How I Got 201 N Westshore #1207 Under Contract in Under Two Weeks — And What It Means for You

When Residence 1207 at 201 N Westshore hit the market, it wasn’t just listed — it was launched with strategy and precision.

This corner unit showcased thoughtful upgrades and was priced to capture attention. The result? A swift, near-ask offer and a 13-day close — a strong outcome in today’s market and a testament to the power of expert positioning.

What You Should Know:

Positioned, Not Just Listed.
Residence 1207 didn’t need staging — it needed strategy. A strong pricing plan, compelling marketing, and precise timing created buyer urgency and delivered results. In a market where listings can linger, it moved in just 13 days.

What Makes My Listings Stand Out

1. Connected Where It Counts
I don’t just list homes — I leverage relationships. My network of top-producing agents and local connections means your listing gets visibility beyond the MLS. From quiet heads-ups to strategic buzz, this network works to your advantage.

2. Data Meets Psychology
Anyone can show a property — I help buyers see themselves living there. My Dale Carnegie-inspired approach combines emotional insight with market data to move buyers from “maybe” to “where do I sign?”

3. Follow-Up That Sticks
After showings, I don’t just thank — I follow through. Buyers get personalized videos, neighborhood guides, and insights tailored to their interests. It’s not about checking a box; it’s about staying top-of-mind in a crowded market.

What This Sale Means for Other Owners in the Building:

The sale of Residence 1207 helps define the current value range for similar 2-bedroom layouts in Lakeshore East. It shows that well-presented homes with the right pricing strategy can move quickly — even without parking.

If you’re considering selling, now’s the time to evaluate your condo’s position in this active market. I’ve sold here for over 20 years and know exactly what drives buyer decisions — and what delivers strong results.

Why Strategy Matters

Not all listings sell quickly — or for full value. It takes more than a sign and an MLS entry.

Here’s what made this sale successful:
Strategic pricing based on current $/SF data, not guesswork
Local expertise on what features matter in this building

If you're interviewing agents, ask them how they'll position your home — not just list it. 

Styled quote image reading: 'Presentation matters. Strategic staging made the space feel more livable, modern, and open—helping buyers visualize themselves at home. In a competitive market, details like this don’t just stand out—they sell.' – Ginger Menne

Why Now Might Be the Right Time to Sell:

1.  Inventory is low. That means less competition.
2.  Buyer traffic remains strong, especially for well-staged and properly marketed homes.
3.  Interest rates are stable and buyers are getting off the fence.
See what buyers actually paid — price per square foot reveals more than just a number.
