Timing Strategy: September Listing

Timing can make or break a real estate deal. We strategically chose to list this home in September, aligning with a moment when the market was ripe for showcasing its unique appeal.

 
 

Aggressively High Pricing for an Amazing Offer

Rather than sparking a bidding war, we decided on a different strategy. We priced the property aggressively high to secure a single, amazing offer that truly reflected the value of this special home.

Pre-Inspection and Key Repairs

To instill confidence in potential buyers, we initiated a pre-inspection and made key repairs based on the report, ensuring that the home was in impeccable condition for its new owner.

Enhancements: Painted Interior, Refinished Hardwood Floors, and Professional Staging

A fresh coat of paint, refinished hardwood floors, and professional staging transformed the property into a showcase of its true potential, making it irresistible to prospective buyers.

Open House Magic

Our open house strategy wasn't just about displaying the home; it was about verbally conveying the magic of this property and the exclusive membership to the nearby swim and tennis club.

This sale was a testament to our commitment to excellence, our deep understanding of the local market, and our ability to orchestrate a seamless, successful real estate transaction.
