The Process

Six Steps to Sold

01

Strategic Pricing

Pricing wins or loses the sale. I build a data-driven comparative market analysis on your home and your block, not a guess, so we list at the number that attracts the most buyers and the strongest offers.

02

Prepare & Stage

Decluttering, repairs, and professional staging guidance that make buyers fall in love the moment they walk in. Small, targeted investments routinely return many times their cost.

03

Professional Marketing

Magazine-quality photography, video, floor plans, and a targeted digital campaign that puts your listing in front of qualified Ottawa buyers, not just whoever happens to drive by.

04

Showings & Open Houses

Coordinated private showings and high-impact open houses, with feedback gathered after every visit so we can adjust strategy in real time.

05

Offers & Negotiation

When offers arrive, I negotiate assertively on price, conditions, and closing terms, protecting your bottom line at every clause of the Agreement of Purchase and Sale.

06

Close With Confidence

I coordinate with lawyers, lenders, and the buyer's agent so your closing is smooth and on time, and I'm still one call away after the sold sign goes up.

Common Questions

Seller FAQ

How long does it take to sell a home in Ottawa?

Well-priced, well-prepared homes in Ottawa often sell within 1 to 3 weeks, though it varies by neighbourhood, price point, and season. Strategic pricing and presentation are the biggest levers on time-on-market.

What does it cost to sell my home?

In Ontario the seller pays both agent commissions out of the sale proceeds, plus legal fees and any prep costs. I walk you through a clear net-proceeds estimate up front so there are no surprises at closing.

Should I stage my home before listing?

Almost always, yes. Staged homes photograph better and consistently sell faster and for more. I provide a room-by-room plan and connect you with trusted stagers when it makes sense.

Should I sell or buy first?

It depends on your finances, the market, and your risk tolerance. We'll map out a strategy, including bridge financing options, so you're never caught carrying two homes or scrambling for one.
