--- November 9, 2026 · For Sellers · Tri-Cities # How I List a Home: My Listing Process, Step by Step What actually happens between your first call with me and the sign going up, and what happens after. Here's how I listen, prepare, price, film, launch and negotiate. You'll see the real drone reel, a live listing page you can click through, and three sales that show why the small details matter. By **Craig Johnston, REALTOR® (BCFSA Licence #187645)** · 47+ year Tri-Cities resident · Helping Tri-Cities families move up Royal LePage Elite West Aerial marketing · 74-second drone reel ## This is how buyers first meet your home. Drone footage from my listings, from Maple Ridge to False Creek and West Vancouver. Aerial shows what photos can’t: the street, the setting, the view, and how close the parks, trails and water really are. It’s often the first thing a buyer remembers about a home. Playing silently - **The approach** — the street and the neighbourhood, before a buyer ever parks out front - **The setting** — lot size, privacy, the view and the light - **What’s nearby** — parks, schools, trails and water, at true distance Flown where the lot, view or setting adds something to the story. [See how it sits on a live listing page ↓](#showcase) Quick Answer When I list a home, I start by **listening**: where you're moving, why you bought this home and what you loved about it, because the next buyer is often a lot like you were. Then we **clean and declutter**, and my stager gives her advice. I set the **price from homes that actually sold and the homes you'll be competing with**. I time the **photos, video, drone footage and 2D and 3D floor plans** for the best light, and your home gets its own property website. I write every word of the listing myself. **The sign goes up on Friday and the listing goes live on Tuesday around noon**, fully ready. I host every showing myself, with no lockbox on your door. Open-house guests sign in with a QR code that gives them a guided tour, a direct line to me and an automatic follow-up. Then I negotiate price, dates and terms **directly with each buyer's agent**. I pay for the photography, video, floor plans, reels, marketing and staging consultation. You pay for cleaning, and for staging if the home needs it.

The Tri-Cities figure covers my Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam and Port Moody listings only. "Final list price" is the asking price after any changes. Google rating as of November 2026. Past results don't predict future ones. **Up front:** This is how I work. It isn't a promise of any price or timeline. Every home, street and month is different, and some of my listings have sold under asking. I count those too. The sale figures below come from my own transaction records and match the listing pages linked from each story. The process, step by step - [It starts with listening](#listen) - [Clean, declutter, and a stager's eye](#prepare) - [Price it from proof](#price) - [A shared vision, or I won't list it](#vision) - [Photos, video and drone](#media) - [Floor plans: interactive, 2D and 3D](#floor-plans) - [Your home's own website](#website) - [Launch week: Friday sign, Tuesday noon](#launch) - [Open houses: always me, with a QR sign-in](#showings) - [Offers: hold firm on what matters](#offers) - [Three listings, three lessons](#stories) ## 01 It starts with listening The first meeting isn't about my marketing. It's about your family. Before I talk about price or photos, I want to understand where you're going and what this home has meant to you. These are the questions I ask: - **Where are you moving to, and when do you need to be there?** A move-up purchase, a downsize and a job move each need a different plan, and the dates often matter as much as the price. - **What made you buy this home?** The reasons you said yes are usually the reasons the next buyer will say yes. - **What have you loved about living here?** The morning light in the kitchen, the walk to school, the trail at the end of the street, the neighbours. Buyers can't see these in the MLS® data, so I have to tell them. - **What does daily life look like right now?** Kids, pets, work-from-home, and how much disruption you can live with while the home is on the market. A lot of the time, I'm selling your home to the same couple you were five years ago. They have the same young family, the same commute and the same reasons. So I don't just market square footage. **I market the neighbourhood and the lifestyle**: the park, the school, the trail, the view, the coffee shop you walk to on a Saturday. Then I build a plan around your goals and your timing, and we go to work. ## 02 Clean, declutter, and a stager's eye If there's one thing I always insist on, it's this: **clean the house and declutter it**. It costs the least of anything we'll do, and it changes how every photo and every showing feels. On every listing, my stager comes through the home. She's my wife, Malika, a professional home stager with Stagemasters Home Decor. A lot of homes don't need staging at all. Sometimes she suggests moving a few pieces, editing a shelf or swapping a lamp, and that's it. If a home does need staging, I've got you covered: the staging