What to look for
What the best Marlborough real estate agents do differently
01
They know established-community homes
Many homes here were built in the 1970s. They know which updates matter and how renovated and original homes compare.
02
They understand suites
Whether a basement suite is legal and registered with the City of Calgary, and what that means for value.
03
They know the streets
Homes near the CTrain, parks, schools or busier roads sell differently. They compare like with like.
04
They understand the location
The Blue Line CTrain, Memorial Drive, Marlborough Mall and quick access to downtown.
05
They price on local sales
Recent sales in Marlborough and nearby communities, adjusted for lot, layout, condition and location within the neighbourhood, not a city-wide average.
06
They stay with you to possession
Conditions, deadlines, your lawyer and the keys, handled without you having to chase anyone.
