Yes. Or if you know a notary you are comfortable with, then he or she can prepare a contract as well.

Yes, a lawyer is the one thing you should always get. Also, I would suggest picking a smaller firm that you can actually talk to, any decently sized firm is just going to outsource your work to the articling students.

Many people think like you and therein lies the problem. Just like them, you don't understand the process of selling a home. Even if you do a flat rate MLS listing, which will save you tens of thousands of dollars and way more than 1% realty or whatever % commissioned real estate agency you choose, it is the buyer's agent that shows the home, not you. They get the key code for the lock box and show the home while you are out (and you leave even if you have a fully commissioned agent). So, there are no 'annoying people/home buyers' wasting your time. Don't know where you got that from! You really need to read my thread on selling your own home and educate yourself (post #2).LostInTruth wrote: ↑For me, personally I'd hate to deal with annoying people/home buyers wasting my time, so I would fork over the cash for a realtor.

Exactly. You couldn't have hit it more precisely than that. For people that want to cut costs all the way down, Craigslist and Kijiji are popular places with little fees. For others that want traditional service, there is onepercent realty which is substantially cheaper than a full service broker, but still comes with most of the usual refinements. Someone will talk about a lockbox which not all companies provide. In the case of fsbo.ca , they allow the buyer's agent to contact you, thus you need to do some work yourself which is totally the opposite of what that individual claimed. FSBO.ca is still a legit company for a basic mls listing.LostInTruth wrote: ↑For me, personally I'd hate to deal with annoying people/home buyers wasting my time, so I would fork over the cash for a realtor.
