Case study: Thorns, Mersham
How to sell a property for £75k over another agents asking price then complete the sale in just 22 days.
Final sale price: £875,000
Key facts:
- The property had been on the market with multiple other agents, it failed to sell, even when listed at a lower price.
- The vendors were intrigued by our approach to marketing and instructed us to sell, with the reassurance they weren’t tied into a fixed contract.
- Within a week we arranged 6 viewings for one day.
- 5 of the 6 viewers made offers, this led to a competitive bidding war.
- We negotiated an offer for £75,000 over the top of the asking price.
- Offer accepted to completion took 22 working days.
What was the difference?
High quality marketing: Poor marketing by the previous agent could have missed enquiry opportunities. Our marketing made a great first impression and showed the property at it’s best to generate interest.
Expert negotiators: With multiple offers, we were able to encourage higher bids to acheive the best price.
Strategic pricing: The guide price allowed the property to be seen by a wider audience and increase interest.
Dedicated sales progressor: Excellent communication between all parties was key to getting a quick completion.
