When the tour requests start pouring in, be ready! Prepare a sales pitch highlighting the strong points of your property. Be available and attentive to potential buyers.

Negotiate and finalize the transaction
The negotiation phase is often the most delicate of the sales process. This is where your ability to juggle various fields will be put to the test. When you receive an offer, take the time to analyze it in depth. Don’t rush to the first suggestion, even if it seems tempting. Consider all aspects of the offer, not just the price.
Here are some points to consider when negotiating:
- The amount of the offer compared to your original sale price
- Buyer’s financing conditions
- Any suspensive clauses
- The proposed signing date
Do not hesitate to make a counter-offer if the offer does not completely satisfy you. Negotiation is a dialogue, not a confrontation. Aim for a win-win agreement that will satisfy both parties.
Once the offer is accepted, it is time to sign the compromise or promise of sale. This document is essential because it binds both parties. Make sure you understand all terms before signing. This is when you will need to gather all the necessary documents for the sale:
- Title deed
- Mandatory real estate diagnostics
- Certificates of possible work
- Latest property and housing taxes
- Condominium regulations (for an apartment)
The last step is the signing of the deed of sale at the notary. This is the culmination of the whole process. Before the big day, make sure all the documents are in order and that the buyer has secured financing. On the big day, reread the document carefully before signing it. Once signatures are signed, keys handed out, and funds transferred, the sale is officially complete!
By following these steps rigorously and remaining attentive to the market, you maximize your chances of successfully selling your property. Remember that every transaction is unique, and flexibility is often the key to success. Happy selling!
