Sell Your Cambridge Home for 1% | Modern Solution Realty

Sell Home in Cambridge for Just 1% Commission

Cambridge is Waterloo Region’s most affordable city — Galt, Preston and Hespeler each with its own core and a strong flow of buyers from the GTA. List your Cambridge home for 1% with Modern Solution Realty, save approximately $9,750 on the average $650,000 home, and get the same full marketing reach as a traditional 2.5% listing.

Why 1% Commission Works in Cambridge

Cambridge buyers are Kitchener-Waterloo tech workers, GTA families relocating for value along the 401, and local move-up households. They search MLS, Realtor.ca and HouseSigma and often tour on weekends from Toronto and Mississauga. A polished 1% listing performs exactly as well as a 2.5% one — without you giving up thousands at closing.

The Cambridge Real Estate Market

Cambridge is a city of roughly 140,000 at the junction of Highway 401 and the Grand River, formed from the towns of Galt, Preston and Hespeler. Galt offers heritage stone homes and a revitalized downtown, Preston and Hespeler have village cores surrounded by post-war and newer subdivisions, and the newest growth is in the east and south near the 401.

Toyota Motor Manufacturing, 401 access to the GTA, the University of Waterloo’s architecture campus in Galt and prices below Kitchener-Waterloo keep Cambridge in demand. Family detached homes and townhouses near the 401 move quickly.
