Most people listing their home right now are focused on the wrong things entirely, and it is costing them offers they never even know they missed.

In this episode Paul sits down with Frances Ebbrell, a real estate agent who has built her approach around something most agents never talk about: emotional storytelling. Frances breaks down why selling a home has nothing to do with listing its features and everything to do with making a buyer feel something the moment they walk through the door or read the listing description. She explains the difference between a home that sits and a home that gets multiple offers, and it comes down to whether buyers can picture themselves living the life that home represents.

The conversation also gets into presentation in a way that goes beyond staging tips. She also covers radon awareness, what sellers need to know before listing, and how to price and position a home in a market where buyers are still waiting for prices to drop.

If you are thinking about selling in Ottawa or the surrounding area this spring, this episode will change how you think about what your home is actually worth and how to present it to get the best possible outcome.
