Prices are stagnating and sales are taking longer. People often ask me: What can I do to sell my property at the highest price in a buyer\u2019s market?<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a legitimate question. Two out of every three real estate brokers have never encountered this type of market. I was one of the \u201clucky\u201d ones to have witnessed a buyer\u2019s market when I began my career in 1995. It took me 280 days to sell a home in Outremont. Fast-forward ten years to a more balanced market, and I sold the very same home in just five days.<\/p>\n<p>While there\u2019s no miracle solution for our current situation, there are some important lessons I\u2019ve learned from my own personal experience.<\/p>\n<h3>Trust<\/h3>\n<p>You need to have a solid relationship with your broker that\u2019s based on trust. As a selling customer, you need to know that your broker knows what to do in a buyer\u2019s market.<\/p>\n<h3>Extensive market knowledge<\/h3>\n<p>More than ever, your broker has to be able to give you a fair and realistic appraisal of your property. That<br \/>\nmeans knowing the market inside-out, and being able to tactfully come to an agreement with you.<br \/>\nConnaissance sup\u00e9rieure.<\/p>\n<h3>Patience<\/h3>\n<p>Patience is vital. That doesn\u2019t mean resigning yourself to a lower price or waiting forever; it simply<br \/>\nmeans working a little harder and not being afraid to stray from the beaten path!<\/p>\n<p>It takes extensive experience and expertise, realistic expectations of the market and an innovative approach. That\u2019s precisely how REALTA has always set itself apart in the industry. Rain or shine.<\/p>\n<p>The president,<br \/>\nFran\u00e7ois Bissonnette<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Buyers have gained the upper hand in the real estate market in the last year.
