Last week was one of the most amazing and challenging couple of days I have had in business yet. I spent 2.5 days with 1 set of buyer clients who flew into the Guelph area from out of province. Our goal was to find and buy a suitable home for them in the Guelph area. This may sound exciting and easy, but remember - the Guelph Real Estate market has been flying steadily the last 6 weeks or so, so our best options had already been snapped up. So a list was made, areas like Grange Road area , Kortright Hills , Pine Ridge and West End Rec centre were chosen and off we went. By end of day 1 we had shopped both Guelph and Cambridge. Day 2 had us seesawing between Cambridge and Guelph again, as there appeared to be better value for the money in Cambridge. Thankfully a bank-owned property was listed and we saw it within 2 hours. It stayed at the top of the list all day and that evening we placed an offer. Banks like to have 48 hours to consider all offers, but we had an accepted offer back with 12 hours ! EXCELLENT - However, our search had continued and we had also had a good second choice and third choice - you never know how inspections and mortgage approvals go.
Today is the inspection, and the clients fly home tomorrow. We expect to waive all conditions, and make this a firm offer by Friday ! The most exciting part for me ? Watching our buyer clients stick to their guns and follow the practical guidelines they needed to make the best choice. Congrats to C & S - Cambridge is lucky to have you !
