MULTIPLE OFFERS AGAIN ~ SOLD OVER ASKING

Here we are at the end of July almost and no slowdown in sight.  Interest rates still at an all time low and housing market still going crazy.  Not enough inventory for the buyers.  Bidding wars are the norm now.   Most homes that are listed are holding offers until a certain date.  The key is to not hold them that long and not price it too high.  Sometimes this is backfiring on agents who are not pricing the home correctly in order to entice a multiple offer situation.

The benefit to the Seller is that it is done in a short period time - I usually do Thursday to Sunday or Monday - and then best offer wins... this last property had over 100 showings between Thursday and Monday...Multiple offers were registered and then "Best Offer" wins.

Word to the wise, if you are participating in a multiple offer situation, don't bring an offer conditional on financing and home inspection with 8 or more offers, you aren't going to get it and you are only increasing the value of this home by adding your offer in the mix.   

In this market, it is hard when there are so many players to win in a multiple situation like that .. so you need to scope out a listing that has been on the  market a while, maybe needs work, or overpriced and try your conditional on financing and inspection offer but not when a house has 7 or more offers... I feel bad for the agent and for the buyers waiting ... but that is the game of real estate right now.

Its tough to buy a home when you are constantly in a multiple offer situation. Last night was the same thing.  Seven offers.  One winner.  Happy to say my client was thrilled with the results and the winning Buyer Agent was as well.

If you are looking for an aggressive approach to selling your home and an up to date market evaluation, call a local full time Realtor .. or call ME... :)   Have a super week everyone... Mine is off to a great start.
Cheers !

A Town Called Ajax

Ajax - Bomb Girls

The Town of Ajax is a great family community and full of history.  I currently am on the the Committee for the Ajax Bomb Girls, Director of Social Media.   Ajax is the home to the DIL Munitions Plant which was located in the 1940's.   Global TV started a series called Bomb Girls after the real life stories from the plant.

On September 28th, Ajax Bomb Girls hosted a fundraising event to raise money for a monument dedicated to the women that worked at the munitions plant.  It was a fantastic evening.  We had the Mayor of Ajax and the Chair of the Committee was Ajax's own Regional Councillor, Colleen Jordan.  The event was a real hit.   Information about more fundraisers will be posted on our www.facebook.com/ajaxbombgirls page or at the Town of Ajax website.



DIL Plant, Town of Ajax



The original war time homes which are still there along Harwood Avenue bring much history to the Town.  Many of these homes have a story to tell.   It is an honour to work with such a great group of men and women who appreciate the history of the Town.

Ajax has grown now and has Costco, Home Depot, great schools and shops as well a beautiful lakeside park off Lake Driveway in South Ajax to walk or play.

When you are thinking of moving to Ajax, give me a call, I would be happy to help you with the history, the best pubs and restaurants as well as some wonderful shops that are one of a kind.

Ajax is home to Deercreek Golf and Country Club, where we hosted our Shell-A-Bration for the Ajax Bomb Girls and where many people have weddings and find great golfing.  There are excutive homes there that back onto the golf course and so much more.

North Ajax along Taunton Road is home to many new builders and plazas.  If you are looking for an affordable place to call home, consider Ajax.   It really is a little town that grew.

For more information on moving to Ajax or selling your Ajax home, please give me a call and I would be happy to meet with you and give you some insight on the neighbourhoods and the pricing.
