Selling Your Property, Step by Step

Selling a property is a significant endeavor, and it's wise to want to be well-informed.

Before: Making Sure You Are Well Prepared

Selling a property is a complex undertaking. It is therefore important to be well informed and supported. By choosing to do business with a real estate broker, you are protected under the Real Estate Brokerage Act. To make sure you are well prepared, we recommend that you first learn about a broker’s role, and more specifically his duties and obligations when it comes to the sale of your property.

During : The steps to selling your property

If a buyer is interested in your property following a visit, he may ask to see it again. Then, if the buyer is represented by a broker, he will draft a Promise to purchase with his broker, spelling out the conditions under which he is prepared to purchase your property. At that point you may either accept the promise to purchase or make a counter-proposal.

After: Following the Promise to Purchase

Once the Promise to Purchase or the Counter-proposal is accepted and all conditions are met, it's time to formalize the transaction. This phase primarily involves two procedures with a notary: title examination, which includes verifying documents related to ownership title, dimensions, zoning, and other charges; and drafting the deed of sale. As per the Civil Code of Québec, a notary is essential for property transfer.
