How can I get the best price when selling my home?
Pricing your home correctly, staging it well, and using a strong marketing strategy can make all the difference. I use Edmonton real estate services like professional photography, targeted digital campaigns, and strategic pricing to attract the right buyers and secure top-dollar offers.
What are the best neighbourhoods in Edmonton for first-time home buyers?
Neighbourhoods like Windermere, Summerside, and Glenora offer great options for first-time buyers, with excellent amenities, schools, and community vibes. Let’s find the right fit for your lifestyle and budget.
Should I buy or sell my home first?
This depends on your financial situation and the market conditions. In a seller’s market, selling first might be best to maximize your home’s value. In a buyer’s market, purchasing first ensures you secure your next home before selling. I can help you strategize using my Edmonton real estate services.

I provide a free home valuation using local market data, recent sales, and property comparisons. Reach out to get an accurate estimate and insights on how to maximize your home’s value.

For most properties, the minimum down payment is 5% for homes under $500,000 and 10% for the portion above $500,000. My Edmonton real estate services includes connecting you with mortgage specialists to explore financing options that fit your goals.

Every home purchase is unique, but I’ll guide you through the process to make it as smooth as possible.
What’s the best way to get my home ready to sell?
How does property tax work in Edmonton?
Property taxes are based on the City of Edmonton’s assessed value of your home. The rate changes annually and can be paid in one lump sum or through the TIPP (Tax Installment Payment Plan) for monthly payments.
Always check the latest rates on the City of Edmonton’s website.
What’s the difference between a mortgage broker and a bank?
Mortgage Broker – Shops multiple lenders for the best rate and terms.
Bank – Offers only their own mortgage products.
Brokers often secure better rates and more flexible terms, but some buyers prefer the simplicity of working with their existing bank.
What are special assessments in condos, and should I be worried?
A special assessment is an extra fee charged to condo owners when the reserve fund isn’t enough to cover major repairs.
To protect yourself:
- Always review the reserve fund study before buying a condo.
- Ask if there are pending or expected assessments.
A low condo fee isn’t always a good thing—it may mean the reserve fund is underfunded.
What happens if I break my mortgage early?
If you sell your home or refinance before your term is up, your lender may charge:
- A three-month interest penalty (common with variable-rate mortgages).
- An Interest Rate Differential (IRD) (can be much higher for fixed-rate mortgages).
Check with your lender before selling to avoid unexpected penalties.
Do I need a real estate lawyer?
Yes, both buyers and sellers should have a lawyer to:
- Review contracts & mortgage documents
- Ensure proper title transfer
- Handle closing funds securely
