At The Pilarski Real Estate Group, we pride ourselves on recognizing our clients’ needs and putting our resources and expertise to work. Here’s a compelling case study showcasing our concierge approach to real estate, highlighting how we supported an overwhelmed senior client in preparing and selling her South Etobicoke bungalow.
A Trusted Opportunity to Assist
We were approached by a senior lady in her mid-80s, the surviving beneficiary of her aunt’s estate. At the heart of the estate was an original bungalow in South Etobicoke. From the outset, it became apparent that the estate trustee was overwhelmed—coping with the emotional toll of losing a loved one and the daunting scale of work required to prepare the property for sale.
Understanding the Client’s Needs
We took the time to sit down with the trustee to understand where our team could provide the most meaningful support. Recognizing her physical limitations and emotional attachments, we knew we wanted to make this a positive and seamless experience for her. With our concierge approach, we offered a comprehensive range of services and devised a detailed plan to facilitate the process.
Step-by-Step Home Preparation
- Sorting and Removal: We collaborated with the trustee and a family member to identify items of value and ensured these were carefully removed from the home. Once it was confirmed that no cherished items remained, we partnered with charitable organizations, including The Furniture Bank, to donate usable furniture. The remaining items were boxed and delivered to a local shelter, ensuring nothing was wasted.
- Clean-Up and Restoration: After the contents were removed, our clean-up team stepped in to handle debris removal and the extraction of soiled carpeting throughout the home. The final touch involved hiring professional painters to breathe new life into the 80-year-old walls.
- Final Preparations: With the interiors refreshed, the property received a thorough professional cleaning, and the exterior landscaping was given a quick yet impactful update. These enhancements prepared the home for photography and marketing.
Strategic Marketing and a Swift Sale
With the property beautifully staged and photographed, we launched a targeted marketing campaign to attract the perfect buyer. In just three weeks, our team brought this well-loved home to life and secured a sale at top dollar for another loving family.
A Satisfied Client
Perhaps the most rewarding outcome was the peace of mind our client experienced. She was deeply grateful for the comprehensive support we provided and overwhelmed with joy at the result. Knowing that all aspects of the home preparation and sale were managed with her best interests in mind brought her immense comfort.
