What is verifiable is how negotiating skill actually operates: an agent who works from recently sold comparable sales, not just what is currently listed, can advise you where to offer, where to hold and when to walk, and those decisions move your final price by real dollars.
A statistic built on one country's brokerage data does not automatically apply to Saskatoon, where inventory, pricing norms and negotiating culture differ. Judging an agent by their record on homes like the one you want is more reliable than quoting an unsourced average.
