Questions

You probably have questions.

Start with whatever's on your mind.

Am I actually getting less?

Am I getting less because I'm paying less?No. You're doing more. Your broker still does the work included in the service you choose.

Go.Prop.Immo changes how the work is divided and how you pay for it. You take care of the parts of selling your home that don't need your broker. Your broker takes care of the professional work included in the service you choose. That can mean evaluating your home, preparing and managing your Centris listing, or handling offers, negotiations, conditions and the transaction through closing.

Is this a real brokerage listing?Yes. It's a brokerage listing on official OACIQ forms, with a licensed real estate broker.

Your broker prepares your brokerage contract, reviews your property information and documents, writes and publishes your listing on Centris and keeps it up to date. This isn't a paid posting service. It's a brokerage listing managed by your broker.

Centris Listing →
Will buyers and other brokers actually see my home?Yes. Your home is listed on Centris.

Your broker gets your home on Centris and manages the listing there. You can also promote your home yourself using the approved listing material your broker provides—on Facebook Marketplace, Kijiji, DuProprio, social media, with a yard sign or through your own network.

Will other brokers still show my home to their buyers?Yes. Your broker still collaborates with other real estate brokers.

A buyer can still work with their own broker and visit your home with them. Your broker has a duty to collaborate with other brokers. You choose the amount offered to a buyer's broker. If one is involved in the sale, that amount is separate from your Go.Prop.Immo service. The amount offered matters. OACIQ requires reasonable remuneration-sharing terms so they don't discourage other brokers from proposing the property to their clients.

What am I actually responsible for?You take care of the parts of selling your home that don't need your broker.

That includes getting your home ready, booking and paying for professional photos and a floor plan, providing the property documents your broker needs, handling buyers who come directly through you and choosing any additional places you want to promote your home. Your broker takes care of the brokerage work included in the service you choose.

What am I giving up compared with a traditional full-service broker?You take on more of the work yourself.

Your broker doesn't host open houses, provide your photos and floor plans or run advertising and marketing campaigns for your home. You handle buyers who come directly through you and any additional promotion you choose to do yourself. Your broker still does the brokerage work included in the service you choose. That's the trade: you stay more involved instead of paying your broker to do everything.

What does this actually cost?

How much does it cost?$500 for an evaluation. $2,000 for a Centris listing. $5,000 for Offer to Notary. Or $7,500 for all three.

Each service has a fixed price: Broker's Evaluation — $500; Centris Listing — $2,000; Offer to Notary — $5,000. Choose all three and the total is $7,500. Plus applicable taxes.

Why use fixed prices instead of a percentage commission?Because the price isn't tied to your home's value.

Go.Prop.Immo uses fixed prices for defined services. You choose the services you need. You take care of the parts you can do yourself. Your broker takes care of the professional work included in the services you choose. Your home selling for more doesn't automatically make those services cost more.

What's the catch?You do your part. Your broker does theirs.

You're more involved than you would be with a traditional full-service broker. You arrange and pay for professional photos and a floor plan. There are no broker-hosted open houses. You handle buyers who come directly through you and any additional promotion you choose to do yourself. Your broker takes care of the professional work included in the services you choose. Nothing mysterious. The fixed price comes with a different division of the work.

Is $7,500 really the total?For all three Go.Prop.Immo services, yes. $7,500 plus applicable taxes.

That includes Broker's Evaluation, Centris Listing and Offer to Notary. There can still be other costs that come with selling a home, such as notary fees, a new certificate of location, special reports, repairs or mortgage-related costs. If a buyer's broker is involved, the amount offered to that broker is also separate.

Do I still have to pay a buyer's broker?You choose the amount offered to a buyer's broker.

If a buyer's broker is involved in the sale, their remuneration is separate from your Go.Prop.Immo service. You choose the amount offered. As we explain above, that amount matters because remuneration-sharing terms can affect whether other brokers are willing to propose the property to their clients.

When do I pay?It depends on the service.

For Broker's Evaluation, you pay when your evaluation is ready. For Centris Listing, you pay when your home is live on Centris. For Offer to Notary, you pay when the sale is completed at the notary and the deed of sale is signed.

