Cheers to another trip around the Sun ๐ŸŒž ๐ŸŽ‚๐Ÿฅฐ

Taking a moment be grateful, to reflect, appreciating life the way it was designed.. ๐Ÿ™

I fell in love woth this quote " Forgive yourself for not knowing earlier what only time could teach you"

Outgrowing versions of myself that felt static, unlearning old habits that no longer make sense and stepping into grace, kindness, integrity, purpose, character and joy.

Here's to new beginnings, new adventures, forever learning, vibrant energy and abundance. โค๏ธ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ™

๐Ÿ˜Upsizing in this market requires strategy and proper planning.๐Ÿ“Š

My client was tired of the high-rise condo apartment ๐Ÿข lifestyle.ย  She wanted a larger space, more storage and a quieter neighbourhood.๐Ÿ˜

The dilemma: Should she sell her condo first or buy her townhome first?๐Ÿค”

It depends on the market.ย  ๐Ÿ“ˆ Does she need the money from her condo in order to purchase her new townhome?ย  And currently, we are in a heavy buyers market with lots of inventory. ๐Ÿ 

My advice: Do the harder thing first.โ—๏ธ

In this case, itโ€™s selling her condo.

I gave her very realistic expectations that selling her condo will not give her much profit.ย  ๐Ÿ˜ฌ However, she can also purchase her townhome at a lower price point.ย  So this helps offset the pricing gap between the two properties, where she can save more on the absolute dollar amount ๐Ÿ’ฒon the higher price townhome.ย  For example, a 10% drop on a $1M sale ($100k loss) coupled with a 10% drop on a $1.5M purchase ($150k savings) results in a $50,000 net gain. ๐Ÿ’ฒ๐Ÿ’ฒThatโ€™s exactly what we did.

We ended up scoring this beauty of a townhome in an exclusive neighbourhood backing onto a golf course. โ›ณ๏ธ We strategically performed all our due diligence and my client never looked back. ๐Ÿ˜

๐Ÿก Just purchased! ๐Ÿข

In this current market, condos๐Ÿข are the talk of the town.ย  It's true there is a lot of inventory and because of this, condo prices have dipped due to so much competition.ย  ๐Ÿ“‰ Working with a buyer client now allows for more negotiating power ๐Ÿ’ช and ability to do our due diligence. ๐Ÿ’ก

But it comes with a different set of challenges: buyer's fatigue, choice overload, and analysis paralysis. ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ

When it comes to first time home buying, I asked my client to differentiate between "must haves" and " nice to haves" and what is important to her.ย ๐Ÿ’ญ I know it can be confusing as there are a lot of variables to consider.ย  And it's okay if she changes her mind. ๐Ÿ‘

My process allow for my clients to feel fully supported, and fully acknowledged.ย ๐Ÿ™ I educate my clients on the different kinds of clauses and conditions that would allow us to prepare for unexpected situations.ย  I walk my clients through step by step, calming nerves and first time buying jitters.

In the end, through careful timing๐Ÿ•œ, patience, expertise of market conditons ๐Ÿ“ˆ๐Ÿ“Š understanding my buyer's sentiment, diligent negotiations with the seller's agent, we succeeded in securing a beautiful property that checked all the boxes. ๐Ÿ

๐Ÿก Just Sold ๐Ÿข

Condos in this market are a tough sell. ๐Ÿข We managed to sell ๐Ÿ’ฒ this stellar 1 + Den Unit in 2 weeks,ย  closed within 1 month and Sold for More than Asking!

Prior to listing this property, I advised my client J that condo prices are on a downward trend โ†˜๏ธ.ย  In order to sell in this market, you have to stand out from the rest and stand out from all the competition.

I told her prep work is needed: decluttering ๐Ÿ› , a fresh coat of paint, a deep cleaning ๐Ÿงผ๐Ÿชฃ, a good marketing strategy and a sensible pricing strategy.๐Ÿ’ก

As we were prepping the unit, another unit in the building came onto the market.ย  It was the exact same layout, with the same beautiful view, a couple floors down.ย  J was nervous and wondered with the competing units, would ours sell for what we want. I told her let's keep to our plan and see it through.ย 

It took us another 2 weeks of prep work to get the condo ready.ย  I told her proper staging ๐Ÿกand the first impression ๐Ÿคฉ of a condo is important for a buyer to visualize themselves living in the unit.ย  Within 3 days of our listing being on market, we had 2 offers! ๐Ÿ“‘

I made a point to befriend the condo manager at her building and worked with them to ensure the status certificateย  ๐Ÿ“œ is issued within the specified time frame.๐Ÿ“†ย  There was a bit of back and forth with satisfying certain condtions with the buyer agent and the buyer.ย 

In the end, through thorough research, a proper pricing strategy, an intentional marketing strategy, the property was sold in 2 weeks of listing and closed within 1 month. ๐Ÿข

In this tough condo market, a proper listing and pricing strategy is crucial for success. ๐Ÿ‘

Meanwhile that unit with the same layout that was a couple floors down is still on the market...๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ

Remember that heartwarming story I told of a couple H&D wanting to purchase a place for their elderly parents? When H&D bought their first home, her parents had put their savings together and helped them with their downpayment. Her parents are now retired and have been renting for quite a number of years. H&D's goal is to give back to her parents what they had given to them, a home to call their own. ๐Ÿ’• They enlisted my help to find the perfect home for her parents and it was a success!๐Ÿฅฐ

The whole family was thrilled! Truly humbled and grateful for a handwritten card and a gift!๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฅฐ (Scotch? How did they know?๐Ÿฅƒ๐Ÿคญ)

Through this experience, the biggest take-aways:

-Making memories
-Building stronger families
-Forming new friendships
-People come first

Truly blessed. ๐Ÿ™โค๏ธ
