A week later I posted and had many responses on the first day. There were multiple offers and the strongest offer won. We were lucky that we didn&#8217;t have any leases extended. The occupants were there for a long time for under market rents. Buyers recognized the potential and this was a well-maintained property. I had it priced in accordance to current rents with upside potential. Annette McDonald put her trust in me while I know she knew lots of other agents. I was very happy to come through for her. It meant a lot to her and to me too. It&#8217;s so important that everyone is happy at the conclusion of a sale. I do my best even though these transactions can be stressful and emotional. I try to keep the calm and everyone on a positive note if I can.

The market conditions were a Buyers Market and sell prices were flat.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They absolutely needed to sell their detached home quickly and get into something that would cost considerably less. Their home was a proverbial hoarders paradise. I personally paid to have the home decluttered, cleaned as well as I did landscaping for them so I could get the home Sell Ready.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I had my team stage the home.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even in the soft market, I got them very close to the list price in a short period of time.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once we had a firm deal, I then found them an awesome Town Home that was in their target area of Ladner, 5 minutes from their work. (This was tough because of a very limited supply of inventory at the price point they needed).<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because of the market conditions, I negotiated a deal well below the list price and thus saved them thousands.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All in all, a great sell price and a great purchase price.

It was such a positive experience for me when she took the time to get to know me and really familiarize herself with my property and the neighborhood which included showing me comparison properties so that she could offer her sound advice on the best list price and strategies to achieve the most positive outcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The consummate professional, Karen handled everything from gathering all the needed minutes from my strata, discussing tips with me that would show my condo in the best light, to showing up to all client showings early and prepared. Karen also took care of hiring a photographer to take photos that showcased my home in the most stunning way, highlighting the best features in each room. The brochure that she presented to clients featuring my home, made it look like a high-end show home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The photos sparked several interested clients right from day one and Karen started booking appointments the very next day. We had several showings per day and within a week of listing, we had multiple quality offers. Karen handled the multiple offers in the most respectful way going over each one of them with me and finally giving me the tools to decide for myself which one was the best to go with.&nbsp; The final sell price closed at 42,000 above asking price. What an amazing result.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>I would highly recommend Karen Conyers with 100% confidence that she is the realtor that will represent your listing and the sale of your property with the best results possible.<\/p><p>~Cori Young<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-dots\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Safar_Uddin\"><\/span>Safar Uddin<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.roomvu.com\/agent\/safar-uddin\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.roomvu.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Saffar-Uddin.jpg\" alt=\"Saffar Uddin\" class=\"wp-image-3489\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.roomvu.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Saffar-Uddin.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.roomvu.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Saffar-Uddin-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.roomvu.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Saffar-Uddin-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.roomvu.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Saffar-Uddin-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.roomvu.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Saffar-Uddin-24x24.jpg 24w, https:\/\/www.roomvu.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Saffar-Uddin-48x48.jpg 48w, https:\/\/www.roomvu.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Saffar-Uddin-96x96.jpg 96w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td>Oakwyn Encore Realty<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>604.671.3527<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.roomvu.com\/agent\/safar-uddin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Professional Profile<\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">safaruddinhomes@gmail.com<\/span><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Safar Uddin is a real estate agent with Oakwyn Encore Realty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Safar&#8217;s Testimonial<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Thank you for working with me in this endeavour.

So I gave him a quick intro and advice on how to use our site.He made it clear he had to downsize from his 3 bed condo to a 2 bed smaller condo in the new west area. In between that call, I&#8217;ve sent him some listings.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A couple of months later I called again and he was in an upset mood and I knew I had tread lightly, so I just gave him a quick rundown of the current market conditions in July 2019. Andy said don&#8217;t call me until I&#8217;m ready and I&#8217;m in a stressful situation. So I apologized and said I just wanted to help. He was firm that he didn&#8217;t want to deal with any salesman at that time. In my mind I thought this guy hates me after that call.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A few months later, I got an email from him in Oct 2019, he was ready to sell as well as buy and I had to compete against another realtor to earn his business. I prepared a market analysis for his property value and got my partner Jenny from Oakwyn Encore involved as well to help with the sales of his property and go house shopping for a smaller place in new west. He wanted to stay in the same neighborhood as his son goes to school nearby.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then again no communication till Jan 2020. Now finally he felt at ease with us both. We managed to find him a place he really liked in Feb 2020 and also sold his property quickly within a week and possession of a new place in Jun 2020. He finally exhaled and felt we took care of his needs well and it was one less thing for him to worry about. So what I&#8217;ve learned from this is, is that not everyone starts off a little &#8220;rough&#8221; on the phone for no reason. It was respectable that he disclosed his personal challenge and everything made more sense. It seems the old saying is true, &#8220;be nice to everyone because they may be going through personal challenges in their life right now.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-dots\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bernie_Myers\"><\/span>Bernie Myers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.roomvu.com\/agent\/bernie-myers\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.roomvu.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Bernie-Myers.jpg\" alt=\"Bernie Myers\" class=\"wp-image-3490\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.roomvu.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Bernie-Myers.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.roomvu.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Bernie-Myers-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.roomvu.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Bernie-Myers-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.roomvu.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Bernie-Myers-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.roomvu.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Bernie-Myers-24x24.jpg 24w, https:\/\/www.roomvu.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Bernie-Myers-48x48.jpg 48w, https:\/\/www.roomvu.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Bernie-Myers-96x96.jpg 96w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Highland Partners<br><\/span><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2077 Mountain Blvd.<br>Oakland Ca. 94611<\/span><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">510 333-6966<br><\/span><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.roomvu.com\/agent\/bernie-myers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Professional Profile<\/a><br><\/span><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">BRE # 0145363<\/span><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><iframe src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lvty-hncsDg\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bernie Myers is a Top Producing Real Estate Agent with Highland Partners a Bay Area Boutique Office with International Presence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bernie&#8217;s Testimonial<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Highly likely to recommend.
