Selling your home in the GTA
A clear plan, an honest price, and a free home evaluation, with no pressure to list. You keep the number whether or not you decide to sell.
What selling with me looks like
I work for you, the seller. My job is to help you understand what your home is worth, prepare it well, compare offers honestly, and guide you through the paperwork to closing, with no pressure to list.
We start with what buyers will compare your home to, and the price comes last. You decide what to do with the plan, and you keep the evaluation whether or not we list.
My promise on every sale

What most sellers need help with
Selling a home is more than putting a number on it. Here is where most sellers want a steady hand.
Getting the price right
A price based on real recent sales. We compare your home to what buyers are actually choosing from.
Timing the sale
When you list matters. We pick a plan and a review date that fit your goals, and we adjust based on how buyers respond, not on a hunch.
Preparing the home
Some updates pay for themselves and some do not. I tell you honestly what is worth doing before you spend anything.
Comparing offers
Price is one part of an offer. We compare deposit, conditions, and closing and possession dates too, and you decide which offer is right for you.
Moving on
If you are also buying, we plan both moves together so one does not force the other. Your lawyer and mortgage professional handle the financing side.
The paperwork
The listing agreement, the offer, and the closing steps. I guide you through each one in clear language, so you know what you are signing.
How we decide your price
The price comes last. First we understand how buyers will see your home, then we ground the number in real sales, and we keep adjusting based on evidence.

How buyers will compare your home
We talk about how buyers will compare your home before we talk about a number. The price comes last.
- 2
Recent sold homes, then current choices
We look at recent sold homes first, then at what buyers can choose to buy right now.
- 3
We compare your home together
You and I compare your home to those homes together, and the decision is yours.
- 4
We agree on a review date
We agree on a review date before the home goes on the market, so we are never guessing.
- 5
We adjust based on evidence
After launch we look at showings, buyer feedback and competing homes on a regular schedule, and we change the plan based on evidence, not emotion.
What you walk away with
A sale is not just about the price on the offer. We also look at the money you keep after fees and your mortgage payout, so you know what the move means for you.
- The price buyers are willing to pay.
- The fees and your mortgage payout, so you see what you keep.
- A clear plan and a review date, with no pressure to list.
Please confirm the details of your sale, your fees, and your mortgage payout with your own lawyer and accountant. I can help with the buying and selling, and they can help with the legal and financial side.
Comparing offers
The highest offer is not always the best one for you. We compare offers on more than price, and you decide which one to accept.
Deposit
How much the buyer puts down up front and when, as a sign they are serious.
Conditions
Financing, inspection, or selling their own home. We read each one and what it means for you.
Closing date
When the sale completes. We match it to your timing, especially if you are also buying.
Possession date
When you hand over the keys. We make sure it lines up with your move.
I lay out the trade-offs in clear language. The seller decides which offer is right for them.

When you sell with me
I pay for a pre-listing home inspection, so you and your buyers know the condition of the home before the first showing.
The home warranty plan is offered only to buyers purchasing a primary home. The pre-listing home inspection is offered to sellers. Both are offered and paid for personally by Jafar Fathi. They are not offered, paid for, or guaranteed by Right at Home Realty Brokerage. Details are available on request.
