The price you set and the prep you do in the weeks before listing matter more than anything that happens after. I'll help you get both right, then keep you informed through to closing.
This is a personal pricing review, not a website widget. You'll get a realistic range for your home, plus my read on what's worth doing before you list.
Based on recent comparable sales, current competition, and your home's condition.
What to fix, clean, paint, light, declutter, or skip before spending money.
What would happen next if you decided to list, including timing, marketing, and communication.
Price it right, prep what matters, and stay informed from launch to closing.
We set your price from recent comparable sales and current conditions, not from what the neighbours got two years ago.
Staging advice, decluttering, lighting, cleaning, and paint where it counts. I'll tell you what's worth doing, and what to skip.
Professional photos and a strong first week, and then I stay close to the phones. You'll hear the showing feedback as it comes in, and if the response is soft we decide together what to change.
You do not need to figure out every prep decision on your own. Before we list, I help you decide what is worth doing, what to skip, and who needs to be involved so the home shows well without wasting money.
Recent comparable sales, active competition, and a realistic value range before you choose a list price.
A clear plan for furniture, layout, flow, and buyer first impressions.
The practical fixes buyers notice quickly, without defaulting to expensive renovations.
Getting the home photo-ready so the online listing makes a strong first impression.
For homes where it helps reduce buyer uncertainty or prevent surprises later.
Updates on showings, buyer feedback, market response, and next steps after launch.
Sarah's Tanglewood townhouse got a full prep plan before it ever hit MLS: staging she followed closely, decluttering, better lighting, professional cleaning, and fresh paint, with the price set from comparable sales. The offer arrived thirty-six hours after launch.

Sellers tend to spend money where it shows least. Here's how the factors rank.
"The biggest mistake sellers make is pricing based on what they need instead of what the market supports. My job is to give you an honest number and a strategy to get the most out of it."— Karim Ali, Ottawa REALTOR®

Usually not. Paint, lighting, cleaning, decluttering, and small repairs often matter more than major renovations. See what to fix and skip →
Your net is the sale price minus mortgage payout, commission, legal fees, and adjustments. I can help you estimate that before you list.
Then sequencing matters. We map the sale, purchase, financing, and closing dates before you commit to either side.
It depends on pricing, presentation, neighbourhood, and current inventory. I will give you a realistic timeline for your area.
No. You can accept, counter, reject, or wait. I will explain the price, terms, conditions, and tradeoffs clearly.
If you're not ready for a pricing review yet, start with the checklist. It covers the prep decisions that pay for themselves, the ones that don't, and the pricing mistakes that leave homes sitting.
You'll get a personal pricing review built from comparable sales, along with prep recommendations and what your next step would be. I'll follow up within 24 hours, and there's no commitment attached.
