Seller Resources

From preparing your home to closing day, we've put together everything you need to sell with confidence — and save thousands with our 1% listing commission.

Preparing Your Home

A well-prepared home sells faster and for more money. Follow these expert tips to make your property shine.

Declutter & Depersonalize

Remove personal photos, excess furniture, and clutter. Buyers need to envision themselves in the space. Clean closets, countertops, and storage areas — buyers will look everywhere.

Make Strategic Repairs

Fix leaky faucets, squeaky doors, cracked tiles, and peeling paint. These small issues can signal larger problems to buyers. Focus on high-impact, low-cost repairs first.

Deep Clean Everything

Professional cleaning makes a dramatic difference. Pay special attention to kitchens, bathrooms, windows, and flooring. A spotless home photographs beautifully and shows well.

Boost Curb Appeal

First impressions matter. Trim landscaping, power-wash the driveway, paint the front door, and add seasonal plants. The exterior sets the tone for the entire showing.

Consider Professional Staging

Staged homes sell faster and for more money. Professional stagers know how to highlight your home's best features and create an emotional connection with buyers. Available at additional cost.

Optimize Lighting

Replace dim bulbs with bright, warm LEDs. Open all blinds and curtains for showings. Well-lit rooms feel larger, cleaner, and more inviting to prospective buyers.

Understanding Costs

Transparency is a core value. Here's a clear breakdown of what it costs to sell your home — no surprises, no hidden fees.

Listing Commission

You pay a 1% listing commission (+ HST). Real estate commissions are negotiable and not fixed by law or industry. Professional photography, virtual tours, and marketing costs are typically paid upfront and reimbursed to you at closing, as set out in your service agreement.

Cooperating Brokerage Fee

You choose the cooperating brokerage fee offered to the buyer's agent. This is entirely in your control — we'll advise you on competitive rates for your market.

Legal Fees

A real estate lawyer handles title transfer, discharge of mortgage, and closing. Expect $1,000-$2,000 including disbursements.

Mortgage Discharge

If you have an existing mortgage, your lender may charge a discharge or prepayment penalty fee ($200-$500 for standard discharge, potentially more for prepayment penalties).

Adjustments

Property tax and utility adjustments are calculated at closing. If you've prepaid property taxes, you'll receive a credit. Condo fees are also prorated.
