A verified professional will get in touch.

Using a full-service agent, a flat-fee or discount brokerage, selling it yourself and taking a cash offer trade off price, speed and effort differently. You hear how each works.
What you walk away with depends on commission, repairs, legal costs and any mortgage penalty. You hear what to ask about before you sign.
You can ask questions and compare, and nobody pushes you to sign with an agent on the spot.
The main ones are using a full-service real estate agent, using a flat-fee or discount brokerage, selling it yourself, selling to a cash buyer or investor, and in some places an auction. They differ in price, speed, effort and cost, and the right one depends on your home and your timeline.
Usually they help set a listing price, market the home on the MLS and online, arrange showings, negotiate offers and keep the sale moving through to closing. Ask each agent exactly what they will do and what they will leave to you.
Most charge a commission, usually a percentage of the sale price plus tax, paid when the sale closes, and often split with the buyer's agent. Commission is negotiable. Ask each agent for the total in writing, including taxes and any marketing costs.
It gives one brokerage the right to market your home for an agreed period, and you usually owe a commission even if you find the buyer. Check how long you are tied in, what happens if you want to leave early, and what happens to buyers introduced during the agreement after it ends.
Agents usually compare recent sales of similar homes nearby. Be careful with an agent who names a very high number just to win the listing. Ask them to show the sales behind their figure. Some people list with offers held back to a set date, which can affect how the price develops.
Your title and property documents, details of any mortgage, and the property tax and utility bills. Many sellers also arrange a pre-listing inspection or fix repairs. A real estate lawyer, or a notary in Quebec, handles the legal side of the sale.
Once a buyer and seller agree on an agreement of purchase and sale, the buyer pays a deposit, any conditions such as financing and inspection are satisfied, and the sale closes on an agreed date. The rules differ by province, so ask your agent and your lawyer how it works where you live.
These can include agent commission and taxes, legal fees, any mortgage prepayment penalty, repairs you agree to make, staging and photography, adjustments on closing and moving costs. Ask each professional for an estimate of what you would receive after costs.
If it is your principal residence, you usually don't pay tax on the gain, but you must report the sale on your tax return and there are exceptions, for example if you rented it out or owned it for a short time. Namoye can't advise on tax. Ask an accountant about your situation.
How long it lasts, what happens if you want to end it early, the commission and when it's due, what marketing you pay for, and what happens if the home sells to someone you already know. Read it fully before you sign.
Your address or postal code, the type and condition of the home, whether there is a mortgage, and when you want to sell. If you don't have everything, send the request anyway.
