Back in 2021, I sold my condo in Hamilton for less than the highest offer.

The top bid was from an investor, but I chose a young family instead, even though it meant leaving about $15,000 on the table. Everyone in my circle called me foolish for not taking the maximum profit from the sale. Has anyone else made a housing choice that went against pure financial gain, and how did you feel about it later?

Wait, you left $15,000 on the table? That is a serious chunk of change. I'm not gonna lie, my jaw actually dropped a little reading that number out loud. Most people would jump at the highest offer without a second thought, especially in this market. Did you ever look back at the listing later to see what that investor did with the place?

Good for you! I did the same thing and honestly, it just feels right.

Yeah, cutting out that toxic energy was the best move for me too.