consultation is on me, and you get discounted staging accessories and access to a large warehouse of staging furniture. You can see her approach in [how to stage a Coquitlam home](/how-to-stage-coquitlam-home/). Shaughnessy Street: staged with the family's own furniture and a few added accents. Clear counters and simple styling. The kitchen photographs the way it lives. For the deep clean, I often recommend Obsession Cleaning Services, which also covers Coquitlam and Port Moody. I get no referral fee or any other benefit from them. I just like their work. A typical prep list, adjusted for each home: - A deep clean, inside and out, including windows - Decluttering counters, closets and storage, so every room shows its purpose - Small repairs and touch-ups: paint scuffs, burnt-out bulbs, sticking doors, dripping taps - Tidy landscaping and a clean entry. The front door is the first photo many buyers remember. - Depersonalizing where it helps, so buyers can picture themselves living there - A list of recent big-ticket work (roof, windows, furnace, hot water tank), because it answers buyers' questions before they're asked If an older home might raise inspection questions, we talk about whether a [pre-listing inspection](/blog/pre-listing-home-inspection-coquitlam-seller-guide/) makes sense. ## 03 Price it from proof I don't pick a number to win the listing. I show you two sets of homes: What buyers paid **Comparable homes that actually sold.** They're adjusted for the things buyers pay for: size, layout, lot, condition, view and location on the street. Who you're up against **Comparable homes on the market right now.** These are your competition. Every buyer who looks at your home is looking at them too, and they'll compare. Then we talk about direction. Where is the market heading over the next few weeks? Are more listings coming on? Are prices firming or softening? The goal is to **price smart without leaving equity on the table**. If the market is shifting, we don't want a price that looks fine today and is out of step two weeks from now. Chasing the market down with reductions is a harder road than pricing right at launch, and I explain why in [price reductions: strategy and timing](/blog/price-reduction-strategy-timing-coquitlam-2026/). If you'd like a higher number than the evidence supports, I'll show you exactly what we'd be competing against and what the sold homes tell us. It's your home and your decision. My job is to give you the clearest picture I can before you make it. If you want to test a price yourself first, use the [seller's pricing worksheet](/coquitlam-sellers-pricing-worksheet/) or read [how buyers tell a home is overpriced](/blog/how-to-tell-if-a-coquitlam-home-is-overpriced/). ## 04 A shared vision, or I won't list it This might sound strange coming from a REALTOR®, but I won't list a home if the seller and I see it differently. If we don't agree on how to prepare it, how to present it or how to price it, the listing becomes a tug-of-war, and buyers can feel that. So before you sign anything, I'll tell you plainly what I think the home needs and what I think it's worth. If we're on the same page, we go to work. If we're not, I'd rather say so up front than take the listing and disappoint you later. ## 05 Photos, video and drone, timed for the light Every listing I take, condos and smaller homes included, gets professional photography, video with drone footage, measured 2D and 3D floor plans and its own property website. I pay for all of it. **Timing is strategic.** Light, weather and season change how a home looks. In November, I'm already photographing homes we plan to list in March. That way we have the right light, green gardens and no snow, and the photos are ready the day we launch. **A home with a view always gets a twilight shoot**, because the hour after sunset is when city lights and mountains look their best. If a shot isn't right, we reshoot it. Whatever I believe will show your home at its best gets done. 947 Village Drive, Bowen Island. Shot on a clear day, because the view is what buyers are buying. The drone reel at the top of this page is made from my own listings. On every listing where the setting adds to the story, the drone shows the street, the lot, the view and how close the parks, trails and water really are. I often mark the home on the aerial so buyers know exactly where it sits. Bowen Island from the air, with the home marked. Then there's the video tour. It's a branded walkthrough, so out-of-town buyers, parents and the partner who couldn't make the showing can walk through the home too. Here's the one from Bowen Island: ## 06 Floor plans: interactive, 2D and 3D Every home gets measured floor plans. Buyers use them two ways: to explore the home on their phone, and to plan furniture before they write an offer. ### The interactive floor plan On your home's website, buyers tap any room on the plan and see its photos and its size. Press **"Walk me through it"** and it starts at the front door and moves room by room: foyer, living room, kitchen, and on through the home, with a "Next" button for each room. Buyers understand the flow of the home before they arrive, so the people who book a showing