Preparing your Ottawa home for sale

A step-by-step checklist for documents, repairs, presentation, pricing and launch day.

Begin with the decision, not décor

Clarify your timing, next move and acceptable conditions before spending on improvements. Prioritize safety, visible maintenance and simple presentation; not every renovation returns its cost.

Build a documented launch plan

Your pricing conversation should use relevant recent comparable sales and current competition. Prepare photography, showing instructions and required documents before the listing goes live so buyers receive a consistent experience.
