The Story Of 1575 Henry Street

Happy Clients

Chris Perkins enjoyed every part of the process when selling 1575 Henry Street in the South End of Halifax.  Getting to know the owners was a real pleasure, as was learning about all of the work they put into the home over the years.  It was the perfect blend of old-world character combined with the modern conveniences we demand today. 

Chris appreciated all the trust his clients placed in him to properly showcase the property.  When marketing a home, there is way more to it than stating the number of rooms or its square footage. There's more to it than simply listing upgrades.  Homes come with a story that needs to be told. Whether it was the painstaking design process with a local architect or the huge effort to save the heritage stained glass. Or perhaps, the gatherings they had with family in the kitchen (East Coast Style) and the window box that hovered above a radiator, where the kids used to sit with a good book.  The stories of a home are what make it special.

Utilizing the strategies of the Coldwell Banker Selling System and the extensive efforts of the owner to prepare the property for sale, Chris was able to obtain multiple offers the first weekend it was listed for sale. Here's what his clients had to say about their experience:

"When we decided to sell our 3000 sq ft family home, we wanted a realtor with integrity, acumen, and attention to detail. Chris Perkins was recommended to us, and he brought all three. From our first meeting to the final closing, Chris was prepared, professional, and committed to our needs and the sale. Chris brought information and expertise to every decision point, so that we felt equipped, empowered, and confident. He consulted and involved us, but deftly guided the process, which we really needed him to do. He made the effort to learn the beauty, history and potential of our particular house. It showed in his marketing, which had a bit of love and character mixed in with the polish. Photography, video, print, website, social media, and personal replies to inquiries were so well done, that by list date there was considerable interest and offers quickly following. Our house sold in under a week, at over-asking price.

Chris knows what he is doing, and certainly met our needs. But here is the extra, the icing on the cake, that is Chris Perkins: he is a pleasure to work with. He is calm and capable, professional and polite, attentive and on-time, friendly and frequently funny. It was a pleasure to work with Chris, and our neighbours and on-site tradespeople said the same. That matters too. We whole-heartedly and unreservedly recommend Chris Perkins."
