Is there a land transfer tax in Alberta?

No. Alberta has no land transfer tax. You pay land title and mortgage registration fees instead, which are much lower. On a $500,000 home, that's roughly $550, compared with thousands of dollars in Ontario or B.C.

How much are closing costs when buying in Edmonton?

Plan for a home inspection (about $450 to $600), a real estate lawyer (about $1,200 to $1,600 plus GST and disbursements), land title and mortgage registration fees, and moving costs.

How do I find out what my home is worth?

Fill in the free home value form. Brent looks at recent sales near you and the features that make your home different, then sends you a real price range.

Do you work with both buyers and sellers?

Yes. Brent helps people buy and sell homes across Edmonton and the surrounding area, and you deal with him directly the whole way through.

How I work

For sellers and buyers, step by step.

How I work for you

Here’s exactly what you get.

Step 01
Price it to win

I pull the sales on your street and the homes you compete with right now, then walk you through a price range in person.

TypicalA number from an online estimateWith BrentA range built from your street, explained
How this step works

- Your homeSize, updates, lot and streetWalk-through

- For sale nowYour competitionLive

Example only · your price range, from Brent
Step 02
Make it shine

A room-by-room prep plan: what to fix, what to skip, what to stage. Most of it is a few weekends, not a renovation.

Typical“List it as is”With BrentA prep plan sized to your budget
How this step works
Example
Your prep plan · 3 weekends
- Paint the main floor a warm white
- Swap the dining light
- Declutter counters and closets
- Fresh mulch and a new doormat
- Stage the living room
- Skip: new countertops (won’t pay back)
Step 03
Studio-quality media

Pro photos, a walk-through video, drone shots of the block and a floor plan, all ready before launch day.

You always know

Every Monday you get a short report: showings, what buyers said, how many saw the listing online, and our next move.

Typical“No news yet”With BrentA report every Monday

Step 06
Win the offers

I lay every offer side by side: price, conditions, dates and what you actually walk away with. Then I negotiate for the best one.

Tour smart

At every showing I point out what costs money later: roof age, furnace, grading, windows. It all goes into Hearth, our touring app, so your checklists and our messages stay in one place.
