I grew up, went to school and got married in Calgary! I bought a home expecting to spend my entire life there.
I’ve never been a fan of the cold weather.
I don’t enjoy skiing, snowmobiling, sledding, ice skating or any winter time activities. I resent the time it takes to scrape ice off the windshield or brush snow off the hood. I don’t like shoveling snow. I would savor not to bundle up in a jacket, wool coat, hat and gloves every time I step out the door, but when I was offered a job in the southern United States, I instantly accepted. I was actually gleeful to relocate, my only concern was that my new company expected me to report to the job within three weeks, this did not supply much time to pack up my belongings, sell my home and secure new residing arrangements. There was no option of proceeding through a conventional real estate listing. A traditional sale of a house often takes months. What if a house inspection led to a bunch of repairs? What if I couldn’t interest a buyer? What if a potential customer couldn’t get bank lending? I needed the certainty of a quick sale. The answer was Leger Home Buyers. I reached them via their online form. I gave some basic information and they returned with a money offer. The offer was even-handed market value. Working with a family-owned, local company was wonderful. They were great about expediting every step of the sale. They arranged the closing within my timeframe.
