Summary
Locate Negotiate was referred a client through a professional services business to assist two busy professionals looking to downsize and relocate interstate. With limited understanding of the current market and selling process, the clients engaged us to oversee the entire campaign through our Vendor Advocacy service.
Following detailed due diligence on market value and local conditions, we provided recommendations to improve presentation and buyer appeal. We coordinated trades to complete a targeted cosmetic facelift prior to launching the property to market.
We interviewed and appointed the most suitable selling agent and worked closely with both the agent and clients throughout the campaign to ensure transparency, alignment, and a clear strategy.
Key Points
- Objective: Assist clients to prepare, position, and sell their property for the best possible outcome.
- Conducted due diligence on value and market conditions prior to sale.
- Recommended and coordinated cosmetic improvements to enhance appeal.
- Interviewed multiple agents and appointed the most suitable candidate.
- Managed the sales process through our Vendor Advocacy service, maintaining communication between client and agent.
- Worked closely with the agent during the negotiation phase when a strong pre-auction offer was received.
Outcome
The property was scheduled for auction, however a standout buyer emerged early in the campaign with a strong offer. We worked with the agent through the negotiation phase and guided the owners through each step to ensure decisions were made in their best interest. An improved offer was subsequently accepted, resulting in a successful pre auction sale. The clients were extremely satisfied with the outcome and valued the professional guidance provided throughout the entire process.
