We’re looking for a sign

We’ve been living in a beautiful townhome complex where we purchased a unit a few years ago in Morgan Heights.

Due to changes in our lives, we’re now wanting to sell and purchase an acreage instead. The thing is, it’s strata here, and the council made a decision recently that no for-sale signs are to be posted outside the front of the complex, as they feel they are unsightly.

They opted instead for a small sign to be posted that would then direct potential buyers inside the complex, to the mail box area to read any notices re: units for sale.

Fine, but… so far they haven’t posted that little sign, and for several months now have been diligently removing the real-estate signs and hiding them behind a building within the complex.

How are we to advertise and lure prospective buyers to our lovely home when they are cruising the neighbourhood looking for a new place to live?

Not everyone is on the Internet and reading MLS.

Our agent did receive permission from our strata management company to place her sign out front until such time as the small directional sign is posted, but that has made no difference – her sign is removed on a daily basis, and then later found by us and replaced again.

Today though, it has apparently been stolen completely!

If you hear of anyone looking for a four-bedroom, 3,700-square-foot home in this area, here we are! (I’ll be speaking with our agent about placing an ad in your paper also :))
