The action

This three-bedroom house was one of a half-a-dozen bungalows for sale this spring in the north end of Vaughan, a few kilometres east of Highway 400. Two potential buyers made clear their interest but said they needed to sell their own properties before they could proceed.

“Several prospective buyers were waiting to sell their existing homes before moving forward, while one couple had an offer on their property and was expected to proceed once their sale became firm,” said agent Gary Cirillo.

“I held off on reducing the price while waiting for those potential buyers to make a decision.”

Eleven weeks later, in July, the first written offer finally emerged, but was rejected as inadequate. In response, the home was relisted with a new asking price below $1.3-million. The same buyer immediately raised their offer to $1,275,000.

“I recommended reducing the asking price by $50,000 to generate renewed interest, create a sense of urgency in the market, and encourage the existing buyer to improve their offer,” Mr. Cirillo said.

“That was basically accomplished the next morning.”

What they got

This more than 20-year-old house has an attached, double garage and a private driveway on the 49-by 98-foot lot.

It has a living room with a fireplace, a dining room and an eat-in kitchen with an exit to a walkway and gated yard.

There are two full bathrooms, including a primary ensuite. The basement is unfinished.

The home is within one kilometre of a school, walking trails and parks with soccer fields, and bocce and cricket courts.

The agent’s take

“It was a very well-maintained and clean bungalow,” Mr. Cirillo said.

“It’s on quite a nice street with no sidewalks, and it’s close to the North Maple Regional Park. They’re spending a lot of money developing that area.”
