Selling a home can be complicated. There is a lot to do, from preparing your property for sale, to marketing the listing, to the negotiations and paperwork. We’ve created our Team Berkhout Bosse Selling Guide as a resource so you can get to know us better, and so we can help you navigate through the home-selling experience.

Back-to-You: We believe in giving back to others – in the care of service we provide and as valued change agents for our profession and in the Niagara community.
