Selling to Direct Home Buyers vs.
Listing with a Local Agent
Even in a strong seller’s market like the Greater Toronto Area, it’s smart to compare your options. While listing with a traditional agent might get you a higher sticker price, that doesn’t always mean more money in your pocket or a smoother experience.
Check out the comparison below to see which option works best for you:
| Listing with a Real Estate Agent | Selling to Us | |
|---|---|---|
| Commissions / Fees | 5% + HST paid by the seller | None |
| Financing Contingencies | Yes — up to 15% of deals fall through | None — We pay cash |
| Appraisal Required | Yes — often required by buyer’s lender | No — Cash offer, no appraisal needed |
| Time to Sell | Typically 30+ days | Instant cash offer |
| Showings Required | Usually several | Only one — just us |
| Closing Timeline | 30–60 days after offer is accepted | You choose the date |
| Repairs Needed | Often negotiated after inspection | None — we buy as-is and cover repairs |
