Before starting the deal preparation, learn some important nuances about the real estate market in Canada. As I have already mentioned, on average, people in Montreal prefer to upgrade their living conditions every 5-7 years.
Why do residents of Canada often sell their housing?
From my experience, I know and can highlight several main reasons for selling real estate in Canada:
All the above reasons require special investigation, and each case with sellers needs to be analyzed. The process is not that simple and straightforward. The realtor's task is to choose and use the most advantageous strategy for the transaction. The goals are to ensure that the deal takes place on favourable terms for the seller (set optimal property transfer times, choose the key handover date, etc.) and that the seller ultimately receives the maximum amount from the sale of the house or apartment.
Once the seller expresses their preferences, and we determine the transaction strategy, the next step is to conclude an exclusive contract for the sale of real estate. When an exclusive sales contract is signed, the property becomes available to all potential buyers and realtors from all real estate agencies.
In addition, I will provide additional advertising through my social networks. My task is to make sure that the biggest possible number of potential buyers learns about our property for sale.

The exclusive contract is a contract between a realtor and a seller under which the realtor has the exclusive right to sell the seller's property on the market.
