The action
Ceiling heights are at least 10 feet throughout, including in the basement.Re/Max Hallmark Realty Ltd.
When listing this three-bedroom home in the attractive Birch Cliff neighbourhood, agent Tommy Lioutas suggested an asking price slightly less than what comparable homes indicated was fair market value. Given a realistic sticker price, in less than a week two bids emerged. One was willing to slightly nudge their offer upward to take the home.
“Not too far away was a similar luxury home, and it didn’t sell on its offer night, so we did a different strategy than them,” Mr. Lioutas said.
“We were slightly under market value at $1.899-million with hopes that we could generate maybe two or three offers that would all be from qualified buyers, and hope to get a bit of a bidding war, which is what we did. And we were above our target range.”

“It was custom built in 2016, and my client did a lot of upgraded features, which made it stand out in the neighbourhood,” Mr. Lioutas said.
“It felt like a Beach home, but … we didn’t have the crazy Beach price.”
“It’s a lovely area with great schools, great parks and shops,” Mr. Lioutas said.
