1. Creating a Vision for Live-Work Flexibility

In today’s world, a condo must showcase versatility. Young professionals crave a space that seamlessly blends productivity with the comfort of home. Here’s how we do it:

Strategic Staging

  • Consider hiring a professional stager who can select sleek, space-efficient furniture. Swap out the oversized couch for a modular sofa, pair it with a compact yet stylish coffee table, and ensure there’s a sleek desk set up that looks out on the Toronto skyline—ideal for those work-from-home days.

Virtual Walkthroughs

  • Create a 3D tour of your condo that highlights the work-from-home area. By offering a virtual experience, potential buyers can imagine living and working in the space before they even step through the door.

Information Cards

  • Place tasteful information cards around the condo that describe multi-functional furniture or spaces. For instance, a card on the dining table could read, “Where dinners transform into deal-closing meetings.”

2. Amenities: The Silent Negotiators

A building’s amenities can indeed be a tipping point for a sale. But if a buyer doesn’t see them, they might as well not exist. Here’s how to ensure they take center stage:

Amenity Showcase Booklet

  • Create a visually appealing pamphlet with professional photos of the gym, pool, and party rooms. Include testimonials about your positive experiences, and leave it on your stylish coffee table for potential buyers to browse.

Key and Fob Ready-to-Go

  • Have a key and fob prepared for your real estate agent to offer buyers a personal tour of the amenities. Make it easy by providing a map of the amenities with highlighted routes from your condo unit.

Virtual Amenity Highlights

  • In addition to the physical amenities, include QR codes in the booklet that link to virtual tours or videos showcasing these spaces in action.

3. Walking the Walk: The Lifestyle Pitch

To sell a condo to a young professional, you’re selling them on the dream of a dynamic lifestyle. Make it real for them:

Neighbourhood Map

  • Create a rundown of the neighbourhood that points out the proximity to local hotspots, transit lines, and essential services. Highlight how each spot enriches the urban living experience.

Lifestyle Video

  • Produce a short lifestyle video that follows a day in the life of a resident in your condo. Showcase the morning coffee run, a workout in the building’s gym, and evening entertainment in the vicinity.

Community Events Board

  • If your condo has a community board or digital display showcasing local events, fitness classes in the building, or happy hours make it known. It reflects a vibrant community, something young professionals might be leaving behind in their college towns.
