Luxury Home Goes Viral

Posted on: July 12th, 2023 by Chris Scott

When it comes to the world of Ottawa real estate, stumbling upon an extraordinary property that captures everyone’s attention is a rare find. But every once in a while, a house emerges that captivates the market. Enter 5406 Mansel Crescent – a true masterpiece that has swiftly become our favorite listing. Working with the sellers to present this luxury home to the market was a wonderful experience.

In the realm of real estate, it’s not often that a property within a specific price range attracts multiple offers. Yet, 5406 Mansel Crescent has defied all expectations. The overwhelming interest from buyers and the fierce competition surrounding the offers validate the undeniable appeal of this remarkable house. The cost per square foot really set this home apart from the competition. They were able to secure a benchmark price for the area in large part due to its exceptional features and incredible design. The true magic of this house lies in the love and care invested in every single detail by the sellers. It is evident that they poured their hearts into creating a space that emanates warmth, elegance, and a genuine sense of home. From the thoughtfully curated finishes to the carefully considered design choices, every aspect of this house was taken into consideration.

During the listing process every detail was meticulously addressed, leaving no stone unturned. From the initial staging and photography to the comprehensive marketing strategy, we ensured that this home would shine among other listings in the area. We produced a great video making sure that all the best features of this home were presented to prospective buyers. Further, we live in a social media world. We had a second video professionally made with a drone intro for our Instagram reels. Both these videos were marketed to tens of thousands of buyers in our local market. The strategy was to blanket Ottawa on Instagram, Facebook, and youtube. It was amazing how many people came up to me to say they saw the video on one of those platforms. It was fun creating some serious buzz about this home.

As part of our marketing plan, we organized a broker open house, where we made sure to make it a memorable event. Champagne flowed, and refreshments from the local café, 692 Coffeehouse in Manotick, were served. The success of this event served as a true testament to the desirability of the property. The attending agents were not only impressed by the luxury home itself but also by the attention to detail and care put into its presentation. A few were influencers with thousands of followers on social media. They were taking videos and posting to their own followers. It was a really cool thing to see how a listing can go viral. All to say we had lots of fun working on this luxury listing and look forward to working in this niche in the future.

  Over the years, with multiple military moves, we’ve had the opportunity to work with many real estate agents, and we can confidently say that not all are created equal. Chris, by far, has been the most trustworthy and easiest real estate agent we’ve had the pleasure to work with.

  Colin has been the best realtor to work with and helped us buy a great house in the perfect neighborhood. Colin and the rest of the team at Chris Scott were incredibly helpful the whole way and always available to answer questions, show us houses at a time that was convenient for us and were just generally professional and friendly during the whole process. We will recommend Colin and the team to our friends and family.

  I was a co-Executrix of an estate, and we had a condo that we had to sell for the estate.  In order to get the property ready for sale, we had to have the over 5,000 square foot condo painted and the carpets replaced.  Since the property was empty, Chris recommended a home stager that he uses on properties that require these services, and she did a fantastic job of staging the condo. It took the condo to the next level. The condo sold for a phenomenal price, and we were very happy with Chris Scott and his abilities.  He always gives over 100 percent to get the job done!  I recommend him to anyone that requires the services of a great real estate agent.

  We worked with Rachel and she was beyond diligent. She is so organised and meticulous with details, it really helps when buying a home. She even agreed to do a virtual walk through for the home we ended up buying because we weren’t going to get there ourselves prior to offers being reviewed. She was also great with recommending areas to consider and avoid. Highly recommend.

  My husband and I purchased a house in the surrounding Ottawa area with the assistance of Colin from this group of individuals. We unfortunately were left with no choice but to purchase a home sight unseen due to our work circumstances. We originally considered not purchasing because of this.
We deliberated and chose to purchase a home after participating in FaceTime showings and we could not have been more satisfied. Colin was objective, professional, calm, informative, and realistic. He listened to our needs and helped us choose our home. The fact that we were pleasantly surprised, and a year later remain pleased as punch, says everything about how talented this company is. Will, without a doubt, use this company when we leave Ottawa.

  We worked with Chris to find a home back in 2011 that would suit our desire to be close to work. He was nothing but professional and courteous! Listening to our needs and showing us what we were looking for. Years later, when we thought about down sizing and finding a renovated home, he took us around to see some in the neighborhood. He always open to helping us out in our searches