What happens if my home doesn't sell?It depends on which services you used.

Your Broker's Evaluation and Centris Listing are completed services, so those prices are still payable even if your home doesn't sell. Offer to Notary works differently. Whether the $5,000 is payable depends on why the transaction didn't close. If the transaction ends because a legitimate condition in the offer is not met, there is no Offer to Notary fee. Other situations may be treated differently under your agreement.

Is broker commission negotiable?Yes. Broker commission is negotiable.

There isn't one mandatory commission percentage that every seller has to pay. Go.Prop.Immo simply uses a different model: fixed prices for the services you choose instead of pricing those services as a percentage of your home's selling price.

Is this actually legitimate?

Am I actually working with a licensed real estate broker?Yes. Brokerage services are provided by a licensed real estate broker.

When you use a Go.Prop.Immo brokerage service, the professional brokerage work is performed by a licensed real estate broker. Go.Prop.Immo is the service platform. It isn't itself a real estate agency.

Who actually represents me? →
Are these the same OACIQ forms used in a traditional brokerage transaction?Yes. Your brokerage contracts and transaction documents use the applicable OACIQ forms.

Your broker prepares and explains the OACIQ forms required for the brokerage work you've chosen. Go.Prop.Immo may also use documents to explain the service you're buying, but those don't replace the OACIQ forms used for the brokerage transaction.

What you'll sign →
Is my broker insured?Yes. Your licensed broker is backed by professional liability insurance.

Professional liability insurance protects against certain faults, errors, negligence or omissions made while carrying out professional brokerage activities. It doesn't insure your home or guarantee the outcome of your sale.

How can I verify my broker's licence?Look them up in the OACIQ Register of Licence Holders.

The OACIQ keeps a public register where you can verify whether a real estate broker holds a valid licence and see information about their right to practise.

OACIQ Register of Licence Holders
So what exactly is Go.Prop.Immo?Go.Prop.Immo is a different way to buy the real estate services you need when selling your home.

Go.Prop.Immo isn't a real estate agency. It brings fixed-price real estate services together under one system so you can choose where you want professional broker help and where you want to stay involved yourself. The actual brokerage services are provided by the licensed real estate broker identified in your brokerage documents.

What do I actually have to do?

What am I responsible for?The parts of selling your home that don't need your broker.

You get your home ready, arrange your photos and floor plan, provide the documents your broker needs, make your home available for visits and handle buyers who come directly through you. You can also promote your home beyond Centris if you want to. Your broker takes care of the professional work included in the services you choose.

Do I have to take my own photos?No. You arrange and pay for professional photos and a floor plan.

Professional photos and a floor plan are part of the normal listing process. You book and pay for them, then your broker reviews the material for your Centris listing.

Do I have to show my home myself?Sometimes. It depends on where the buyer comes from.

Visits work three ways:

  • A buyer who comes through you → you handle the visit.
  • A buyer represented by another broker → their broker handles their buyer.
  • A buyer who contacts your broker directly → your broker handles that buyer's visit.
Do I have to host open houses?No.

There are no broker-hosted open houses with the Centris Listing service. You don't have to hold an open house yourself either. If you choose to hold one, that's something you manage.

Do I have to market my home myself?Your broker gets your home on Centris. Anything beyond that is your choice.

Your broker gives you approved listing material you can use to promote your home beyond Centris. You can share it on Facebook Marketplace, Kijiji, DuProprio, social media, with a yard sign or through your own network. Or you can rely on your Centris listing.

What if I don't want to do some of this myself?Then Go.Prop.Immo may not be the right fit for you.

This model works because you stay involved in parts of the sale that don't need your broker. If you want a broker to take care of every part of selling your home, a traditional full-service brokerage service may be a better fit.

How much time will this actually take me?It depends on your home and how involved you choose to be.

There isn't one honest number we can give every seller. Preparing your home and documents takes some work. Visits depend on buyer interest. Additional marketing depends on how much you choose to do yourself. The point isn't that selling your home takes no time. It's that you can decide which parts are worth doing yourself and where you want your broker involved.

What happens when I get an offer?

What happens when I get an offer?If you're using Offer to Notary, your broker takes it from there.