already like the layout. At an open house, guests use the same walk-through on their phone while they're standing in each room. ### 2D and 3D floor plans Every level is drawn in 3D with the square footage by floor, plus a measured 2D plan with room sizes. Bowen Island: all three levels in 3D, with square footage by floor. Shaughnessy Street: both floors of the townhome in 3D. ## 07 Your home's own website, and I write every word I write the listing copy and the REALTOR.ca remarks myself, every time. Nobody knows your home's story better than you, and after our first conversation, I know it too. A template can't tell a buyer about the afternoon sun on the deck or the five-minute walk to the elementary school. That story lives on your home's own property website. MLS® and REALTOR.ca are where buyers find your home. Your property page is where they fall for it. Try the one below. It's a real listing page, and it works the way it does for buyers. How your home will be featured ## See exactly what buyers will see. Every home I list gets its own property website on SoldByCraig.ca, with the media chosen to suit the home. It’s built around how buyers really shop: on a phone, usually in the evening, deciding which three homes are worth their Saturday. The listings that get chosen are the ones a buyer can understand without leaving the couch. Below is a live one, **#11 915 Fort Fraser Rise in Port Coquitlam**. It works the way it does for buyers: play the video, flip through the photos, tap a room on the floor plan. *soldbycraig.ca/listings/11-915-fort-fraser-rise-port-coquitlam/* [Open the live page →](/listings/11-915-fort-fraser-rise-port-coquitlam/) 1 / 32 Tap any room on the plan Main Floor **Kitchen** 11′3″ × 13′8″ Tap the plan to open it full size The video, photos and floor plans above are the real ones from the live listing page. ### Also on every property page - **Exterior gallery** with its own write-up: the street, the yard, the parking. - **Property facts** buyers would otherwise call about: strata fee and what it covers, taxes, year built, parking. - **Downloadable documents**, such as a schools, parks and transit sheet for the address. - **The neighbourhood** in plain words, including walking times to parks and schools. - **A private-tour request** that comes straight to me, so no enquiry sits in a call centre. - **Built for phones first**, and fast, because that’s where most buyers look first. MLS® and REALTOR.ca are where buyers *find* your home. Your property page is where they fall for it. Every portal listing and every social post points back to it. [Explore the live listing page →](/listings/11-915-fort-fraser-rise-port-coquitlam/) [See all current listings](/listings/) Live example: #11 915 Fort Fraser Rise, Port Coquitlam (MLS® R3165767), listed by Craig Johnston, Royal LePage Elite West. What each home gets depends on the home; aerial photography, for example, is used where the lot, view or setting adds something. On our first walk-through I’ll show you exactly what your listing will include. ### Who pays for what | Item | Who pays | |---|---| | Professional photography, including twilight shoots where they fit | Craig | | Video, drone footage and social reels | Craig | | Measured 2D and 3D floor plans | Craig | | The property website and all marketing | Craig | | Staging consultation with Malika | Craig | | Cleaning | Seller | | Staging, if the home needs it (with discounted accessories) | Seller | | Repairs or touch-ups we agree on | Seller | For the full picture of selling costs, including commission, GST on commission, legal fees and the mortgage payout, see [what it costs to sell in Coquitlam](/what-it-costs-to-sell-coquitlam/). ## 08 Launch week: Friday sign, Tuesday noon Launch timing is part of the plan. Nothing goes live half-finished. - Before launch **Everything is ready** Photos, video, drone, floor plans, the listing copy and the property website, all finished and checked. - Friday **The sign goes up** Neighbours and weekend drivers start talking. Anticipation builds before a single photo is online. - Tuesday, around noon **The listing goes live** Right when a lot of people check new listings on their lunch break. I load it myself, with my brokerage's approval. - Thursday, 6 PM **A one-hour sneak peek** If early activity calls for it, serious buyers get a first look before the weekend. - The weekend **Open houses** Guests sign in with a QR code, take the guided tour and send me their questions directly (step 09). Once it's live, it goes out through MLS® and REALTOR.ca, social media reels and my monthly email to Tri-Cities homeowners and buyers. The Thursday sneak peek only happens when the early interest is there: that's how Cougar Court had 15 groups through in one hour. Because I load the listing myself instead of handing it off to be entered for me, I control exactly what goes live and when. Buyers' first look is the complete picture, not a placeholder. For how timing works across the year, see [the best time to sell in Coquitlam](/best-time-to-sell-coquitlam/). ## 09 Open houses and showings: always me, with a QR sign-in Only me **I show your home myself.