Denise, who was my accountant, contacted me to help her and her  husband Dave purchase a condo for her mom, preferably in Pickering.



After asking Denise questions on what they wanted, we took their  resulting buyer profile and entered them into our custom Homehunter  program.



Kelly was assigned to work with Dave and Denise and in less than 2 months, she found the perfect condo apartment for them in one of the  nicer buildings in the GTA, a Tridel-built condo on Valley Farm Road in  Pickering.



An offer was submitted and accepted at 95% of the asking price,  which is almost unheard of. When we talk to our buyers at our initial  meeting, we try to find out as much info as possible, so when  preparing an offer, we may use some of that info to give our clients a  competitive edge. For instance, if they have a lot of money saved, we  could submit a larger than usual deposit (say $100,000 or more), which  could sway the sellers in a multiple offer. In this case, Dave and  Denise had no problem with a very quick close, which the seller  preferred, hence the great purchase price.



Unfortunately, less than a year later they called to say they needed to  sell the condo. I was the lead agent for the listing and although it was  basically the same market, sold the unit 7% more than what they paid for it! Part of how we were able to do that was buying it for less, and  also by using our Home Selling System to sell for more.

 

Denise and Dave must have been happy with the job we did for them  because they then asked us to help their first-time buyer son and his  girlfriend get into the market, which we were able to do.



See below what they had to say about working with the Brian Kondo  Real Estate Team:




Dear Brian,



Denise and I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for  representing us on the sale of our condominium.



We were very pleased with the quality and level of service  provided by you and your team.



From our initial meeting at the condominium through  closing, the level of service surpassed our expectations.



The pictures and video on the internet, the advertising, the  weekly calls and monthly summaries, keeping us informed of  showings and the offer process were all handled with the  utmost professionalism.



We would not hesitate in recommending you to our family,  friends and neighbours and you may certainly use us as a  reference.



Thanks again for making our selling experience as smooth  and pleasant as possible.



Yours truly,




Dave & Denise





There’s a lot more to assisting people buy one of life’s biggest investments  than just picking a home to show, typing up an offer and presenting it.


If you are looking to buy in the next little while and would like us to help you  buy for less, using The Brian Kondo Home Buying System like we did for  Dave and Denise above, please reach out by calling me at 905-683-7800.
