Aspen Ridge is a quieter, newer pocket of Saskatoon's northeast, next to Evergreen and University Heights, and its newer construction means fewer of the condition issues that usually justify a discount. A well-priced Aspen Ridge home in good condition can sell at or above asking regardless of financing.
Cash does carry one real advantage for a buyer: it removes financing as a condition, which can shorten the closing timeline by 2 to 3 weeks compared to a financed deal and make an offer more attractive to a seller even at the same price, rather than at a lower one.
Any specific number quoted for a specific Saskatoon sale needs a comparable-sale analysis behind it, not a rule of thumb.
