Selling an office chair in Pickering
Pickering sits on the lakeshore with a nuclear generating station on its waterfront, which is a substantial local employer and gives the town an unusually stable, technically skilled workforce. Behind the lakeshore it runs quickly into farmland and conservation land.
Employment here is unusually stable, so households turn over more slowly than in the commuter towns nearby. What appears tends to be sold because a family has outgrown it rather than because someone is leaving.
On appliances, ask the age and to see a full cycle run. Households here are stable and appliances often stay a long time, so the age matters more than the appearance.
Pickering, in Ontario, has around 95,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Toronto, Ottawa and Brampton are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
