To My Dear Sellers, You Are Amazing!

Confession time - We had sat down and formulated the plan. We knew how the neighbourhood was behaving, homes were sitting, there were high days on the market, and homes there were overpriced were guaranteed to sit. I knew in my gut I needed to reverse it. We did not want to sit, this family could NOT go through more than one week of showings. I recommended a price that was reasonable for the area and one where I was confident that it would sell fast, get multiple offers, and not be one of the homes sitting on the market for weeks.

Then, as the clock was ticking and we were getting closer to hitting the market, I watched more and more homes sit. I asked my Realtor friends their opinions, and they said the game I was playing may be risky. I debated raising the price many times, but in the end, I had to give myself a little pep talk. One I would give my sellers if they questioned me and the process, and told myself to stick to the original plan. I legit said to myself "You know what you're doing, you're good at what you do, you got this"

I took a deep breath, and we launched. I am very happy I trusted myself, because exactly as planned we sold in 7 days, in multiple offers and were the only house that week to do so in the neighbourhood.

To my dear sellers, you guys are amazing. You worked incredibly hard to make this happen. I know it was hard in every single way, and I am thankful for all your hard work, and for trusting me fully. You are amazing.
