About La Capitale Real Estate Network
La Capitale Real Estate Network ("La Capitale") is a leading real estate services
company in Quebec
Founded in 1991, La Capitale
has grown rapidly, outpacing competitors and increasing market share, to become
the fourth largest real estate network in the province.
Today, La Capitale has approximately 1,500 brokers and agents in more than 65 locations
in Quebec, located mainly in suburban areas and urban centres.
La Capitale is known for its avant-garde philosophy – a philosophy that puts
the client first in everything it does. Based on this philosophy, La Capitale has
developed a range of unique and innovative services that facilitate successful transactions
and provide buyers and sellers alike with a sense of security.
During the past five years, La Capitale has closed more transactions per agent than have its competitors
in Quebec, reflecting the effectiveness of the network's innovative services and
the ongoing training provided to its agents.
For sellers, La Capitale provides a written service guarantee describing steps the
agent will take to sell the property quickly at the best price possible. These steps
include listing the property on the Canadian MLS network and on the popular micasa.ca
site, as well as on
www.lacapitalesells.com which is widely advertised on television and in
newspapers and offers approximately 10,000 listings at any given time
The La Capitale website also offers visitors the services of 'Eureka', an assistant
for online buyers and sellers. Eureka serves as a matchmaker within La Capitale's
network between homes for sale and homes sought by buyers. For buyers, the website
also provides a powerful search tool including a personal search file, featured
homes and a listing of open houses.
For buyers, La Capitale offers the only after-sales service guarantees in the industry.
These include, for participating agents, the APEC free guarantee covering appliances
sold with the home as well as the home's plumbing, electricity and heating system
for a full year; and the MPG guarantee which guarantees mortgage payments in the
event of job loss for up to 12 months or $15,000. MPG applies to mortgages provided
by financial institutions recommended by La Capitale.
La Capitale also offers buyers coupons, gift certificates and/or discounts on products
and services for the home.
La Capitale's customer service, innovation, training and agent success attracts
new agents, thereby driving growth of La Capitale's network.
