6. Love at first sight, sold on the first showing!
UBC condo attracts hundreds and sells in a day … by Jianni Fletcher
This exceptional living space is located in the vibrant UBC community of Hawthorne Place. 2 bedrooms, a den, 2 baths, 9ft. ceilings.
It was love at first sight for a delighted young buyer on her first viewing of this condo. There were 3 immediate offers and her ‘full price’ bid won out. The deal was finalized a now she is the proud owner of her dream hideaway!
Loving the ’spirit’ that we placed into our styled creation, she has purchased most of the furnishings. This is a prime example where the captivation styling, expert marketing, the right price and the unique location sell properties in lightening speed!
And this resulted in happy faces all around: the buyer, the seller, the realtors and the stylists.
Here’s a look at the transformation from when we first got our hands on it to our ‘finished product’:
Loary Yu (Buyer) I liked the space because it made me feel comfortable. It made me love life! I wanted it right away because of how it was styled: I had to have all the furnishings because without that, the space lacked that appealing spirit.
(買家)
我很喜歡這個空間因為它使我感到很舒適–它讓我喜愛在這裡生活! 我必須臃有所有的家具使這房子充滿它的吸引力
Alice Chang Amex Realty (Buyer’s Agent) With any new listings I have, I hope the homeowners have styling done to sell their home also. I was very impressed with the work done by the ‘Celebrate’ team. Even the inspector thought it was a new condo unit. I’m so glad that my client is very happy with her purchase.
(買方經紀)
凡我所買賣的房子 我都希望屋主有所布置其屋 應為它能使買家較快做出決定. 我很滿意“Celebrate” 的布置團隊–連驗屋師都以為這是間全新的公寓房. 我客戶對房子的喜悅也是對我的肯定.
Wendy Overby (Seller)
We couldn’t believe our eyes, how Celebrate Showhomes transformed a once very messy student space into a beautiful inviting space and it sold the next day. We were so impressed that we decided to have them take on our home of 20 years.
Ken Chouinard (seller’s agent)
The property was listed for sale Aug 12th and came on the MLS Aug 14th. The home was staged in order to give it the maximum appeal and achieve the upper end of the price range. The same identical unit one floor up (considered to be more desirable) was sold 3 months earlier. It took 98 days and a $20,000 price reduction to sell it. We had our first open house and showings on Sunday August 16th and had 3 offers and a full price sale as a result. Although the market had gone up we did considerably better than the previous sale. The result of staging enabled a higher than expected sale price and the sellers received 4 times their investment for staging.
