It was a regular Sunday...just like any other when my Wife suggested we take a look at some open houses in a beautiful new community in SE Calgary. It started innocently enough...My Wife and I have been debating about moving for awhile - nothing serious, just pillow talk.
Upon seeing what can only be described as spectacular sprawling floor plans and a "Stepford like" community - we decided it was time to get serious. The only thing standing in our way was the lack of a realtor to suit our needs.
If you've recently moved or considered moving in Calgary - you know that finding a realtor that suits your needs can be an overwhelming process. Realtors are somewhat similar to Lawyers in their motives and ambitions...
As I've been an active member of Beyond for awhile, I thought I would post a thread with some real estate questions, not intending to find an actual realtor. And so began my relationship with MIWYFSHOT. To say that he was efficient, would be putting it mildly. Within 1hr of me posting my questions, he had responded with answers and the promise to help further if I so desired.
I accepted his offer of help, and so began the process of finding the "perfect house" to suit the needs of my Wife and I. Within the next month, MIWYFSHOT was more than accomodating, finding suitable houses, setting up appts, consulting on the condition of my current house to prepare it for sale, etc...
Within 2 months, we found the perfect house, negotiated an INCREDIBLE price and sold our existing property. What's particularly interesting about the sale of my former property - is that while economic conditions had begun to drag in Calgary, MIWYFSHOT felt confident enough to promise my wife the sale of our property close or on asking price - within 1 week. Ambitious - even for him. The house sold - in 5 DAYS for only $1000 less than what we anticipated.
If you are looking for a realtor that is honest, hardworking, efficient - who knows his stuff - MIWYFSHOT is your Man. Be prepared to follow all of his instructions, as I wouldn't suggest they were easy. But successful none the less. MIWYFSHOT is the BOMB and I would highly suggest to anyone on beyond looking for a new house to consider him as your realtor. I have been in sales myself for 10+ years, am very good at what I do - I know a good salesman when I see one. He is a pro at what he does and I will be using him again in a few months for the sale of my own mothers house.
This is the first time in my life that I have actually taken the time to do a write up like this because i'm usually either not impressed enough by the service I've recieved or just couldnt be bothered to waste my time to do it, but credit should go to someone like this who so easily deserves it.
