Greetings,
You are ready to sell your property. And, while you are looking forward to seeing the word “SOLD” posted from the curb, you know there is a lot to consider along the way. One of your first decisions is to select a real estate agent who will join you in the process.
You deserve so much more than a sign in the yard, flyers in a box and an occasional open house. You deserve an agent who will be at your side, from listing to closing, ensuring that your property sells smoothly and you get the most money possible from the sale.
My local real estate market expertise means I am able to interpret all data that dictates the optimum pricing strategy, so your property will be priced to sell for maximum profit. I will apply my experience, expertise and strong negotiating skills to effectively showcase the unique selling points of your property and neighbourhood. My marketing plans will effectively target and attract potential buyers. Its my formula for success.
And, of course, I will take the time to listen to you, to understand your challenges and goals, and to answer any questions you may have along the way.
In the meantime, I hope that you will take the time to review the attached information before our appointment so that I can get your property listed right away and get you on the move!
I appreciate the opportunity to earn your business and look forward to meeting with you!

It can feel like the details are endless when you’re selling a property. It is my job to streamline the process for you, ensuring everything is completed as quickly and efficiently as possible. Here’s an overview of the steps I will be taking along the way.
Communication makes all the difference.
You’ll always know what’s going on behind the scenes while your property is listed. I will solicit feedback from each consumer and agent who views your property, passing their comments on to you.
We will work together to formulate a price adjustment strategy that sees us through your listing period. You’ll receive regular progress reports, delivered as frequently as you request. Whether you prefer a phone call or an email, that’s what you’ll get.
Prepare your home for a successful sale.
More and more sellers today are seeing the value of investing in a pre-inspection on the property they are preparing to list. Whether or not you are confident in the condition of the home, an inspection can either give us professional, third-party validation, or reveal issues you should attend to before listing your property-issues a buyer inspection could surface later, making them part of the final price negotiation.
I will evaluate the current state of your property and recommend any repairs or improvements needed to maximize your home’s value and appeal.

the hOMe sellinG PROCess: GettinG ReaDY tO list
Let’s begin with this direct statement:
i am not the one who decides how much your home is worth. the market does.
It tells me exactly where to price your property to sell and how to approach the marketing of it. Here are the factors that will affect the value in today’s market:
PricePricing your home properly from the start is the deciding factor on how long it will take to sell it.
locationLocation is the single most important factor in determining the value of your property.
ConditionThe condition of the property affects the price and the speed of the sale. As prospective buyers often make purchases based on emotion, first impressions are important. We’ll be able to help in optimizing the physical appearance of your home to maximize the buyer’s perception of value.
CompetitionProspective buyers are going to compare your property – both the condition and the price – to other listings in and around your neighbourhood. Those buyers will determine value based on properties that are listed or have recently sold in the area.
timingProperty values are affected by the current real estate market. Because we can’t manipulate the market, we’ll collaborate on a pricing and marketing strategy that will take advantage of the first 30 days your property is listed. It’s the window of opportunity when buyers and their agents discover your property and are most likely to visit and make offers.
