Less than three weeks to exchange contracts after accepting an offer. A new company record?
When a home sale moves this quickly, it reminds us why having motivated sellers, committed buyers and an exceptional progression team makes all the difference. This property was a textbook example of what can be achieved when everything aligns and why our approach consistently outperforms the industry average.
Every so often, a property sale reminds us what is possible when motivated sellers, committed buyers and an exceptional team all pull in the same direction. This home achieved outstanding speed from launch to exchange and showcases the difference our approach can make, even in a challenging market.
The background
This property launched with our full marketing package including magazine quality photography, a clear walk through video tour, accurate floor plans and our phased portal strategy. Interest came quickly and viewings followed soon after.
The sellers were realistic, motivated and prepared. The buyers were cash, chain free and ready to move. A perfect combination for a smooth and efficient transaction.
The results
Sale agreed in just over 4 weeks
Strong marketing and early buyer engagement led to a high quality offer within the first month of launch.
Exchange in 2.86 weeks
This is where the result became something special. Under the expert handling of Kerry in our in house sales progression team, the legal process moved at impressive speed. Kerry currently holds our company record of 2.71 weeks to exchange, so yes, she is slightly disappointed to have missed beating her own record by a few days. She still gets full bragging rights for this one.
How we achieved this
Here are the factors that contributed to such a fast result:
• High impact marketing
Our in house photography and detailed presentation created strong early interest. First impressions attract the best buyers.
• Phased portal launch
Our structured approach ensured no buyer missed their alerts, helping us build momentum over several days rather than blowing all exposure at once.
• Proceedable buyers
Cash, chain free and ready with solicitors in place. This removed many of the common causes of delays and fall throughs.
• Proactive progression
Kerry and our progression team kept every party focused and moving. They anticipated potential issues, solved problems early and ensured nothing slipped through the cracks.
• Committed sellers
Our sellers were responsive, organised and fully invested in the process. When sellers and agents work as true partners, speed becomes achievable.
Why this matters for future sellers
With national fall through rates sitting close to one in three, speed and certainty are more important than ever. Outcomes like this are not simply luck. They are the result of strong marketing, serious buyers, experienced negotiators and a progression team that refuses to let momentum drop.
If every sale performed like this one, the moving process would feel far less stressful for everyone. Even in circumstances with a chain, the involvement of a proactive team is critical for ensuring the progression stays on track for all parties involved and challenges can be overcome.
Thinking of moving in 2026?
Getting market ready early puts you in a proceedable position the moment your ideal home appears. Whether you buy through us or another agent, being ready to act can be the deciding factor for a seller choosing between interested parties.
