One of the most important things you can do when selling your home is to stage it properly. Staging is the art of presenting your home in its best possible light. When staging your home, the goal is to make buyers come away from their visit able to envision themselves living there. It needs to be clean, bright, and clutter-free.

And what about during the holidays? What if you want to decorate for Halloween, or put up the Christmas lights?

When it comes to staging your home for sale during the holidays, we have one word for you: minimalism. Minimalism is all about ensuring every object has a function or a purpose. This does not mean your home has to be empty; it simply means it must be intentional. You can still enjoy the décor of the holidays…

As beautiful as Calgary's autumn season is, it’s the beginning of the end for long sunny days. With the sun setting earlier each day, the nights are stretching. Have you noticed yourself feeling tired earlier in the evening? This is likely because of this change.

The shorter days have a significant impact on home showings. This is because it is incredibly difficult to properly assess a prospective home when it’s too dark to see it. In the dark buyers won’t be able to fully experience the bustle of the neighbourhood or see the potential of the full property. You may notice showing bookings trend earlier in the day, even first thing in the morning, to avoid the dark nights.

When it comes to selling a home, first impressions go far beyond what buyers see. They’re also shaped by what buyers smell.

Psychology Today writes, "olfaction, also known as sense of smell, is the most primal and mysterious of our six senses. Throughout human evolution, our sense of smell has been a key to our survival. Humans are capable of distinguishing thousands of unique odors. Fragrances have the ability to evoke both positive and negative psychological states of mind and reactions in milliseconds."

So, how can you make a positive impact on buyers olfactory senses?

When the leaves start to turn and kids head back to class, schools suddenly become one of the biggest factors shaping real estate decisions. For many families, fall is not just about pumpkins and cozy sweaters—it’s about finding the best place for your child to get an education. Whether you’re buying, selling, or investing, proximity to schools plays a huge role in the fall real estate market.

Being close to schools offers families many advantages. First, neighbourhoods with schools often offer stronger community ties, sports programs, and after-school activities. These services give children a chance to make friends and build their own community within the neighbourhoods, leading to better socialization. The other big advantage is, simply,…

Summer in Calgary, Alberta has come to an end. Thankfully we always retain the sunny weather and warm afternoons, despite the golden leaves and pumpkin spice lattes.

This summer was a rainy one, but busy in the world of real estate! There were 2,099 sales in July alone. While many prospective home buyers made their move in the summer months, others hesitated.

Not all of these concerns were addressed before the summer ended, but it has created a unique opportunity for sellers.
