Common Questions

BC Home Seller FAQ

When is the best time to sell in Metro Vancouver?

+
Spring (March–May) and early fall (September–October) are traditionally the strongest markets. However, properly priced homes sell well year-round. In 2026, spring is shaping up as particularly active with improved buyer affordability from rate cuts.

How do you determine the right listing price?

+
I conduct a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) — looking at recent sales of similar properties nearby, current active listings, and market trends. The goal is to attract maximum buyers while achieving your best outcome. Overpricing kills momentum in the first 2 weeks.

How long will it take to sell my home?

+
Well-priced homes in Metro Vancouver typically sell in 10–21 days. My average is 14 days. Strategic pricing from day one is the single most important factor — homes that sit get stigmatized and sell for less.

Do I need to stage my home?

+
Professional staging typically returns $3–$5 for every $1 invested. At minimum, I recommend decluttering, deep cleaning, and addressing deferred maintenance. I'll walk through your home and give you a specific prep checklist — no guesswork.

What can I do to maximize my sale price?

+
Price right from day one, stage and photograph professionally, and choose an agent with a strong negotiation track record. The difference between a good agent and a great one is often $20,000–$50,000 on a Metro Vancouver home.

Should I sell before or after buying my next home?

+
It depends on your financial position and risk tolerance. Selling first gives you certainty but may require temporary housing. Buying first gives you continuity but carries financial risk. I'll analyze your specific situation and recommend the safest path.
