Major real estate brokerage in Ontario helping residents save money as housing market cools

Published July 25, 2022 at 3:43 pm

With the turbulent housing market beginning to cool down in recent months, those who are making the move to sell are getting less than they anticipated – and New Era Real Estate knows that every penny counts.

 

The major real estate brokerage, which services Ontario with its flagship office in Mississauga, is the only brokerage to charge a flat fee of $5,900 for full service, rather than the standard 2.5% – 5% commission that most other brokerages charge.

That flat fee results in huge savings for sellers, which is particularly valuable now as housing prices in many parts of the province are currently evening out and in some cases even dropping due to lower demand.

In Mississauga, for example, a recent report saw home sales in June drop by a whopping 42.9% compared to June of last year. Home sales were 26.9% below the five-year average and 38.8% below the 10-year average for the month of June.

A similar situation is happening in Halton Region, which saw benchmark prices fall in Oakville and Milton as higher interest rates cooled off the market.

“Commissions are out of control and as this market remains unstable, now more than ever it’s important to save on excessive real estate commissions,” said John Martino, Founder, New Era Real Estate.

“We want to maintain the full-service everyone wants but at a fair price.”

New Era currently services Toronto, Mississauga, Brampton, Orangeville, Hamilton, Niagara, Guelph, Georgetown, Halton, Durham, and York.

In addition to the more affordable price, New Era doesn’t lock its sellers into lengthy contract commitments, and no payment is required until the property is successfully sold and the deal closes.

New Era’s full service includes the personal home owners portal, market analysis, professional photography of your property, a variety of selling strategies, home preparation, a robust marketing/advertising campaign, scheduled showings and buyer qualification, negotiation, and much more. All New Era listings go on MLS and on all major real estate websites and social media platforms.

All New Era agents and brokers are fully licensed with years of experience, and sellers are matched with agents that specialize in their area.

Sellers also get access to a personalized web portal that provides everything they need to know about the sale of their home: Property photos and details as it would appear on realtor.ca, paperwork signed and broken down into layman’s terms, showing feedback, showing scheduling, messaging and more, keeping sellers fully informed in real time while still having 24/7 access to their agent.

Since its inception, the brokerage has amassed numerous five-star Google reviews from sellers who appreciated New Era’s affordability, simplicity, and convenience.
