3. MELANIE GAULIN
Sales Representative
Selling Houses, Creating Homes

4. My love of homes began in Real Estate Law over 12 years ago. After becoming familiar with the
intricate legal implications of buying and selling real property I decided to get my license to trade
in Real Estate.
I began actively selling in 2005. In 2008 I received my first Award for Outstanding Sales. I
continue to receive awards - most recently the 2011 President`s Platinum Award.
Thanks to clients both past and present, I have enjoyed an extremely successful career specializing
in First Time Buyers; Fine Properties, Rural Properties, Power of Sales, & Green Developments.
I am known for my superior service; high-energy; honesty; approachability; delivering integrity &
attention to detail on every sale whilst offering constant communication.
TO BE GOOD AT WHAT YOU DO,
YOU MUST HAVE A PASSION TO SUCCEED
I am a professional from start to finish and I will
handle your real estate interests with emphasis on
service, dedication, compassion & integrity.
Referrals have been a large part of my continued success, without the
help of you, and your continued support in sending me your friends
and families, my career would not flourish.
ITS NOT THE EXPERIENCE, IT’S THE RESULTS

5. CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

Proper Pricing:
Proper pricing captures the interest of the market place during the
first 1.5 to 4 weeks. Traditionally this timeframe is when your home
will have the most amount of interest from buyers.

17. CMA
Current Market Analysis
I can give you a price range for the sale of you home. That range will be
determined by using the information you provided to establish a list of comparable
properties in your area as reported by the Multiple Listing Service (MLS).
Please let me know when you'd like that information
so I can arrange a convenient time for a visit.

18. COMMISSION
The fee paid to your Agent/Broker for the
services provided in selling your home.

19. When your home sells, the commission fee is deducted from the
proceeds of the sale and is paid to the real estate brokerage that has
your listing. Then, half of the commission is forwarded to the
company working on behalf of the buyer.
Example:
5% of Sale Price If you list your house with a 5% commission
rate, it is split between your Agent (2 ½ %)
and the Buyer’s Agent (2 ½ %).
Typically commission is determined by your local
Listing marketplace. In determining the amount of
Agent commission to be paid, the following factors
Buying should be taken into consideration:
Agent
 Activity within the marketplace
 Competition for homes in your neighbourhood
 The amount of advertising that will be done
 The service and experience provided by your
REALTOR
