realtor had around 50 showings over 4 months with NO offers.....I finally got 1 offer and that won the deal but didn't make much out of it at all.

so...if you're looking for detached, might be a good thing to have the suite option for quicker resale in the future.

Less buyers for sure but they are out there. I know when I was looking in 2019 a suite was a deal breaker for me did not want one. For sure though much harder to sell without.
