Within 24 hours of listing my downtown condo, Corey pulled off a
nearly impossible feat, bringing me a solid full price offer, well
above the property’s assessed value. I’m so glad I called Corey based
on a friend telling me how he got multiple offers on his condo, way
above the asking price. I hestitated and didn’t call Corey right away.
I was worried, hearing of the decline in prices and the slowdown in
the market. Finally, I called him at what’s considered the worst
possible time to sell, just before the Christmas holidays.

What I appreciate about Corey is with his years of experience, he was
able to give me saavy advice about what needed to be done. I had
procrastinated because I wasn’t sure if I could sell my apartment as
is or if it need to be renovated. Did I need to replace appliances?
Should I buy furniture or pay for staging? Corey and I walked through
the apartment, estimated costs and he was able to quickly assess
whether he could sell as is or whether he could recoup any fix-up
costs.

In my situation, I just needed to thoroughly clean the apartment,
remove some furniture and incorporate a few staging suggestions
recommended by Corey. However, I wanted some time to make arrangements
to get these chores done. Corey firmly but gently advised me to try to
get it done by the end of the week rather than let the calendar slide
into December so we could get the maximum number of motivated buyers
in before the holiday season kicked in.

I’m soooo glad I trusted Corey to take action and get everything done
that week. He in turn quickly made arrangements to have a photographer
come in to take photos on a Sunday. As soon as those were ready, he
got my condo listed and started working the phones. Then bam — less
than a week after meeting Corey, he called me with an offer.

Plus the buyer wanted to close quickly. Corey easily worked through
the few minor revisions. He recommended a reasonably priced, efficient
notary who could do a quick turnaround on the paperwork. From start to
finish, in a little over three weeks, I had money in the bank and
peace of mind that my condo was sold for a decent offer at one of the
highest square footage prices in my building to date.

I would highly recommend and use Corey again. He was ever so prepared
and came to our initial meeting with market comps in hand. So we were
able to jointly determine a fair asking price and come up with a swift
action plan of what needed to be done.

Sure, it’s a tough real estate market out there. But with a realtor,
like Corey, with hustle and sage advice, he’s the right guy to get
your property sold.
