Residential Home Sales in London, Ontario
Residential home sales covers the agents and brokerages who help people buy or sell houses, condos, and townhomes across London, Ontario, from Old North and Wortley Village to Byron, Hyde Park, and the newer subdivisions out toward Lambeth. That work includes pricing a home correctly for its street and school catchment, staging and listing photography, running showings and open houses, negotiating offers, and managing the paperwork through to closing. On the buy side, it means finding listings that match a budget, writing competitive offers in a market that can shift quickly by neighborhood, and coordinating inspections, financing conditions, and lawyers.
With 288 agents and brokerages active in the city, the range in experience and results is wide. A good agent should know recent sold prices on your specific block, not just the citywide average, and should be upfront about commission, marketing plan, and timeline. Ask how many deals they closed in your target neighborhood in the last year and how they price against comparable homes that didn't sell.
Our scoring weighs review volume and consistency, responsiveness, and how an agent's track record holds up over time, so you can compare across all 288 options on the same basis. See the full ranked list of real estate agencies and read our methodology for how the scores are built.

Common questions about residential home sales
- How much does it cost to sell a home with an agent in London, Ontario?
- Commission is negotiable and varies by brokerage, but total commission (split between listing and buyer's agents) is typically in the range of 4-5% of the sale price, paid by the seller at closing. Buyers generally don't pay their agent directly, since that commission is usually covered through the transaction.
- How often do people typically buy or sell a home?
- Most homeowners move every 7 to 10 years on average, though this varies with life changes like growing families, job relocation, or downsizing. First-time buyers and investors may transact more frequently.
- What should I expect during the selling process?
- A typical timeline includes a pricing and prep consultation, professional photos, listing on the MLS, showings or an open house, offer negotiation, and then a conditional period for inspection and financing before closing. In a balanced London market this can take anywhere from a couple of weeks to a couple of months from listing to accepted offer.
- How can I judge whether an agent is good before hiring them?
- Look at their recent sold listings in your specific neighborhood, ask for references from past clients, check how quickly they respond to inquiries, and compare how their listings' final sale prices tracked against original asking price. Consistent, verifiable results in your area matter more than overall years in business.
