Success Stories

Spacious Thornhill Condo and Move West!
With retirement in the offing, our lovely clients had a singular goal: move closer to their adorable (and so far, only) grandchild who was located about two hours too far away. After mapping out a handful of possible locations, we got to work on preparing their beautiful condo to hit the market. 

These clients, like so many we deal with, asked whether they should sell first or buy first. We recommended they be further down the path to buying before listing for sale. We needed to be sure which towns, what kinds of properties, and what budget would meet their retirement goals. 

After some enjoyable and informative road trips, they got the answers they needed to feel secure in making an offer on a dreamy next home. This stunning renovated condo bungalow far exceeded their expectations, and was secured at a price that still left them a retirement nest egg. With the peace of mind of knowing where they were heading, our lovely clients finished preparations to ready their condo for sale. Having already downsized once, these clients knew all about the importance of presenting their property in the best possible light - especially when there were two other condos for sale in the same building! After decluttering, some paint touch ups and minor repairs, our professional stagers ensured every aspect of this condo would have maximum appeal. The team work paid off handsomely, with an over-asking sale in a bidding war that was created through diligent follow up with showing agents, two staffed open houses, and extensive online advertising.

They were on the market for a little over two weeks. What about the “competition” units for sale? Well, one of them eventually sold weeks later, and the other listing was terminated. The moral of the story is to create solutions for our sellers that bring them the most peace of mind while achieving their overall life goals.

Our amazing first-time buyer client knew a great opportunity when they saw it. Ideally located in Bayview Village, this studio condo boasted a full-sized balcony overlooking the peaceful interior courtyard, reasonable all-inclusive maintenance fees, and an updated interior with granite counters, new floors, paint and stainless steel appliances. After a few rounds of negotiations, we were able to save our client thousands of dollars off the list price, making this the right time for them to make a SMART buying decision. Congratulations on owning your first property at well under $500,000!

Congratulations for our lovely buyer client for snagging a great deal on this gorgeous end-unit townhome. Spectacular vistas await in this bright, spacious new home in the up-and-coming community of Mt. Albert. We are thrilled that you chose to work with us, and trust our guidance throughout the purchase process.

Congratulations to our clients on this well-earned win! Here's to many happy years in your new home!🏠🍾

Our lovely (and savvy) Buyer clients knew that summer was the perfect time to house hunt for a move-up purchase. They had their eyes set on a stunning home, but it was priced just a bit out of reach. However, thanks to some sharp negotiating skills, persistence, and a lot of strategic back-and-forth with the seller, they were able to secure their “forever home” in their dream neighborhood—and at a savings of more than $100,000!

From narrowing down the options, coordinating inspections, and navigating the complexities of the offer process, our clients trusted the SMART Realty Solutions team to handle it all. We couldn’t be happier for them as they settle into this gorgeous property, complete with a dream kitchen and plenty of space to create new memories. It’s moments like these that remind us why we love what we do—helping amazing people achieve their homeownership dreams!

Congratulations to our lovely Buyer client on securing this gorgeous penthouse condo in the coveted "Swan Lake" Community in Markham. 🎉🌳🌊⁠
⁠
We first met our client in 2018 on an in-person "Condo Market Tour" of Markham. At the time, it wasn't quite the right time to downsize, but as soon as it was, they reached out to the SMART Realty Solution Team to start the property search in earnest. 👍🏼⁠
⁠
Our client quickly zeroed in on the "Swan Lake" Community as the perfect place to retire without worry. They loved the incredible recreation and fitness facilities, the secure and lovely grounds, and being in a community of people at the same "age and stage" as them.⁠
⁠
This incredible unit boasts all they need, and more! Over 1400 square feet, plus a huge wrap-around balcony, 10-ft ceilings, and *two* parking spots. My client knew right away that this was a downsizing option they could get excited about. ⁠
⁠
We were so pleased to help them secure this gorgeous condo *significantly under the list price* and with the long closing, they desired. Our successful negotiation saved them tens of thousands of dollars and a ton of stress! 💰💰💰⁠​​​​​​​

