The Sandy MacKay Podcast

A 150-year-old church sitting empty isn't where most people see their next investment, yet one of our clients looked at that building and pictured 19 loft-style apartments. The finished result is one of the most ambitious projects we have ever been part of, from the heritage designation to the multi-million-dollar renovation. In our latest video, I walk through the vision, the hurdles, and the long-term strategy that turned a dead building into a beautiful income property. Watch the video to see what these transformations really take, and the approach we have coached investors on for years.

Winning a bidding war usually sounds like a story about who paid the most. This one isn’t. When our Burlington clients went up against two other offers, the thing that won the home had nothing to do with stretching their budget, and almost no agent does it anymore. In this video, we walk through the move that beat two competing offers, why it works far better than any email or phone call, and the three things every buyer needs before entering a competitive market. Watch the video to see how it all came together.

After being a part of more than a billion dollars in real estate, we've learned that what actually matters in a move is rarely what people expect walking in. The biggest lessons had almost nothing to do with square footage or list prices, and everything to do with the people on the other side of the table. In our latest video, we share four things we wish every buyer and seller knew before they made their move, including the one most people are surprised to hear. Watch the video to see how these might change how you approach your own next move.

Selling a home in Burlington is a very different task than it was a few years ago. Back then, you could list almost anything, and it would sell. Today, roughly half of the homes that hit the market never sell, and the ones that sit are usually rushed on without a plan. In this video, we walk through the five things we'd get completely clear on before putting our own home up for sale, the moves that decide whether you sell, sit, or land the price you're after. Watch our video before you list your Burlington home.
