Common Questions
How long does it take to appear on REALTOR.ca?
Once your listing details are complete, our team reviews and activates your listing. It is then submitted to the MLS® system and appears on REALTOR.ca shortly after activation.
Do I have to offer buyer-agent compensation?
No. Whether to offer compensation to a buyer’s brokerage is your decision. If a REALTOR® brings the buyer and you have agreed to compensation, that amount is added to your selling costs — you can model both scenarios on our savings pages.
What happens when I receive an offer?
Review the price together with the deposit, conditions, closing date and inclusions. You can accept, reject or counter — and you can bring Smart Brokerages in for professional offer and closing management when the transaction becomes more complex.
Who holds the buyer’s deposit?
Where the agreement directs Smart Brokerages to hold the deposit, it is administered through the brokerage’s regulated real estate trust account, as required by RECO, and released only in accordance with the agreement.
Can I change my listing details later?
Yes. Contact Smart Brokerages and we will update your MLS® listing details for you while your property is on the market.
Can Smart Brokerages help me review or negotiate an offer?
Yes. Professional Offer & Closing Management ($999 + HST) covers offer review assistance, negotiation and counter-offer support, document coordination, and deposit and transaction administration through the firm deal.
