The spring and summer real estate market may be popular, but the Fall can be just as fruitful! With less homes on the market, your property will stand out and face less competition.

Service providers like home inspectors, movers, and lawyers have more availability in the fall, so finalizing everything becomes easier to align with your schedule. Plus, Calgary truly is beautiful in the fall. There is no better time to show off your home!

If you're preparing to sell your home these fall, here are some tips to get started:

You did it! You sold your home, the deal has closed, and now you’re standing in your empty house preparing to say your goodbyes. It is the end of an era, but the start of a new adventure. This is an exciting, but sometimes daunting, challenge.

If you’re anxious that you may be forgetting something or missing an important step of the moving process, here is a checklist for your last day in your old home: 

1). Make sure you have everything packed and moved. Do a final walkthrough just to be sure you have not missing anything. Review your closing contracts closely to ensure you don’t take anything with you that was on contract to stay in the home, such as a trampoline or microwave.

Moving is never a small task—but moving in the height of summer can make it feel like a marathon in the desert. While Calgary’s summer season offers beautiful blue skies and warm prairie breezes, the temperatures can spike quickly, turning your moving day into a sweaty, exhausting event. But with a bit of planning and the right strategy, you can keep cool (literally and figuratively) during your summer move.

First, plan to begin your move early in the day. In Calgary, summer temperatures tend to rise rapidly by midday. Plan to begin your move as early in the morning as possible, ideally before 9 a.m. Not only is it cooler, but traffic is often lighter too—especially if you're moving on a weekday. If you are using movers, they will also appreciate…
