Close and start your next chapter
Ownership transfers, you sign the final paperwork and receive the proceeds from the sale. I stay available for referrals and questions afterward.

Get your home market-ready

A little work before listing often pays off at the negotiating table.

Declutter and clean

Clear counters and closets and deep clean. Rooms look larger and buyers can picture themselves living there.

Repair the small things

Fix leaky taps, loose handles, chipped paint and burnt-out bulbs so buyers do not wonder what else needs work.

Boost curb appeal

Tidy the yard, clear walkways and freshen the front door. Buyers form an opinion before they step inside.

Stage for photos

Bright, neutral and uncluttered rooms photograph best, and most buyers see your home online first.

Questions sellers ask

Quick answers. I am happy to go deeper on a call.

How do you decide my asking price?

I analyze recent sales of comparable Ottawa homes along with current competing listings, then factor in your home's condition, location and your timeline.

Should I renovate before I sell?

Usually not big projects. Cleaning, decluttering, paint touch-ups and small repairs tend to give the best return. I will tell you what is worth doing in your home.

How long will it take to sell?

It depends on price, condition and the market. After an accepted offer, closing is commonly 30–60 days, and you can often choose a date that fits your move.

What happens if I need to buy and sell at the same time?

We plan the timing together so your closing dates line up as closely as possible. I can also connect you with mortgage professionals about options such as a bridge loan.

What do I need to have ready to list?

Keys, a list of recent upgrades with dates, utility costs, and your property tax details. For condos, I will also help you request the documents needed for buyers.
