SELLING YOUR HOME
Selling your home is a complex and often emotional process involving large sums of money and stringent legal requirements. For best results you will need the help of a REALTOR who has the knowledge, training and experience to effectively market your home and look out for your best interests.
USING THE MLS TO SELL YOUR HOME
The MLS is a central registry of properties used by REALTORS to match buyers with homes on the market. MLS is described as a "cooperative marketing system" to ensure maximum exposure of properties for sale. The MLS is very effective. Last year, sales across Canada from MLS listings totalled an amazing $58 billion.
In addition to being distributed in printed catalogues, MLS is also a sophisticated computer database of properties indexed by price, location, type of home, number of bedrooms, amenities and so forth. Photos of homes may also be available on-line and, over the past year, many real estate boards have added their MLS listings to the Internet through www.mls.ca.
