LISTING AGENT Ben Amzaleg/Magnum Projects
The Action: The seller of this two-bedroom unit at Park West Two had purchased it from the developer in 2005, so this was only the second sale. "The waterfront market has always been in high demand, especially in well-maintained buildings," says listing agent Ben Amzaleg.
"The type of buyer walking through the door was mainly end user in mid-40s and up."
What They Got: The south facing, two-bedroom-and-den corner unit in Yaletown has city and park views.
The 1,239-square-foot condo has floor-to-ceiling windows, gourmet kitchen with granite countertop, stainless steel appliances, a large private den, large balcony for entertaining, and hardwood floors, which were added by the seller.
The building features an indoor pool, hot tub, sauna, gym, squash court, theatre room, lounge, 24-hour concierge service and guest suites. The unit includes one parking stall and storage.
The Agent's Take: "The unit was on the market for eight days before it went into multiple offers and sold with a clean offer," says Mr. Amzaleg.
"I reached out to my existing data base [of potential buyers] and my website specializes in the Beach Crescent area … so we were able to get top dollar."
