Seller's Info
Documents Related to Selling
Signing
a Listing Agreement
The
first formal step in selling your property is entering into a Listing
Agreement with your Royal LePage agent. The Listing Agreement is a contract
in which Royal LePage commits to actively market your home for a specified
period of time. It also commits you to a pre-established marketing fee
that is to be paid upon the successful closing of the sale.
As part of the Agreement, your agent may require the following documents:
Plan of Survey or Location Certificate
A survey of your property which outlines the lot size and location of
buildings as well as details of encroachments from neighbouring properties.
This may be required in certain areas to complete the sale of your home.
Your legal professional may recommend a survey, especially if significant
changes have been made to your property.
Property
Tax Receipts
Most
Listing Agreements require that current annual property tax assessments
be shown.
Mortgage verification
Few homeowners know the exact balance of their mortgage as it is paid
down. You will be asked to authorize your mortgage lender to provide the
figures required.
Deed or title search
This document is a legal description of your property and the proof that
you own it.
Other documentation
In some instances, it may help the sale of your property if you can provide
prospective buyers with information on such items as annual heating, electrical,
and water expenses, as well as any recent home improvement costs. Some
provinces require that you sign a property condition disclosure statement.
Make
sure to read carefully - an offer is a legal contract!
