  • 32. "20 Questions!" Everything You Wanted to Ask Your Realtor But Were Afraid to Google...
    Jun 1 2026
    Andrew and Jeff present a rapid FAQ of common client questions: whether sellers must accept a full-price offer, when commission is owed, who pays commission, how to estimate net proceeds, whether to sell now or wait, how to price correctly, handling direct approaches from neighbours/tenants, marketing choices (photos, staging, signs, open houses), what to fix, oil tank risks, selling with tenants, and why buyers should negotiate in good faith rather than tying up multiple properties. They also discuss Oakridge’s reopening and their expected return to the Oakridge office in October, then review Vancouver market stats showing year-to-date sales.Stats can be accessed at www.vancouvermarketreport.ca.00:40 Oakridge Opening01:42 Mall Stores and Office Return02:48 Seven Years and Market Whiplash03:30 Sales Numbers and Tariff Shock04:56 Why Unique Homes Still Compete06:46 Fixing Tired Listings07:57 Prep Work Pays Off10:04 Disclaimers and Shameless Plug11:20 Introducing 20 Client FAQs12:33 Do We Have to Accept Asking18:13 Commission Basics Who Pays20:21 Net Proceeds Breakdown21:39 Sell Now or Wait23:14 How to Price It Right28:35 MLS Momentum and Buyer Alerts30:33 Next Topic Tease Hot Tub30:38 Neighbor Wants to Buy31:40 MLS Versus Private Sale32:22 Exempt Buyer Strategy34:06 Marketing Essentials35:41 Open Houses and Signs39:25 Repairs and Inspections42:14 Staging That Sells44:54 Oil Tank Risk47:23 Selling With Tenants49:37 Offers and Good Faith53:39 Market Memories and Rates55:56 Wrap Up and Next EpisodeSend us Fan Mail

    Jeff and Andrew discuss local market conditions in Vancouver, noting Q1 is behind them and activity is selective.
