After years seeking advice on ways to improve their property to maximise their sales price, a couple I’d known for many years had reached the empty-nest stage. They approached me with a clear objective: to maximise their sale price so they could confidently downsize to Mona Vale.
Their goal was not just to achieve the highest possible price, but to ensure every stage of the sale was handled strategically, efficiently and with minimal stress.
Preparing the home for family buyers
Before launching the campaign, the home needed to be positioned strategically for families looking for a peaceful setting with plenty of entertaining space. Key features, including the pool and backyard, were renovated and landscaped, while the property was professionally painted, cleaned and styled to ensure it presented at its absolute best.
My team and I helped coordinate trusted professional tradespeople, giving our sellers a clear strategy to market without the stress of managing every detail alone. This preparation played an important role in showcasing the home’s strongest features and creating a campaign that connected with buyers looking for a move-in ready home.
A standout result in 24 days
The result was exceptional and set a new street record. The property sold in 24 days, achieving a strong price well above our client’s expectations. More importantly, it allowed the owners to move onto the next stage of their lives with a settlement date that aligned with their move to Mona Vale.
Our sellers were relieved and excited at the sale, sharing that it was “such a positive experience for our family,” proving that patience, professionalism and extensive market experience to deliver an outstanding outcome.
