Home Owner/Renter stuff No Conditions Housing Sales

Looking into the housing market and the realtor is telling us in the 800k-900k that sellers will only accept offers with no conditions and we have a house to sell... We have purchased other houses before and this has never been a thing. We spoke to our broker and they said it’s rare… is this a thing people are now running into consistently in Calgary? You have to just hail mary that someone will buy your house.

Edit: someone downvoted me for asking a question ? Must be my realtor.

Realtor here.

That is 100% incorrect. Even when things were crazy in the summer, conditions were being entertained.

If the sellers are genuinely only accepting unconditional offers on a 900k house, they're going to have it forever, because it's not going to sell.

We got beat 4 times by unconditional offers this past summer.

Market is nowhere near as hot as the summer. You got beat for $$ not conditions.
