Katherine Prince

Having worked for over 30 years in the world of finance with Canada's largest bank, holding a number of positions before ending up as Vice-President, I've had the privilege of meeting a great many talented people. About ten years ago, my wife and I had the incredible experience of meeting Katherine Prince for the sale of our Brossard condo, since at the time our life project was to acquire a home in the Eastern Townships. We had very good contact with her and our transaction went very smoothly, leaving us fully satisfied. A few months ago, we once again called on Katherine's talents to find us a lovely home on the South Shore. After 10 years in the country, we wanted to be closer to our grandchildren, who were growing up too fast. This being our seventh property purchase, we were and still are demanding people who appreciate quality at the right price. Consequently, Ms. Prince had a difficult mandate to fulfill in the context of the market. A very active market with many sellers. We set our sights on a property on the South Shore, and the seller was not represented by an agent. Our decision was instantaneous. Katherine to represent us. This was a wise decision, as the seller had a strong sense of belonging and it was difficult for him to fully appreciate the context of this sale, with the issues raised during the initial consultation.

Until recently, we've always owned our own homes. We took great pleasure in maintaining them ourselves! But the day came when it all became a source of stress. Also, given the age of our property, we knew that sooner or later renovations would be necessary. That's why we decided to sell our house and move into an apartment for independent retirees. Organized and independent by nature, it was important for us to plan this project without disturbing our children in their own family activities. We also wanted to make this transition while we were still in good shape! So, within a few months, we had set everything in motion to sell our house. Thanks to the expertise and efficiency of our broker, Katherine Prince, we sold our property in 24 hours! This was a major advantage for us, as we didn't want to wait months and months before selling our house. We've been living in our new apartment for over a year now, and we have no regrets! The multitude of activities offered at our residence is astounding, and our lives are more fulfilled than ever!

Given my husband's frail health and his difficulty getting up and down stairs, in the fall of 2017 we had to make the decision to sell our property and move to a retirement residence. Looking back, I realize that it would have been easier to plan this transition earlier in our lives, when my husband was in full possession of his means. When one spouse is ill, it's difficult to take charge of such a project. So, step by step, we prepared ourselves. We met with our financial advisor, visited homes and then put our condominium up for sale. Since we had a busy schedule of medical and other appointments, we didn't hesitate to mandate our real estate broker Katherine Prince to represent us in the sale of our condominium. Her collaboration proved invaluable. In addition to skilfully negotiating the conditions of sale of our condo, she ensured that the dates for the notary, the move and the taking possession of the new apartment all coincided. Katherine was also very reassuring in the face of our concerns about the upcoming transaction. Today, even though my husband has passed away and I miss him, I'm happy to be in residence. I feel safe, I like my home, I've made new friends and I enjoy outings that keep me healthy and active!

After dedicating many years to taking care of our children and family, we decided it was time to take care of ourselves. Thus, the sale of our house became the turning point for a new beginning! We wanted to free ourselves from all the obligations related to our home (maintenance, renovations, and other expenses). Not wanting to leave anything to chance, we hired a real estate professional. We chose Katherine Prince because she had been referred to us by friends who were satisfied with her work. We were also very pleased! Indeed, throughout the selling process, she wisely guided us. She advised us on what to do before, during, and after the sale. Before listing our property, Katherine suggested ways to highlight our home to appeal to different buyers, including Asian clients. Following her recommendations, we made a few repairs and sold or donated unnecessary items. Subsequently, Katherine implemented an ultra-effective marketing strategy, allowing us to quickly attract several viewings and receive multiple purchase offers exceeding the asking price! Additionally, to ensure a smooth and happy transaction without any surprises, Katherine informed us well about the documents needed for the notary and the expenses to consider. Having an ally like Katherine for the sale of our home allowed us to fully concentrate on our relocation and other projects!

I was selling my apartment and a friend of mine told me about Kathrine Prince, I really can't say enough about Kathrine, she was so understanding, so knowledgeable, she always explained everything once and twice trying to make sure we understood very clearly, she was so patient with me and never complained about my reluctance to sell because I was so attached to my apartment even when I received a good offer, she told me that the important thing for me is that you are happy if you are not, don't do it worry about me and stop all this, I really can't say enough about her, thank you my dear Kathrine, you are the best, I wish you all the best
