Selling is about far more than a Centris listing
Most sellers think the hardest part is finding a buyer. In reality, it's finding the right buyer, at the right price, at the right time. I build a tailored selling strategy before even opening the doors.

The process
5 steps to sell at the best price
From evaluation to key handover, I orchestrate every step of your sale with rigor and transparency.
Free evaluationI conduct an in-depth analysis of recent sales in your area, the condition of your property and competitive positioning to set the right price. Not too low to leave money on the table, not too high to discourage qualified buyers.
Before photos and the first showings, I guide you: depersonalization, home staging, strategic minor work. The goal is to create an immediate emotional response to maximize the number of offers received.
Professional photos, 3D virtual tour, listing on Centris and MLS, targeted Instagram and Facebook campaigns, private network of qualified buyers. Your property is shown to the right buyers, at the right time.
I analyze every offer received and advise you on the best counter-proposals. My goal is yours: the best price in the best conditions, protecting your interests at every round of negotiation.
Coordination with the notary, follow-up on every condition and support through to final key handover. Every detail is handled so you can close with confidence.
Before listing
4 questions to ask before selling
Before setting a price and opening the doors, I analyze your complete situation. These four reflections structure every selling mandate.
Talk to AlexiaWhat is the real value of your property?
The listing price is the most critical decision. Too low and you leave money on the table. Too high and you drive away qualified buyers. A rigorous comparative analysis is the starting point of every successful sale.
Is your property ready for the market?
90% of buyers start their search online. First impressions are everything. Targeted home staging and a few strategic adjustments can significantly increase perceived value and the number of offers received.
When is the right time to sell?
The Montreal market has seasons and micro-cycles by neighborhood. Spring remains the peak period, but some sectors perform well in the fall. I analyze Centris data for your area to identify the optimal timing.
Do you know your legal obligations?
The seller's declaration, hidden defects, condition removal timelines: selling in Quebec involves precise legal responsibilities. I guide you through every obligation to protect you before, during and after the sale.

Frequently asked
What sellers
want to know.
How much does a broker cost to sell in Montreal?
Fees are generally between 4 and 5% of the sale price, of which approximately 2% is paid to the buyer's broker. These fees are payable only at the closing with the notary. No upfront fees, no financial commitment before the sale.
When is the best time to sell a property in Montreal?
Spring (March to June) is traditionally the most active season on the island. Fall (September to November) represents a strong second window. That said, the optimal timing depends on your sector and property type. I analyze Centris data for your market to recommend the most advantageous timing.
How long does a real estate sale take in Montreal?
A well-positioned and well-prepared property typically sells within 2 to 6 weeks of listing. Once an offer is accepted, allow 45 to 90 days to close at the notary depending on the negotiated conditions. Most transactions complete in 60 to 120 days total.
What is the seller's declaration?
The seller's declaration is a legal document in Quebec in which you disclose everything you know about the state of your property: past water infiltration, completed work, claims, neighbor issues. It protects the buyer but also the seller, by limiting recourse for hidden defects after the transaction. I guide you through its preparation.
