Winnipegs spring market, although delayed, is starting to heat up. Here are a couple of sales in the past week:
2 story home in River part south was listed at $400K and sold for 61K OVER asking.
A side by side in All Seasons Estates sold for $320K, which was 30K over asking.
A 900 ft bungalow in West Ft Garry sold for 77k over asking
Even homes outside of the city are getting some love: 1300 ft bungalow near Ile Des Chenes on a 1 acre lot sold for 30K over asking.
A common refrain I hear from buyers is: “I’ll never get involved in a bidding war”. Truth bomb: don’t kid yourself. If you go out and LOVE a house, most buyers would put in an offer and voila….you’re in a bidding war, like it or not.
Who is winning these bidding wars? The buyers who are best prepared and ready to go. Call me right now to set up a free home buyer consultation, either in person or via zoom. 204-333-2202
