Step 1 · Before Listing

Price It Right

  • Good pricing comes from real nearby sales in your neighbourhood, not online guesses.
  • Check how long homes are taking to sell in your town. Days on market differ a lot across Central Alberta.

RPR & Compliance

A survey of your lot plus a stamp from the town confirming everything meets bylaws.

Dower Consent

If your spouse isn't on title but lives in the home, they may need to sign off on the sale under Alberta's Dower Act.

Conditions

The things the buyer needs to check, like financing or an inspection, before the deal goes firm.

Adjustments

Small credits between you and the buyer for prepaid taxes or utilities.

Holdback

Money held back at closing until a small item is fixed, like a missing compliance stamp.