** Every open house and every private showing. I don't hand your home off to another agent or an assistant to host. No lockbox **No lockbox on your door.** Buyers' agents bring their clients, but I'm the one who opens the door, answers the questions and hears what buyers really think. At an open house, guests scan a QR code at the door. Here's what happens on their phone, using the system I built for my own listings. They can also use the floor plan walk-through from step 06 as they move through the home. 1 **Scan and sign in**The QR code opens a sign-in page for your home. It takes about 20 seconds. 2 **Welcome back, with confetti**Returning guests are signed in automatically and greeted by name. A second visit is a strong signal, and I know right away. 3 **Quick questions to me**One tap texts me: "Any offers yet?" "Monthly costs?" Guests don't have to wait for the crowd to clear. **Automatic follow-up** About three hours after the open house, every guest automatically gets a thank-you and a request for feedback, while your home is still fresh in their mind. **Feedback for you** You hear what real buyers said, not just a head count. **Save and share** Guests save your home and share it, so the partner who couldn't make it sees it that night. **REALTOR®-aware** Guests who already work with a REALTOR® say so, and I follow up through their agent, the right way. Guests choose whether to join my newsletter. The box is never pre-ticked. Concentrating showings into well-run open houses also means your family only has to get the home ready a few times, not every day. More on that in [do you always need an open house?](/blog/do-you-always-need-an-open-house-tri-cities-2026/) and [how showings work](/how-showings-work-and-why-some-homes-dont-sell/). As for keeping you in the loop, here's how two sellers described it: “We were kept informed daily sometimes multiple times a day as to what was happening… Our home sold in only 6 days with multiple offers.” Gerry & Aline Howitson, sellers · Google review ## 10 Offers: understand the people, hold firm on what matters I'm a negotiator at heart, and the work starts before the paperwork arrives. I talk directly with each buyer's agent to understand the offer and the people writing it. What matters most to them? Is it the dates, the deposit, the subjects or the appliances? I keep that line of communication open from the first call to completion. Small misunderstandings shouldn't sink a good deal. Give the win **Don't let the little things get in the way.** If the buyers want the garden shed or a slightly earlier possession and it costs you nothing, give it to them. Hold firm **Protect what matters.** Price, dates and the terms that protect your next move. An offer's terms can be worth as much as a slightly higher number. When there's strong interest, we may set an offer date. In a perfect world, sellers take offers about 5 to 10 days after listing. That gives buyers time to see the home, line up financing and put their best foot forward. And when a first offer is accepted, I keep talking with the other buyers. A signed backup offer has saved more than one of my sales. More on how this works in [multiple-offer strategy in BC](/bidding-war-multiple-offer-strategy-bc/).

We staged it with their own furniture and a few accents, so daily life wasn't turned upside down. Professional cleaners came in on the Friday so the family only had to get ready once, and every showing happened in two weekend open houses. Forty groups came through and we had five offers. The day after accepting the best one, I secured a backup offer. Four days later, the first buyer's financing fell through, and the sale moved straight to the backup buyer instead of going back on the market. **The lesson:** plan for the deal falling apart. A backup offer costs little to arrange and can save weeks. [Read the full sale story →](/blog/how-i-list-a-home-tri-cities/) Westwood Plateau, Coquitlam · Spring 2025 ### 2930 Cougar Court: a sneak peek, eight offers and a backup plan **$1,880,000**sold (asking $1,799,900) **8**offers **15**groups in one hour A five-bedroom view home on Westwood Plateau. As soon as the listing drew attention, I opened a one-hour sneak peek, and 15 groups came through. It sold the next day. Then the buyer's financing fell through. Because I'd stayed in touch with every interested buyer, I had a new offer the next day, with a backup behind it. **The lesson:** momentum is fragile. Stay in touch with every interested buyer, so a wobble doesn't become a relaunch. Ambleside, West Vancouver · 2022 ### 1872 Bellevue Avenue: from 14 months on the market to sold in 14 days **14 months**on the market before **14 days**to sell after the relaunch This home had been on the market for 14 months and had been taken off with no sale before the owner, Roberta, asked me to help. Same home, different plan: Before - On the market 14 months with no real traction - Constant price changes, no clear strategy - Cluttered presentation, unclear use of space - Taken off the market with no sale The relaunch - Waited about five months to time the market properly - Decluttered and lightly styled, not fully staged - Loft reframed as an office or craft room - Pre-marketed before launch - Photos, lifestyle