I would assume buyers are comparing hard and price accordingly.
If you are planning to sell and hoping the market will do the heavy lifting for you, I would reset that expectation now. With 234 active listings in Chestermere, AB last month, buyers had enough options to be selective, which means sellers need a sharper plan.
Over the previous 30 days, Chestermere, AB recorded 62 sales and 134 new listings, with total supply at 3.77 months. The typical residential benchmark price was $707,900, and successful deals closed at 97.5% of asking, which tells me buyers are active, but they are paying attention to relative value. That puts pressure on your presentation and price positioning. In a market with this much available choice, buyers can skip homes that feel overpriced, unfinished, or difficult to understand from the first impression. Handle the obvious repair list before photos and showings. Set the asking price where buyers can justify engaging, not where you hope negotiation might begin. Make your listing easy to say yes to. That is how you keep leverage longer.
