Summary
Our clients had made the decision to sell their home and relocate to the Sutherland Shire. They liked the idea of having someone independent and experienced in their corner to oversee and manage the selling process. They wanted us to undertake our own research in regard to what the property is worth. This would give them a level of comfort when assessing the agent appraisals when they were submitted.
Key Points
After reviewing the agent submissions, we appointed an agent who had achieved some good recent sales results for similar type properties in the area. There estimate on worth was accurate compared to the competing agents. We established the agent had potential buyers on their data base ready to go who missed out on other similar properties. We recommended to our clients to conduct a low-key approach before actively going live to market. The strategy was to try and flush out a good offer early. The plan B was to go live to market if things didn’t go to plan. Our clients agreed with the strategy and we instructed the appointed agent. The agent bought through a young family who made a solid offer upfront, we pushed the agent to work harder and as a result a compelling offer was submitted which the owners accepted.