video, drone and floor plans - Priced from demand and the competition “My West Vancouver home was staged to sell, and it did indeed sell in 14 days in a declining seller's market. Craig's marketing tools are amazing. The photographer and video cannot be beat. Craig has a very calm demeanor and made a stressful time feel manageable.” Roberta Shaw, seller · Google review **The lesson:** same home, different plan, different result. Timing, presentation and the lifestyle story made the difference. More sales and the decisions behind them are on my [signature sales](/signature-sales/) page. ## Your pre-listing checklist If you're thinking about selling in the next few months, here's what to start on now: - Write down why you bought the home and what you've loved about it. It becomes the listing story. - Decide where you're going next and the dates that work for your family. - Start decluttering one room at a time: closets, garage and storage first. - Gather receipts and dates for big-ticket work: roof, windows, furnace, hot water tank and renovations. - If you're in a strata, find your recent strata documents. Buyers will ask for them. - Note anything that needs fixing. Small repairs are cheaper before listing than as a negotiation point later. - Book a pricing conversation early. If your home has a view or a garden, we can photograph it in the right season, even months before listing. Want it all in one place? The free [seller's starter kit](/coquitlam-sellers-starter-kit/) and the [seller timeline](/coquitlam-seller-timeline/) walk you through each stage. ## Frequently asked questions ### Who pays for the photos, video and floor plans when I list with Craig? I do. Every listing gets professional photography, video with drone footage, measured 2D and 3D floor plans, social reels, a dedicated property website and all marketing at my cost, along with a staging consultation. The seller pays for cleaning, any staging the home needs, and any repairs we agree on. ### Do I have to stage my home to sell it? No. Many homes don't need staging. What every home needs is a deep clean and decluttering. My stager, Malika of Stagemasters Home Decor (my wife), walks through each listing and gives her advice. If staging would help, sellers get discounted staging accessories and access to a large warehouse of staging furniture. ### Why do your listings go live on a Tuesday around noon? The sign goes up on Friday to build anticipation over the weekend. The listing goes live on Tuesday around noon, when many people check new listings on their lunch break. It launches fully ready, with photos, video, floor plans and the property website all live together, and I load it myself with my brokerage's approval. If early activity calls for it, I hold a one-hour sneak peek on Thursday at 6 PM, then open houses on the weekend. ### How do you decide on a list price? I show you comparable homes that have actually sold and comparable homes currently on the market, which are your competition. Then we look at where the market is heading. The aim is to price smart without leaving equity on the table, and to avoid a price that's out of step with the market two weeks after launch. ### What does a property website include? Each home gets its own page on SoldByCraig.ca with a full-screen opening image, the price and key facts, a branded video tour, the full photo gallery, an interactive floor plan where buyers tap a room to see its photos and measurements, 3D and measured 2D floor plans, the neighbourhood, and a private-tour request that comes straight to me. ### What happens when buyers sign in at your open house? Guests scan a QR code and sign in on their phone in about 20 seconds. Returning guests are signed in automatically and welcomed back by name. The guest page walks them through the home room by room on the interactive floor plan, lets them text me quick questions like "Any offers yet?", and lets them save and share the home. Guests note whether they're working with a REALTOR®. About three hours later, every guest automatically gets a thank-you and a request for feedback, which I share with the seller. ### What happens if the buyer's financing falls through? I plan for it. After accepting an offer, I keep talking with other interested buyers and, where possible, secure a backup offer. On a Port Coquitlam townhome in October 2026, the first buyer's financing fell through four days after acceptance, and the sale moved straight to the backup buyer instead of going back on the market. ### Will another agent or a lockbox be used to show my home? No. I show your home myself, at every open house and every private showing, and there's no lockbox on your door. Buyers' agents bring their clients, but I'm there to open the door and answer questions. ### Will you take any listing? No. I won't list a home if the seller and I have a different vision for how to prepare, present or price it. I'd rather be honest at the first meeting than take a listing we can't agree on. ## Sources & Methodology The listing-record figures (average sale price vs. final list price, Tri-Cities average and median time on market) come from MLS® records of my own listings, 2021–2026, as tracked in my listing system.