Your broker reviews the offer with you, explains the terms and takes care of the offer and counter-offer process using the applicable OACIQ forms. You make the decisions. Your broker takes care of the professional work.

Offer to Notary →
Who negotiates the offer?Your broker negotiates for you. You make the decisions.

Your broker discusses the offer with you, explains your options and negotiates the terms based on your instructions. You decide what you're willing to accept, reject or counter.

What if I get more than one offer?Your broker helps you compare them and decide what to do.

More than one offer doesn't automatically mean you simply take the highest price. Your broker helps you understand the price, conditions, dates and other terms of each offer so you can decide how you want to respond.

What happens after I accept an offer?Your broker keeps managing the transaction.

An accepted offer isn't the end of the process. Your broker manages the conditions and due diligence, follows the file as it moves forward and oversees the transaction through the signing of the deed of sale.

What if there are conditions—financing, inspection or something else?Your broker manages the conditions with you.

Your broker keeps track of the conditions in the offer, the documents and follow-up they require, and what happens as each condition is fulfilled or otherwise resolved. You stay informed and make the decisions that belong to you.

What if something changes after the offer is accepted?Call your broker. They'll help you deal with what changed.

Things can change between an accepted offer and the notary. Your broker reviews what happened, explains what it means for the transaction and takes care of the brokerage documents and follow-up required within the Offer to Notary service. Some situations may also require advice from another professional, such as a notary, lawyer or building expert.

Is this right for me?

Is Go.Prop.Immo right for every seller?No.

Go.Prop.Immo works best when you're comfortable staying involved in parts of your sale. If you want a broker to take care of everything for you, a traditional full-service brokerage service may be a better fit.

Who is Go.Prop.Immo built for?Sellers who want to stay involved and choose where they need a broker.

You might be comfortable preparing your home, meeting some buyers or promoting your listing yourself—but still want professional help with things like your property value, Centris listing, offers, negotiations and closing. Go.Prop.Immo lets you choose that help without automatically paying for everything as one traditional full-service package.

What if I want my broker to do everything?Then this probably isn't the right service for you.

Go.Prop.Immo is built around a clear division of responsibilities between you and your broker. If you want your broker to manage every part of the sale, you'll probably be better served by a traditional full-service brokerage service.

Do I have to know which services I need before I start?No.

Tell us about your home and what you need. We'll help you figure out where to start.

Can I start with one service and use another later?Yes. You only pay for the services you use.

You don't have to pay for all three services at once. You might start with a Broker's Evaluation, add a Centris Listing when you're ready to sell, or come to us for Offer to Notary when you already have a buyer. If you list with Go.Prop.Immo, the Offer-to-Notary agreement is signed as part of your listing documents and applies if you reach that stage of the sale.

HOW IT WORKS · How Go.Prop.Immo works, start to finish

Sell your home. Choose where you need your broker.

You don't have to buy everything at once. Go.Prop.Immo breaks the sale into three services.

  1. Understand what your home is worth.

    Broker's Evaluation — $500

    Your home and market are reviewed, and you receive a broker-prepared opinion of value.

  2. Put your home on Centris.

    Centris Listing — $2,000

    Your broker prepares and manages your brokerage listing on Centris. You stay involved with the parts you can do yourself, like preparing your home, arranging photos and handling buyers who come through you.

  3. Get from offer to notary.

    Offer to Notary — $5,000

    Your broker takes care of offers and counter-offers using OACIQ forms, negotiates the terms, manages the conditions and due diligence, and oversees the file through the signing of the deed of sale.

Start with the service you need.

If you use all three services, the total is $7,500 plus applicable taxes.

You choose the help you need based on where you are in your sale.

If you list with Go.Prop.Immo, you'll also sign the Offer-to-Notary agreement. You only pay that $5,000 service if it applies to your sale.

COMMISSIONS · How commissions work in Quebec

A percentage isn't the rule.

When you sell with a real estate broker in Quebec, there isn't one mandatory commission rate.

Broker remuneration is negotiable.

With a traditional percentage model, the amount you pay is usually calculated using an agreed percentage of the selling price.

