Home Seller's Guide

There are a few questions you should ask every agent that you interview who wants to sell your home.

Your agent should not only be thoroughly knowledgeable with your area, but your type of home as well. Whether it's a condominium

a single family home in an established community, or a luxury home. Each property requires specific marketing and reach in order to maximize their exposure.

- An important question to ask and know, if an agent only sells a small % of the homes that they list, you might need to understand why why that is and if they're the right fit for your needs.

One of the easiest way to verify the volume and service level of your agent is by asking for reviews of their services. With over 100 Calgary real estate reviews on Google our team takes pride in the work we do and truly appreciate the great feedback and insight our clients give us!

While this may be an easy answer for some, the truth is, it's complicated. There are a few different factors to consider when deciding whether you should buy or sell. One of the first things to consider is whether you can hold two homes (your current and a new one) at the same time. While we can certainly provide advice on how to sell your home fast, some properties simply take longer than others to sell on average, this could be because there are limited buyers for it and ultimately our goal is to get you the most amount of money possible in your sale. The other thing to consider is the home you're looking to purchase and how desirable and common it is. If you're looking to buy a typical single family home in one of the newer more densely populated communities, you may not require much time to find the right house in your search. Ultimately this decision should be made with your agent, utilize the latest market data specific to your home to have an educated understanding of what your home should sell for and roughly how long it will take, along with the same information for homes you're thinking about buying.

This typically will depend on the type of property that you're selling and a few other points. Condominium owners will need to provide the latest condominium documents,

There are a few ways to do this, first things first you can utilize our quick home value estimator to obtain an instant price for your home, while we do love this tool and believe it to be pretty accurate most of the time, it's not perfect, and we always recommend you book a free home evaluation so one of our talented agents can run a thorough market analysis

1. Do you have any suggestions to maximize the value in my sale (i.e. minor / major repairs, cleaning, staging, painting, etc.)?
2. What are my total costs for selling a home?
3. How many transactions do you have in a year?
4. What does your marketing plan entail?
5. Do you have a real estate Youtube channel ?
6. What separates you from other REALTORS® in Calgary that could sell my home?
7. When is the best time to list my home for sale?

No. The price you decide to list and sell your home for is entirely up to you. An agent should be providing you with a CMA Comparative Market Analysis and demonstrating to you where they believe your home should be priced based on recent and past sales of comparable homes. Take into consideration and discuss various strategies your agent may employ and if you're unable to gain traction on your listing how future price reductions would look.

We definitely don't recommend this! While we're beyond confident in our ability to help buyers and sellers every year to achieve their real estate goals, it's important clients truly understand the value in our services, we always recommend interviewing with multiple agents so you can best determine who will serve you and your specific needs best.
