Agent Mary Jo Vradis estimated that given the active market, setting a bid price a little below $ 1 million would maximize the number of potential buyers for this three-bedroom house in Aurora, a one-bedroom community about 50 miles north of Toronto.

“We were not going to price it low, but given the lack of supply and the fact that it supported green spaces, it was a chance to set a new precedent,” Vradis said. While it worked, her sales team managed 70 guests between two open houses. “It was just insane.”

Five offers quickly emerged, and the sellers interrupted the process by accepting a bid of $ 1.23 million.

“That price point was more comparable to a four-bedroom house,” said Mrs. Vradis, “but there were no four-bedroom houses backing up against green areas like this.”

The deal was complicated by the fact that both Mrs Vradis and the sellers were out of the country at the time. “We handled five preventative offers with our customers in a completely different country, and while I was in another country, and this is the first time we’ve done it. But it was good because it was a success, so it showed us , what we can do from a distance. ”

The main floor offers separate living and dining areas for social gatherings, while the kitchen opens out to the south-facing deck. The lower level recreation room also has doors that open to the rear terrace.

Upstairs, the main bedroom houses a walk-in closet and one of the residence’s three bathrooms.

“It’s in a good school district and there are lots of hiking trails, so it was a really nice, coveted neighborhood,” Ms. Vradis said.

“The house is in good condition and well maintained with some work as they had just built a 400 square foot deck from the back and it had a new kitchen.”
