We all know that many people browse listings on HouseSigma, find their new dream home, and connect with one of our incredible agents to guide them through their homebuying journey. But did you know that HouseSigma also offers amazing benefits to home sellers, too?
There have always been lots of perks to selling your home through HouseSigma, and that’s even truer now that we have a fantastic new deal on our listing fees.
Here are just five of the biggest reasons you should choose HouseSigma when selling your home.
1. Professional, expert, local agents you can trust
When you choose HouseSigma, you’re connected with professional local agents who know your market inside and out.
We maintain the highest standards through a rigorous screening and selection process. With ongoing professional development and training, we ensure that our agents stay at the forefront of industry knowledge.
Steven Yanni, HouseSigma’s managing broker for Ontario, said, “Our agents are the backbone of the experience. We’re selective about who joins the team, and we provide them with advanced tools. When our clients work with a HouseSigma agent, they’re getting someone who knows the local market and is held to a higher standard.”
2. Millions of users can easily see your “Featured Listing”
Most home listings you’ll see on HouseSigma are from the many other real estate brokerages out there, and there’s a LOT of noise. But when you sell with HouseSigma, your home listing will receive the coveted Featured Listing status on our website.
That means your listing will be promoted on the home page of HouseSigma’s mobile app and desktop site, surfacing it to HouseSigma’s two million-plus active users. It will get far more views on our website than other comparable non-featured listings! In the end, you are much more likely to find a buyer from the HouseSigma website than home sellers using other brokerages.
Steven Yanni added, “That’s a massive audience you just don’t get anywhere else.”
3. Listing fee of just 1.5% – or even lower if you bundle
Instead of the standard 3% commission for listing your home that most real estate agents charge, HouseSigma’s fee is just half that, at 1.5% commission. You’ll be saving many thousands of dollars compared with most listing fees!
For example, on a $800,000 home, if you use an agent who charges 3%, you’ll pay $24,000 in commission. With HouseSigma’s 1.5% listing fee, on the same home you’ll pay just $12,000.
What’s more, HouseSigma is now offering a bundle deal that means you pay only 1% listing fee* when selling your home, if your home is priced above $699,995 and you also buy your next home through one of our agents.
In this scenario, selling that $800,000 home in the example above will now cost you only $8,000 in commission. That’s a third of what the regular 3% commission will set you back.
4. High-quality marketing and promotion
We’ve all heard horror stories of agents who seem enthusiastic when they are first retained, and then fail to put any work into marketing or showing the home they have been hired to sell. Don’t worry. When you list your home with HouseSigma, the following services are all included as part of the package:
- Professional photography
- Marketing brochures
- Floor plans
- For-sale signage
- Open houses hosted by your agent
- Virtual tours
Your HouseSigma agent can also advise you on any additional services that are on offer.
5. Canada’s top-rated real estate app, trusted by thousands
Don’t take our word for it! HouseSigma is Canada’s top-rated real estate app in both the App Store and the Google Play Store, being rated higher on both platforms than any other Canadian listing app. HouseSigma also has thousands of five-star reviews on TrustPilot.
Check out what one client, Jackie, had to say in her five-star Trust Pilot review after both buying and selling homes with HouseSigma:
“Our real estate agent Sam Ehsan made our buying/selling experience much less stressful than we expected. He negotiated great prices for both houses and handled stuff behind the scenes so that we didn’t have to deal with it. Sam being with HouseSigma was a benefit that we feel contributed to a quick sale of our house, because Sam took time and care to ensure our house was in the best position to sell. He took care of staging the house and having it cleaned prior to pictures. Overall our experience with Sam and HouseSigma was 5 stars.”
