  Spring has sprung, and so have the 'for sale' signs in many Edmonton neighbourhoods. The following are tips for differentiating your listing to sell your home quickly, so you can move out and move on with plenty of time to enjoy the best of summer.

Edmonton Real Estate Market Update:

If you have ever thought of selling your home "For Sale By Owner", have you thought about what type of home buyer is would show interest in  your home. A Serious home buyer would not purchase for sale by owner when they can get the services of a Realtor and his or her Brokerage to help in the purchase process at no costs to the buyer at all, and all the benefits of being legally covered in case there is an issue with the property ( where as if the home owner is not under contract with a Brokerage they do not have to disclose any hidden defects ). There are professional home buyers that do prey on For Sale By Owners for one of many reasons - to try to low ball the home owner and to save commissions!

Edmonton Home Seller Advise:

It is extremely important to price your home according to current market conditions. Because the Real Estate Market is continually changing, and market fluctuations have an effect on property values, it's imperative to select your price based on the most recent comparable sales in your neighbourhood. A so-called comparative market analysis provides the background data upon which to base your list-price decision.

When you prepare to sell and are interviewing Real Estate Agents, study each agents comparable sales report (the data should be no more than 12 months old). If all agents agree on a price range for your home, go with the consensus. Watch out for an agent whose opinion of value is considerably higher than others.
