Once, Twice, FOUR TIMES Sold!

Oh.... there were cuss words, tears, frustration and so much more! We sold this condo FOUR times!!

Offer 1 - bailed in the first 24 hours siting condo fees as the issue, but it was cold feet

Offer 2 - bailed due to cold feet

Offer 3 - couldn't get financing

Offer 4 - we held our breath till the bitter end and it went through!

Each time when I found out an offer was falling apart I made sure I had another one on the table ready for the sellers before I told them.... hoping to minimize the frustration.

To say that it was tough is an understatement. In my 11 years in this career I have never dealt with this before. These guys were put thru the wringer, and handled it so darn well. Thank you for keeping your cool, trusting me, and sticking it out. You are now SOLD!

Domestic Abuse Has Been Labelled An Epidemic

    MLS® active listings and sales rise in March to close out the first quarter of 2023

WINNIPEG, April 12, 2023 – Along with the number of active listings on the market, MLS® sales in March continued to grow from last month marking a sustained transition back to the type of market seen before the pandemic began. The number of active listings is up over last year but still has room for growth before meeting the levels seen before the pandemic began. Meanwhile, MLS® sales for March 2023 were below the record March sales totals in 2021 and 2022 and slightly above the levels seen before the pandemic.

Rate Hold

Easter Bunny delivered a late gift this year of another rate hold announcement. Maintaining the rate and not increasing it. They are happy with inflation and how it is coming down, so rates don't need to go up right now. A few other things need to happen to be happier with inflation rates and to reach the 2% goal, but for now, they are happy with the path we are going on.

So, enjoy this rate hold, smile that it didn't go up, and if you have any questions, let us know.

Local Business Of The Week - Wash Method Car Wash

Today we are at Wash Method, a new carwash that opened in River Park South... and I am smitten. Our family tried out this carwash the first week that it was open and I was super impressed with how well it cleaned the car. For some reason, I find with most car washes I always leave disappointed, but I wasn't with this one!

I started singing its praises right away and so shooting a video with them made perfect sense to help all of you know how amazing they are.

Congratulations To These Smiling Faces!

I truly wish you could see these smiling faces. These are the smiling faces of two amazing people who are about to do exactly what they want to do. To sell their home and be able to focus on other amazing things in their life and I couldn't be happier for them.

I loved our short time together, and can't wait to catch you on the gram. 😉

Local Business Of The Week - The Preferred Perch

The Preferred Perch is a favourite store of our kiddos, they absolutely love going there to take a look at the amazing selection of rocks and gems that they have. The staff are always amazing and kind and help them find exactly what their hearts are after.

Every time I am in the store I find something amazing, from rocks and gems to bird feed, to amazing tea!

The Recent President’s Gala

I hadn't been to the President's Gala in about 10 years, but the theme this year just looked like too much fun to say no.

@soldwithsandeep and his mom helped me out by lending me a Sari to wear for the Bollywood theme.

There was great food, great people, and great dancing... Sandeep showed me how it was done, and I learned the complete lack of rhythm and grace that I have.

@Staceyburrows danced her heart out and brought me so much joy during the evening, girl - you are next level and I loved being around you.

Buyers And The Bidding Wars

Dear buyers... Did you know that for over a month now bidding wars have been back in full swing?

After months of hearing that the market is down, crashed, doom and gloom, it is hard to shift your mindset and soak in the fact that they are happening.

Our Winnipeg is strong and stable, and so it is no surprise that they came back for us sooner than anywhere else.... but even the higher markets are starting to see it now too.

So, reach out, and schedule a time to talk with us so that we can strategize what it will look like for you to enter this market.

Local Business Of The Week - River Park Flooring

Local Business of the Week Episode 2!

River Park Flooring and I had so much fun creating this! (or rather our videographer had more fun making us do silly things). Either way, it was great to be in their space and learn more about them. Their staff is amazing and we have a lot of fun working with them on these videos.

Thank you for being a part of our video series! We love supporting locals and watching others thrive!