For example:

$750,000 sale × 5% = $37,500Plus applicable taxes.

That example does not mean every broker charges 5%. The percentage and terms are agreed between the seller and their broker.

What about the buyer's broker?

If another broker represents the buyer, your brokerage contract can provide for part of the remuneration to be shared with that broker.

The amount offered matters. OACIQ requires reasonable remuneration-sharing terms so they don't discourage other brokers from proposing the property to their clients.

Go.Prop.Immo works differently.

Instead of tying the price of our services to the selling price of your home, each service has a fixed price:

  • $500 — Broker's Evaluation
  • $2,000 — Centris Listing
  • $5,000 — Offer to Notary

All three: $7,500 plus applicable taxes.

If a buyer's broker is involved, the amount offered to that broker is separate.

The difference is simple.

Percentage model:
what you pay changes with the selling price.
Go.Prop.Immo:
the price of the service stays the same.

Your home can be worth more without automatically making the service cost more.

PAPERWORK · What you'll sign

Know what you're signing and why.

Real estate comes with paperwork. Your broker's job is to explain the documents you're signing and what they mean.

When you list your home

Your broker prepares the applicable OACIQ brokerage forms for your Centris Listing.

These documents set out the brokerage relationship, the services being provided and the terms you've agreed to.

Your broker reviews them with you before you sign.

You'll also sign the Offer-to-Notary agreement as part of your listing documents.

When you receive an offer

If you're using Offer to Notary, your broker takes care of the applicable OACIQ forms for offers and counter-offers.

They explain the terms, conditions and dates before you decide how you want to respond.

You make the decision. Your broker takes care of the paperwork.

As the sale moves forward

There may be more documents as conditions are fulfilled, changed or otherwise resolved.

Your broker prepares or reviews the brokerage documents required within the service and keeps you informed as the transaction moves toward the notary.

Go.Prop.Immo documents

You may also receive documents that explain the Go.Prop.Immo service you're buying, its price and what's included.

Those documents do not replace the OACIQ forms used for the brokerage transaction.

The important part

Don't sign something you don't understand.

Ask questions. Your broker is there to explain the brokerage documents before you make your decision.

SELL YOUR WAY · How to sell your home yourself—with Go.Prop.Immo

Do the parts you can. Bring in your broker where you need one.

Selling your home yourself doesn't have to mean doing everything alone.

With Go.Prop.Immo, you can stay involved in your sale and use a licensed broker for the parts where you want professional help.

Start with the value

Not sure what your home is worth?

Use Broker's Evaluation to get a broker-prepared opinion of value before deciding what comes next.

Get your home on Centris

Want to manage more of the sale yourself but still reach the professional real estate market?

Use Centris Listing.

Your broker prepares and manages your Centris listing. You can prepare your home, promote it yourself and handle buyers who come directly through you.

Already found a buyer?

You don't need a Centris listing just to get help with the transaction.

Use Offer to Notary.

Your broker takes care of the offers and counter-offers using OACIQ forms, negotiates the terms, manages the conditions and due diligence, and oversees the file through the signing of the deed of sale.

You're still selling your home.

You're simply choosing where you want to do the work yourself and where you want a broker involved.

DIY control. Centris when you want it. A licensed broker where you need one. Fixed prices.

YOUR BROKER · Who actually represents me?

Go.Prop.Immo is the service. Your broker represents you.

Go.Prop.Immo isn't a real estate agency.

It's the system you use to choose and buy the real estate services you need.

Your broker does the brokerage work.

When your service includes brokerage work, that work is performed by a licensed real estate broker.

Your broker prepares and explains the applicable OACIQ forms, performs the brokerage work included in your service and carries the professional responsibilities that come with their licence.

Your brokerage documents matter.

Your brokerage documents identify the licensed broker and, where applicable, the real estate agency involved in the brokerage relationship.

Those documents—not the Go.Prop.Immo brand—establish the brokerage relationship.

You can verify your broker.

You don't have to take our word for it.

You can look up your broker in the OACIQ Register of Licence Holders and verify their right to practise.

The simple version

Go.Prop.Immo gives you the service model.

Your licensed broker provides the brokerage service.
