THOUGHTS ON REAL ESTATE Tuesday, July 5, 2011 Some of the nicest people I know, I have never even met!Yesterday was an exciting day for one of my clients. She took possession of her first home – a cute condo in Surrey! My buyer client has only been in Canada for about 2 years from Eastern Europe. I started to write this post about my client but it isn’t really about her – it’s about the sellers of the condo. I have never met them and chances are I never will but I think they are the kind of people I would like to know. A very simple and thoughtful act on their part made the experience for my client one of those moments of magic.
 When we got into the condo on possession, the sellers had left a beautiful flower arrangement and a card welcoming my buyer to her new home and they hope that she will be as happy there as they were. It’s a small act but one not seen very often. Many times the only thing left behind is garbage or mail. It was a nice "welcome home".
