10 Steps to Selling Like a Pro


Selling your home can be very emotional and at times a very intensive process.  When you are ready to sell, make sure you are informed.  Being informed can save you precious time and money.  Below, you will find a list of topics that you should be aware of when selling your home.  Be sure to take a read and send us a quick message if you have any further questions.





STEP 1

THE TALK


Just like buying, there are many factors involved with deciding to sell.  We’ll sit down with you and go through the reasons and motivation for you to sell.  To start you off, here are some pointers:


  • Why do you want to sell?
  • Is it the right time?
  • Is it a seller’s market?
  • Need to sell now or can you wait?
  • How flexible are you, in terms of when to sell?
  • Is your house ready to be sold as is?

STEP 2

THE DECISION

​​

After our meeting, you should have all the information you need to help you decide on what you want to do next.


  • Sleep on it, and think about what you’d like to do
  • Make the right decision
  • Weigh out the pros and cons

STEP 3

THE EVALUATION

​

We will help you determine the value of your home using current market data and in-depth analysis.


  • How much is your home worth in the current market?
  • Get an appraisal
  • Comparative Market Analysis
  • Will you be doing any renovation work prior to selling?
  • This can positively impact the value of your home.

STEP 4

THE FIXER UPPER​​

​

Everyone has their own reasoning for wanting to sell, but the one factor that’s the same across the board is wanting to get as much as you can for your home.


  • Do you want to do renovations to make it more appealing?
  • Picking renovations based on return on investment
  • Do you need to enhance your curb appeal?
  • Have you had a home inspection done?

  • Keep your receipts and record any repairs done​

STEP 5

THE STRATEGY

​​

Now you’ve decided to sell, you got a market evaluation done and your home meets curb appeal – let’s crunch some numbers. As your agents, we’ll help you with:


  • A plan of action for selling your home
  • Determining an effective listing price and strategy
  • Personalized marketing plan

STEP 6

THE LISTING


This is more than just sticking a sign on your lawn and putting a listing up on MLS.


  • Our digital marketing strategies include listing on MLS, a custom website & more.
  • Put up lawn signs & design quality feature sheets.
  • Marketing your home using traditional and innovative methods such as Social Media
    (Twitter, Facebook, etc.)

STEP 7

THE STAGING​​

​

Want to leave a lasting impression?  It’s as simple as creating a “live-in” feeling for the buyer.  The key is to have a potential buyer walk in to your home and they can already see themselves living there.


  • Staging your home: Putting the 3-D effect in action  — Declutter, Depersonalize, and Decorate
  • Prepping an Open House – a successful open house is bound to generate quick interest in your home

STEP 8

THE OFFER​​

​

Leave all the fine print to us — you have enough on your plate.  We’ll help you review an Offer to purchase and discuss all the details:


  • Receiving offers
  • Counter offering
  • Generating multiple offers
  • Negotiating deals

STEP 9

THE CLOSING

​

Knowing what to expect will bring you peace of mind.  It’s basically pay-day for the selling but there are still a few remaining things that you need to do:


  • Hiring a Lawyer — there’s a lot of money on the line and a mountain of paperwork.  You want to make sure you hire the right professional to take care of all the complex legal work
  • Closing costs
  • Discharge of Mortgage

STEP 10

THE MOVE


Although you might be leaving a home where you built a lot of memories, you are about to start a new adventure.  Here are some tips to get you started:


  • Updating your address
  • Transferring and/or cancelling utilities and services
  • Canada Post Mail Forwarding
  • Donate unwanted items to charity
  • Have a yard sale
  • Packing supplies
  • Call the movers

My husband and I could not be happier with the outcome of the sale of our starter home and the purchase of our forever dream home. We owe our gratitude to Navi, Majury and Rohit for their knowledge and expertise in guiding us through this process. What we loved the most about Bespoke Real Estate Team is that it is true to its name; the experience was painless, and customized to our every need and with 2 young children and the complexities around COVID-19, this was much appreciated. Navi is extremely savvy, and has strong negotiation skills getting us the best price for both the sale and purchase transactions. Majury is patient and was very tuned into our needs for a new home, making the search enjoyable and exciting, and Rohit was meticulous, responsive and reliable at all times. We will absolutely continue to work with Bespoke for all our future needs and highly recommend them to anyone!

We worked with Theepan on our recent purchase and time and time again, Theepan proves to be not only professional, but as someone who always looks out for his clients. This is not our first purchase with Theepan and no matter what we're out to buy, it's always such an immense pleasure working with him. We were looking at properties during peak Covid during March and April, and Theepan never failed to give us as much of the viewing experience as possible under the restrictions at the time. Theepan is so full of knowledge and always puts you at ease when you speak to him. We look forward to many more purchases with Theepan, and can't wait to see what the future has in store! Thank you very much for all that you do!

Maj and Navi have been so helpful in the process to find a home. Maj made the process so much smoother and it was comforting to know I could contact her at any time with my questions. She was very honest and welcoming. If you're looking to buy or lease a home, definitely reach out to them! You won't be disappointed.

Theepan was our realtor for both the sale and purchase of our homes and we had the best experience working with him. He was very patient and knowledgeable about the selling and buying processes and made us feel confident about the huge decisions we made. When it came to selling our parents’ home, Theepan was very hands on during renovations and selected all the amazing finishes. As first-time home buyers for our new home, Theepan made the process very comfortable and ensured we found a house that met all our needs. Our family can’t thank Theepan enough for his dedication and great spirit during this process.

I had the pleasure of working with Amelin in the sale of our home. She was an absolute delight to work with. Amelin was involved from the very beginning. She guided us in ensuring we made the right renovations that would give us optimal value, found us great contractors for the work and made sure the house was on the market in the timeline we wanted. Amelin’s work ethic along with the Bespoke Team’s impeccable marketing strategy got our home sold for $400, 000 over asking in such a short amount of time!! We couldn’t be more happier!

I would definitely recommend Amelin to anyone whose looking for a hard working, honest and reliable realtor! With her humorous and humble personality you will enjoy working with her. She’ll become a trusted friend, which she is to us now.

Theepan was our realtor for the sale of our home recently. He was extremely knowledgeable, always professional, detail-oriented, tenacious, and intuitively customer focused. He was an absolute pleasure to work with! I highly recommend him and his team to anyone who needs an experienced realtor whom they can trust. As our family grows, we look forward to working with Theepan again in the future.
