Putting your home on the market can be a stressful process, especially when you don’t know what to expect. And while this guide outlines several key steps, here’s the truth — for sellers, there’s really just one: call Team McDadi, and we’ll take care of the rest for you.
With the help of our experienced team of real estate agents and this easy to follow guide, you can smoothly complete the process. Following these steps will help you prepare so you can get organized and sell your home for the best price possible.
Before setting a price or listing your home, it’s important to understand your reason for selling. Whether you’re looking to move into a bigger space, relocate to a new city, or simply cash out at the right time, knowing your goals will shape your strategy. Once we understand what’s most important to you — timing, profit, or flexibility — our team will help you plan a personalized roadmap that aligns with your needs.
Pricing your home is one of the most important decisions in the selling process. Our team will review comparable sales, assess the current market conditions in your neighbourhood, and recommend a listing price designed to attract the right buyers while maximizing your return. With thousands of successful sales across the GTA, we know how to strike the balance between speed and top dollar.
Our in-house staging team will work closely with you to get your home into showroom-ready condition. From decluttering and depersonalizing to recommending small repairs or upgrades, we’ll help highlight your home’s best features. Team McDadi offers full-service home staging, including access to our exclusive furniture warehouse and a dedicated designer who can transform your space to impress buyers both in person and online.

When offers start coming in, we’ll review them with you carefully. We’ll help you assess the strength of each offer — not just the price, but conditions, closing dates, and buyer financing. If a great offer needs a little adjusting, we’ll guide you through negotiations to ensure the best possible outcome.
Once you’ve accepted an offer, we’ll make sure all the paperwork is in order. That includes reviewing the deposit, financing terms, inspection timelines, and any buyer conditions. Our job is to protect your interests and make sure every detail is covered before the deal becomes firm.
With the sale in motion, it’s time to get ready for the hand-off. We’ll coordinate any final inspections or repairs, and your lawyer will manage the legal transfer. Our team can connect you with trusted service providers, from movers to cleaners to real estate lawyers, so everything is ready for a smooth transition.
Closing day is when everything becomes official and you are legally transferring ownership of the property to the new buyer. You’ll sign the final documents, transfer the keys, and celebrate the successful sale of your home. We’ll be here for you right until the end — and even after — to ensure every detail is wrapped up and you’re ready for your next move.
During this period, you can also make plans to handle final details such as canceling utilities, cable, and lawn or trash services, changing the name on accounts that the new owner is retaining and ensuring the new owner has instructions for all appliances that will remain in the home.
Selling your home is a big moment, and we’re proud to be part of it. Whether you’re upsizing, downsizing, or moving across the country, our team is here to support you before, during, and after the sale. With the right guidance, this experience can be smooth, rewarding, and really exciting.
