Sell your Alberta home online, start to finish.
List free. Negotiate every term with the buyer directly — price, deposit, dates, conditions, and inclusions. Then pay one flat platform technology fee when your sale completes. It is set from your list price, and it never grows with what you sell for.

- Grows with your price, whether or not the work does
- You don't know the final amount until the sale closes
- You are bound by the listing agreement's exclusivity period
Total cost to you
$19,000
on a $500,000 list price
A flat amount you know first
- A flat dollar amount, published before you list
- Set from your list price, fixed when an offer is accepted
- No claim on your proceeds, and nothing owed unless your sale completes
- You control every offer, and there is no exclusivity period
Total cost to you
$2,250plus GST, on a $500,000 list price
How this is calculated. The comparison figure uses a commission structure of 7% on the first $100,000 and 3% on the balance, a structure commonly quoted in Alberta. Real estate commissions are negotiable and vary by brokerage and listing agreement — your actual figure may differ. RealEasy's platform technology fee is the flat amount shown for your price band, plus GST, payable only on a completed sale. Listing is free. This estimate is for illustration and is not financial or legal advice.
Whose interest a fee serves
On a $500,000 sale, dropping your price by $20,000 costs your listing agent about $150. It costs you $20,000.
Their share of any price change is a percentage of a percentage of a percentage: 3% of the change, halved with the buyer’s side, then halved again with their brokerage. A sale that never closes, on the other hand, costs them their entire share — about $4,750. That gap is why “let’s just take it” comes so easily.
When the fee is a flat amount, nobody’s pay moves with your decision. Holding out for another $20,000 costs RealEasy nothing, so nobody is quietly hoping you stop.
Both figures use the 3% rate that a commonly quoted Alberta structure applies above the first $100,000, and assume an even split between the two sides of the deal and again between the agent and their brokerage. Splits vary by brokerage agreement.
How a sale runs
The negotiation is the product.
List in minutes
Photos, price, and details. You sign the Platform Agreement and submit; the listing publishes once it passes quality review.
Compare offers on what they net you
Every offer in one list with your price, the deposit, the round, and the days left to respond. Counter as many rounds as it takes.
Sign, then hand off to your lawyer
Both sides sign through DocuSign from a phone. Your lawyer receives the signed agreement, its certificate of completion, and a round-by-round summary of the negotiation.

The record
Written down, and it cannot be rewritten.
An append-only history
Every offer, every counter, every revision is written to a history that cannot be edited or deleted. You can always show exactly what was agreed, and when.
Terms frozen at each stage
What gets signed is already settled. Each stage is captured in a write-once snapshot with a cryptographic hash, so the version you signed is the version that stands.
Verified on both sides
Everyone who lists a property or submits an offer is identity-verified before they can transact. You know who you are dealing with.
We never touch your money
RealEasy has no claim on your proceeds. Nothing is owed unless your sale completes, and the fee is never taken out of what the sale pays you.
Who does what.
Three parties, and only one of them makes the decisions. We would rather be clear about that now than have you find out later.
RealEasy
The platform
Listing, forms, the negotiation workflow, scheduling, e-signature, and the permanent transaction record. We are a technology company, not a brokerage, and we do not give real estate advice.
You
Every decision
Your price, your terms, which offers you accept, and what you counter. The platform gives you the tools and the information; the judgment is yours alone.
Your lawyer
The legal work
Reviewing your contract and closing the transaction. When you are ready, download the hand-off package to give them. Consult a qualified Alberta real estate lawyer.
If you are buying
A private sale you can actually verify.
Buying direct from an owner usually means taking their word for things. Here every seller is identity-verified, your offer is a structured form rather than an email, and the negotiation history is the same record they see.
Browsing and offering are free. Book showings from the seller’s published availability.
