Sell Your Home Faster with an Esold Certification

Posted on May 17, 2013 by Jesse

Standing out from the competition is what selling a home is all about and there is no better way to do it than with eSolds certification. It’s fast, easy and lets potential buyers know about any of the home deficiencies before the purchase. This means that more certainty will be pushing the sale forward resulting sold MLS® listings with faster and smoother transactions.

Certified in 3 easy steps

There are only 3 documents required to get your home certified including the following:

• Comparative Market Analysis (a Letter of Opinion will also be accepted)
• Home Inspection Report or a Status Certificate if you own a condo
• Seller Property Information Statement

The home inspection report is carried out by a certified home inspector that is fully insured and bonded. In order for the report to be accepted it must be dated within the last 30 days and the inspector needs to be verifiable by appearing on a list at 411.ca, Canpages.ca or at YellowPages.ca.

The comparative market analysis needs to be done by a real estate agent and must also be dated within the last 30 days.

The seller property information statement provides basic information about the home such as whether a survey is available, how long the home has been lived in, whether it’s being rented out etc. This document is prepared by the seller of the home to the best of his knowledge and must also be dated within 30 days.

The benefits of eCertificates®

• Get more offers when selling your home
• Get other real estate agents enthused about showing your listing
• Protects your property against expenses that are unforeseen during the negotiation and listing process
• Sell your home at the best price possible
• Sell your property faster

The main difference between a property that has an eCertificate® and one that doesn’t is it is able to stand out from the rest of the crowd. This is the one crucial thing that leads to more offers and a higher selling price than anything else. When others notice your home and decide they want it, things can heat up very quickly with buyers scrambling to put in an offer.
