You Need the RIGHT Listing Price

Selling or Buying – House Prices Shouldn’t Be A Guesstimate

MLS Canada Flat Fee or For Sale by Owner Doesn’t Guarantee a House Sale

The new MLS Canada Flat Fee allows a homeowner to list with MLS Canada and save thousands on commissions.  So does using a For Sale By the Owner website.  If the home is not priced right, potential buyers drift to other properties that are in their budget.  Worse yet, your home will sit on the market indefinitely and cost you every month that it does.  You don’t need to pay the heavy cost of a bad guess of your house value.

Right Market at the Right Price Makes a Smart Buyer

Many of us know when the market is right to make that house purchase, but few of us are certain that we paid the right price.  It becomes too difficult to compare properties, and we don’t understand why some are so much higher or lower than others.  If you knew the details and formulas that prove a home’s market value, you would know what to offer for that home that you are most interested in.

A House Price You Can Trust

Like anything you do, once you learn something, the very best person to do it right is you.  Your home is likely the biggest investment you will make in your lifetime. Providing you are given the tools, you can be confident to make the right decisions. The Home Owners Market Evaluation Report (H.O.M.E.) is a do-it-yourself appraisal method to ensure that you get the RIGHT price.  Once you learn it, you can use it over and over again, to buy and sell homes, or just use it the one time to keep your Realtor honest.

Why There Are No House Listings on This Site?

Our purpose is to provide independent resources, an assist to sell toolbox for the Canadian homeowner that wants to sell or buy a property on their own with confidence and control.

We believe calculating a listing price should involve you, the buyer or the seller.  Here’s why

  • NO ONE HAS AS MUCH TO LOSE AS YOU, the home buyer or the home seller
  • Realtors are motivated 1st to get your listing and 2nd to sell your property
  • Realtors accuracy is irregular. Courses in property appraisal or market valuation are ‘elected’ courses in some Provinces, and not mandatory for a license to sell Real Estate.  Other Provinces skim the surface of property appraisal.  Provincial educational standards vary.
  • Computer generated list prices that calculate home worth by random comparables do not allow for your personal scrutiny like the Home Owners Market Evaluation Report (H.O.M.E.).  Your listing price needs to be specific.  H.O.M.E. shows you how to choose comparables that are of equal value and provides the formulas and adjustments so that you can believe in your listing price.

Success hinges on H.O.M.E.  Home Owner Marketing Evaluationfor Canada’s homeowner.  It starts with your evaluation and ends with a sale.

Is this Only for the Canadian Homeowner?

No, but our formula to date has only been tested throughout Canada. Although the same principals work elsewhere, our suggested dollar adjustments may be different.  Additionally, the Canadian homeowner has other challenges that are not apparent in countries such as the U.S.A.  The available United States databases from both the Multiple Listing Service and For Sale By Owner websites are extensive, and transparent.  They are not in Canada.  Most Canadian Real Estate Agents offer FREE Market Values to prospective full service clients, but charge as much as a professional appraiser if you are using the MLS Canada Flat Fee Service.   Real Estate agents have a Code of Ethics to follow, however, their method of placing a market value on homes is subjective and can be biased.  Our method is completely independent and impartial.  You can use our market evaluation system to arrive at your own listing price, or we can work with you to get the RIGHT price.  Get started right now with H.O.M.E.

Assist to Sell Data Is Specific
In today’s highly competitive for sale by the owner market, there are many things to consider when coming up with house prices and market value for homes in Canada.   But there are only a specific number of criteria that will actually influence house prices in a significant manner.  Some of those criteria are location, age of your home, condition of your home, size and style of your home, size of your lot, and then those many amenities that either add to the market value, or discourage a potential buyer.  The new MLS Canada flat fee agreement allows access to thousands of potential buyers without substantial Realtor commissions.  An accurate listing price prevents both sellers and buyers from inflating house prices.

Major value can not be attributed to enduring qualities, and they may or may not attribute to saleability in the current market.  Over time, fads and fashions change, but the criteria for a property’s market value remains constant and provable.

Homeowners CAN Sell Their Own Home – Here’s HOW

The biggest challenge for any homeowner is knowing they have the RIGHT PRICE.  For once there’s a way that completely allows the homeowner to take control.  It’s a “Do It Yourself” approach with all the tools and formulas.  YOU can do this.  Find out how simple it is at H.O.M.E.

I’ve paid over $100,000 in real estate commissions in my life.  Although I’ve dealt with many credible and sincere Realtors, I’ve also dealt with the other kind that were in it strictly for the money and didn’t care which side of the fence they were on.  Most homeowners are tired of paying for a sales service that doesn’t sell, and act the same way with every property, every time.  Homes are unique, as unique as the people buying and selling.  Most buyers need more help with evaluating their needs to make the right purchase.  Most sellers fall short of knowing really what their home is worth, and many realtors convince them of prices that the homeowner wants to hear, and not what is reliable and provable.

I’m convinced that the homeowner is the best sales person for their own home with the right tools. They can save themselves thousands of dollars by learning a little. By removing illusions through resources and education, homeowners can choose how to sell their home and trust their decisions.

Did you know that in 2005 when homeowners were asked where they first learned about the house they bought, only 36% said from a real estate agent. Source:  National Association of Realtors

Gee, I wonder what the percentage is now?
