The action

The seller purchased this condo in early 2021 for $1.305-million, and Dennis Sepulveda was the listing agent at the time. More than two years later, she asked Mr. Sepulveda to sell it for her. She had it painted and professionally staged but didn’t do any updates during the time she owned it.
“As soon as it hit the market, we started getting inquiries. We had a busy week,” says Mr. Sepulveda, who estimates he showed it to 40 parties.
He received two offers on a designated offer day.
What they got

The building has a bike room, exercise room, clubhouse, sauna, steam room and storage. The unit comes with two underground parking spaces. Pets and rentals are allowed and Granville Street transit and shops are within walking distance.
The agent’s take
Re/Max Crest Realty
“Based on the interest and price point, we were expecting more,” says Mr. Sepulveda. “However, two [offers] were enough to negotiate and get an over-asking sale. The seller made a $125,000 profit in a short amount of time and was happy with the results.”
The sale completed on Oct. 11.
