A year after relocating to Toronto from Montréal and finding a wonderful home on Saddleworth Crescent in Oakville, an unexpected turn of events occurred. A Montréal employer proposed a new mandate and a promotion; an opportunity we couldn’t pass up even though we’d been here less than one year. We needed to pull off a successful real estate sales transaction and wanted to move as quickly as possible without losing the investment we’d made in upgrading the house and its property. We wanted our fair share of the upswing in property values generally. How could we possibly do this at a time when the market was rumoured to be sluggish, a time when most real estate companies and bankers were heralding a change to a more balanced market place with buyers sure to gain clout?
We turned to The Wayne Munden Team. This Team is well respected in the Oakville community and they have significant experience in the Bronte Creek area. In fact they represented the previous owners who sold us their house! We thought they had done a superb job of putting together the marketing package for this house. The house simply stood out as special in what was a crowded field of potential listings. In our judgment, The Wayne Munden Team represented the previous owners very well and negotiated shrewdly. We wanted all of that negotiating and marketing talent to be in our corner and as it turns out, our decision to work with The Wayne Munden Team was the winning strategy from day one.
Be it marketing brochures, postings to social media sites, or newspaper advertising, all was done quickly and professionally. Two agent open houses were managed a few weeks apart, and the calls for visits began to flow; music to any home vendor’s ears. It was impressive to watch as all of this unfolded in July when people are essentially on vacation. A month after listing our home, it was sold! Trust us, we didn’t give our house away, recovered all of our upgrade investments, a fair market appreciation, and then some. Establishing comparable sales prices for homes in our area was critical along with a snap of Wayne’s help. Our asking price was aggressive yet fair. We can’t overstate the pleasure we’ve experienced in dealing with The Wayne Munden Team. Both of us have an extensive experience in dealing with people across many industries. We’ve also bought and sold other homes before. We know it’s just not possible to fake professionalism, much less a genuine sense of caring for clients. Wayne and his team of professionals are winners. Put them on your side.