Congratulations to our Buyer clients in purchasing this stunning condo Bungaloft in the resort-style adult community, Swan Lake, in Markham.⁠
⁠
As active seniors, C & D knew they wanted their next home to have fitness facilities, an indoor pool, and plenty of opportunity to enjoy outdoor spaces. Swan Lake was the perfect choice, naturally!⁠
⁠
They also required a unit with enough room to store sporting equipment and C's craft business supplies. This huge Bungaloft with its unbelievable loft area and basement perfectly fit the bill! ⁠
⁠
To find this "unicorn" property in a community with exceptionally low property turn-over, we went the extra mile and sent personally addressed letters to more than 75 bungalow and bungaloft owners to let them know we had a ready, willing and able buyer. When the opportunity arose, we jumped! ⁠

Our client was grateful that we worked to find a downsizing option without any compromise of their wants and needs for the future. And we were grateful to be trusted to create a happy "Win/win" outcome for everyone involved!⁠​​​​​​​

Congratulations to our lovely first-time Buyer Clients, M & S, in successfully securing an amazing starter home in the beautiful hamlet of Dundalk, Ontario. 🏡 🎉⁠
⁠
This cute newly-wed couple had to postpone their dreams of being homeowners for a year due to COVID, but are thrilled now that they waited.⁠
⁠
Our SMART Realty Solutions team was able to locate a home that ticked all their boxes, and negotiated a sale price UNDER ASKING, saving them tens of thousands of dollars. What an amazing wedding present to themselves and to their future together. 💌⁠
⁠
We wish them all the best and are overjoyed to see them through the buying process. ⁠​​​​​​​

Congratulations to our lovely client for securing this gorgeous waterfront condo under asking! Truly this is “SMART-sizing” without sacrificing space, luxury or convenience. 🎉⁠
⁠
With a wrap-around balcony, lake views, and high-end finishes, all in the condo complex of my client’s choice, this unit ticked all the boxes, except the price was too high. The SMART Realty Solutions team got to work crunching numbers and formulating a winning strategy to save our client tens of thousands on the purchase. ⁠
⁠
In an overheated real estate market like ours, how do we still find (relative) bargains for our Buyer clients? Persistence, preparation, and professional negotiation skills. ⁠​​​​​​​

Our investor clients told us, "Find an opportunity!" and so that is just what we did!⁠
⁠
After viewing more than a dozen properties, and submitting more than a few (unsuccessful) offers, we struck gold! ⁠
⁠
This lovely home had all the earmarks of a great investment: in great shape but very outdated; in a mature neighbourhood starting to be rejuvenated; on a huge lot with room to grow.⁠
⁠
We worked in collaboration with a great listing agent to create a deal that felt like a "Win/win" for all involved. Our thrilled buyers have already begun the renovations in their imaginations. We can't wait to see this property transformed!⁠
⁠
Thank you for allowing the SMART Realty Solutions Team to partner with you on this exciting project!⁠

When we met our lovely clients, G & B, in 2018 on our Condo Market Tour they were not convinced that condo living was right for them. During that tour they experienced condos in many sizes, prices, and styles, and saw possibilities for the future.

Fast forward to earlier this year when they told me it was time to find that perfect next home. When a unit in one of their preferred buildings (discovered on the condo tour) came to market, we were thrilled to tour it together with family.

Beautifully renovated, this rare three-bedroom unit ticked all the boxes. Open concept Chef’s kitchen with sparkling quartz counters, stainless steel appliances, and tons of built-in storage.  Large principal rooms, separate ensuite Laundry room, and two full baths complete the 1257 sq foot layout. Bright, westward exposure ensures gorgeous sunsets to be enjoyed on the open balcony. It even includes two parking and a storage locker!

Best of all for our clients, this was a stone’s throw from their long-time family home. Time to enjoy maintenance-free living, but in a community filled with connections and friendships that would continue in their swanky new apartment. 🎉​​​​​​​
