What it Took to Sell this Sage Hill Condo

1309 450 Sage Valley Drive NW Sold Firm in 32 Days

Sage Hill remains one of Northwest Calgary's most competitive condo markets in the City with 5 months of available inventory so when we got a call from the owner of Condo 1309 we knew we needed a plan.

Here is exactly what we did ⤵️

Listing Preparation: This home had been a rental for a few years and needed a bit of love. A coat of paint lightened the space, while a deep clean made the home feel move-in ready. Remember: good preparation removes objections before buyers have a chance to make them.

Marketing For The Long Term: Agents get excited about getting a new listing, put it on MLS, post to Instagram and that's it; in one week, they have exhausted their marketing strategy and the listing quickly grows stale. Our strategy is built for the entire listing, not just the first seven days. Whether a home takes a week or a year to sell, our job is to keep creating attention and momentum.

Accurate, Data-Based Pricing: Our pricing strategy is straightforward and unemotional. Using data from comparable sales over the past 45 days and analyzing current market competition, we set the listing price at $312,500. This wasn't necessarily the price the seller was hoping for, but it was the price the market supported.

Virtual Staging: Condo 1309 was vacant and vacant homes don't show well online or in print. We had our editors virtually stage a few photos to ensure we caught attention online and in our print brochures. While keeping in mind that all important Hero Shot

Followed Up Like It Was Our job (because it is): We pounced on every showing, every inquiry and every whisper of someone looking to buy a condo in Sage Hill. If Condo 1309 wasn't the right condo for them we wanted to know why? Was it the price? Was it the location in the complex? Was there a funny smell we didn't notice? Our job is to listen to the market but if we aren't asking questions, who are we listening to?

And Here Are The Results You Won't Find Online ⤵️

• Conditional Offer after just 19 days on the market
• Firm Sale in 32 days on the market at 97.92% of our asking price
