The action
Agent Belinda Lelli projected her client’s three-bedroom house would take three to 10 weeks to lock in a serious buyer, based on recent home sales in the west end of Mississauga. Listed for $1,188,000, the home had no lack of suitors, including 40 guests at the first open house, but few had the wherewithal to purchase it.
“Many people thought they’d be approved [mortgages] for $1.1-million or $1.2-million,” said Ms. Lelli.
“They were coming back saying they were preapproved for $900,000 to $950,000. But we weren’t selling it for under $1-million.”
In negotiations with one buyer, the sellers only let $78,000 slide off the price of the 32-year-old home, knowing it had two bonuses: a high-end kitchen and a family room above the double garage.
“We were competing with several lower-priced offerings, and we were priced similarly to four-bedroom homes,” said Ms. Lelli.
“What sets this home apart is the true chef’s kitchen, which was completely reimagined by the owners, one of whom is a chef.
“The other unique feature is a loft-style, second-floor family room with cathedral ceilings, a gas fireplace, and beautiful laminate floors.”
