Selling with Pleasants Real Estate Team

 

Your Home Deserves More Than iPhone Photos and a Prayer

In Vancouver's competitive market, your listing has about 3 seconds to make an impression. That's why we don't just list homes—we launch them.

As listing specialists with an in-house cinematic media team, strategic marketing approach, and deep neighborhood expertise, we turn your property into the one buyers can't stop thinking about. The result? More showings, stronger offers, and top dollar for your home.

Whether you're selling a $600K condo or a $6M estate, you get the same premium treatment: Hollywood-level visuals, data-driven pricing, targeted campaigns, and white-glove service from listing day to closing.


This Is What Selling Should Look Like

🎥 Cinematic Media That Stops the Scroll

Most listings get lost in the noise. Yours won't.

Our in-house media team produces professional listing films, photography, and drone footage that makes buyers stop scrolling and start sharing. We're talking:

  • Cinematic listing films with professional editing, music, and storytelling
  • Twilight and golden hour photography that showcases your home at its best
  • Aerial drone footage highlighting property features and neighborhood
  • Virtual staging options when needed to help buyers see the potential
  • Fast turnaround - we control the entire process, no waiting on third parties

The difference? Listings with professional video get 403% more inquiries than those without. We don't just say your home looks great—we prove it.

📊 Strategic Pricing (Not Guessing)

Pricing your home right from day one is critical. Too high and you sit. Too low and you leave money on the table.

We provide a comprehensive market analysis based on:

  • Recent sales in your specific neighborhood (not just "Vancouver")
  • Current active listings you're competing against
  • Days on market trends for similar properties
  • Buyer demand patterns we're seeing right now
  • Seasonal market conditions and timing factors

Our approach: We tell you what your home is actually worth based on data—not what you want to hear to win your listing. Then we create a pricing strategy designed to attract multiple offers and maximize your sale price.

Honest talk: If now's not the right time to sell, or if your expectations don't match market reality, we'll tell you. Our reputation is built on results, not just closed deals.


📍 Neighborhood Expertise That Matters

A Kitsilano character home needs different positioning than a Yaletown condo. A Shaughnessy estate attracts different buyers than a Mount Pleasant townhouse.

We know Vancouver. From Dunbar to Commercial Drive, Burnaby to Maple Ridge, we understand:

  • What buyers are willing to pay in each neighborhood
  • Which features command premium prices where
  • How to position your home against competing listings
  • Which buyers are actively looking in your area
  • Upcoming developments that affect property values

This matters because: The same square footage sells for vastly different prices depending on the block. We know those nuances—and we use them to your advantage.


🚀 Marketing That Actually Reaches Buyers

Pretty photos aren't enough. You need a strategic campaign that puts your listing in front of serious buyers at the right time.

Our marketing playbook includes:

Targeted Digital Advertising
Facebook, Instagram, and real estate platform ads targeted to buyers actively searching in your area and price range

MLS Optimization

Seller FAQs

Q: How much does it cost to sell with you?
A: Commission rates vary based on property type, price point, and services needed. We'll discuss this transparently during our initial consultation.

Q: How long does it take to sell a home?
A: It depends on pricing, condition, location, and market conditions. Well-priced homes in desirable areas often sell within 2-4 weeks. We'll give you realistic expectations based on current market data.

Q: Do I need to stage my home?
A: Not always, but it often helps. We'll advise on whether full staging, partial staging, or just decluttering makes sense for your specific property and budget.

Q: What if my home doesn't sell right away?
A: We analyze what's not working (price, presentation, marketing) and adjust strategy. If we listed it right, it should sell. If it's not, we fix it.

Q: Can you sell my home if I'm also buying?
A: Absolutely. We coordinate both transactions to minimize stress and maximize timing. We can also help you navigate bridge financing if needed.

Q: What makes your media different?
A: It's in-house. We control quality, turnaround, and creative direction. Most agents outsource to photographers who shoot 3-4 homes per day. Our team focuses on making your home look exceptional—not just acceptable.
