Calgary is in the midst of an incredibly hot real estate market. Here are some tips for making your home offer stand out: 

Get Background Information: Homes.com suggests, "ask your agent to get the inside scoop of what the seller may want by asking the listing agent... Some sellers prefer you use a specific title company or have a specific possession date that would align with a date that is convenient for them.

Put Your Best Foot Forward: Lindsey Hood writes, "if it’s a home you don’t want to miss out on, make a strong offer from the start. Don’t underbid with the expectation that there’s room for negotiation. In a desirable market, you should…

Calgary is in the midst of an incredibly hot real estate market right now! We are currently in a sellers market, and things are getting competitive out there. Many home sellers are navigating multiple offers on their homes within the first few days of their property being listed. While things are beginning to cool off as more inventory enters the market, here are some things to consider for those you selling who are faced with multiple offers to choose from:

Attention all builders and developers, your opportunity has arrived!

Attention Builders and Developers

A golden opportunity awaits with the listing of this prime 50x120 R-C2 building lot in the prestigious inner-city community of Montgomery!
