The first call is a valuation, not a listing agreement. Joel documents the home's condition and any rental history against the Saskatchewan REALTORS Association's benchmark home price of $444,700, since both parties in a divorce need that number before any decision about timing or price gets made.
From there, Joel sets a single communication channel so both parties see the same updates on showings and offers at the same time, which avoids the disputes that come from one side hearing news before the other.
Contacting Joel early, before a court date forces a rushed listing, gives both parties more room to price and time the sale correctly. Get your hand-reviewed valuation from Joel Dyck.
