Why work with a broker?

Selling a property can sometimes be a stressful experience.

If you are like most of our clients, you live in the 2000s at “100,000 per hour”. Your time is limited between work, children and other activities. That’s why surrounding yourself with a good, professional and responsive broker often makes all the difference in the world when selling.

It is important to do some research before choosing a broker to find the one that best suits your needs. Start your research by visiting the broker’s file on the OACIQ website. You will find his complete professional file; information such as the validity of his license. Remember to look at his website, and also the reviews and comments on Google. This will give you a good idea of the person’s work.

Finally, let your instincts speak for themselves. If you have good intuition, it’s a sign of a winning partnership!

What is a broker’s commission rate?

After a brief search, you identify a few real estate brokerage service offers and wonder how much commission you should pay to obtain a quality service. When selling a property, the main objective is to get the best selling price in the best time frame, that is, as quickly as possible.

Traditionally, when selling a property, you pay a percentage that can vary depending on the service offered, and this only once the house is sold. Therefore, it is essential, before choosing a broker, to ask him for his marketing plan in writing, in order to properly evaluate your investment. This way, some offers may seem much less expensive than the average. If the broker does not market the property in a quality and well-organized manner, if he or she is not present during the visits or if his or her experience and negotiation skills are limited, this decision could cost you dearly, even if the commission percentage is reduced.

The importance of a comprehensive marketing plan

Make sure you get the best value for your money by hiring a broker who can demonstrate his experience and skills by presenting you with a comprehensive and forward-thinking marketing plan as well as a program of guarantees and insurance to which you are entitled. A good broker has the necessary skills to maximize the sale price of your property during negotiations with the other party. If necessary, he will be able to orchestrate a multiple offer situation to your advantage, in compliance with the brokerage rules, with the collaborating agents.

Choosing a real estate broker is an important decision that will have an impact on your entire transaction. It is essential to do business with someone you can trust, who will offer you a high quality service and who will protect your interests while seeking the best sale price for you… so choose wisely!
