites.
  
  
• Reach out with flyers, faxes and open houses
  
  
  

SELLING:

1. Leave enough time

Allow a good four months from start to moving day. The average time to sell a property is about two months, but varies enormously depending on area and time of year. You will need a minimum of 2 weeks from offer to closing, usually more.

2. Working with a Realtor

It is important to read and understand the  Working with a Realtor sheet provided by the Real Estate Board. Most buyers work under contract with their Realtor, so this Realtor is working for them and provides only customer service to the Vendor.

3. The Offer

Read and become familiar with the  Offer Form ahead of time. Our job is to represent you at the offer presentation and help you make a good sale. We can also recommend reliable inspectors, lawyers, moving companies, etc. (See Auxiliary Service) and we will keep in touch until closing to make sure everything progresses smoothly for you.
