The City of Saskatoon assesses properties on a cycle that lags behind real market conditions. If you renovated last year, the city assessment may not reflect that work for another full cycle. Online tools like HouseSigma and Realtor.ca pull from that same public data, so they miss your improvements entirely.
This is the gap that costs sellers money. A home with $40,000 in renovations can be undervalued by $30,000 or more on paper, and if you list based on that paper value, you leave equity on the table at closing.
Joel's valuation process walks through your home in person, documents every improvement, and compares against recently sold homes in Saskatoon that have similar upgrades. You get a number that accounts for the work you actually did, not just what the city has on file.
