Two years ago, I told Noemie Piard: "I am thinking about selling my family home of 8 years, and using the equity to downsize into a townhome without getting a bridge loan or a mortgage, ideally with back-to-back closings where the money from one house would wire transfer to pay for the new home." That's a tall order, but two years later, on April 15th and 16th, Noemie made back-to-back closings happen to sell my 5-bedroom house and purchase my new townhome with 0 mortgage. This deal depended on getting the best possible sale price for my home. What made Noemie Piard stand out from other realtors was that she monitored my neighborhood of Signal Creek for market analysis for over a year. In December of 2023, she provided me a CMA to prove that $625,000 would be the right asking price - which I said would not be enough for me to close on a townhome. We hung in there for the Spring market. In February of 2024, Noemie contacted me while I was on vacation to say that the house down the street had gone under contract for $695,000. I came home from vacation to list my home at $685,000 and Noemie was already prepping the house (she even oiled my wood banisters and doors, and helped me de-clutter). Within 7 days, we had multiple offers and went under contract at full price. Noemie negotiated 5-days post-occupancy so I could move straight into my next home. There were other realtors who wanted to market my listing, but they were unaware of the neighborhood market and suggested lower asking prices, and did not understand the sweet spot of timing. With Noemie, we went on the market with the right price at the right time - and got the right offer.
