We were recommended to this client just as they had come out of agency with large franchise group, citing their disappointment with not obtaining any interest out of the $1 600’s, from a ‘Price by Negotiation’ marketing method, and a promise of $1 800 000. Our assessment suggested a realistic price expectation in the mid/high $1 700’s, so we presented the property with a ‘Published Price Indication’. The outcome was ‘chalk & cheese’…

A work in progress located in a highly desirable City suburb. Having sold property for this client before, we were engaged to get the best outcome for this offering, a real prospect for gaining a foothold in this neighbourhood. Attracting buyers operating from both ‘head & heart’, a Deadline was the best marketing option due to the opportunity and location. We drew 22 parties, expected something in the high $700’s. SOLD Unconditionally on the day.

A decision to off-load this section by our developer Client, due to the frustration the pandemic had brought to the building industry. A lack of materials, skyrocketing prices and increasing delays in delivery. A great outcome as it turned out, being that this lot was purchased for $320 000, 10 months earlier. A $237 000 margin that essentially outperformed the anticipated return on the planned full development - without the risk.

We were contractually engaged directly by our Buyer (Builder) Client to represent their interest in this ‘As is – Where is’ property, on the scheduled auction date. On this basis, our involvement is independent from any obligation to the seller or their appointed agency. Our input included two site meetings with our client to assess the level of damage and quantify the repair strategy. While they calculated the realistic cost for such work, we ran a Comparative Market Analysis so as to establish a viable ‘buy price’ and the probable remediated ‘sell price’ [$1 500 000]. This established our top dollar for this property at $800 000. We achieved a significantly better result on the day, by negotiating the price to the lowest possible level the seller would accept.

Hi Kim, just want to say you have been a pleasure to deal with. Helped to restore our trust in property agents. If asked by anyone , you’ll be our only recommendation. Looking forward to concluding our own sale too. Many thanks to you and your clients, we are very excited about our new home.

Hi Kim. Pop the cork, it’s time to celebrate. As you say in real estate speak, our buyers have gone unconditional. Thanks for your part in bringing this sale to a successful conclusion. We’ve thoroughly enjoyed working with you and it’s actually been a lot of fun (not an emotional seesaw usually associated with property sale and purchase). Talk soon.

Awesome – glad we opted to go with an Agent, I would have been terrible at fielding calls myself. Definitely worth paying a professional.

Stonehouse refer to breaking the mold…well break the mold they did and I couldn’t be happier! Talk about commitment to the process and by that I mean to both vendor and purchaser- Kim is a sublime professional. From the moment he first talked me through his approach and how we’d take my property to the market I felt at ease and the result was exactly as we’d planned. Why you’d go anywhere else I’m not sure. I’m so sure I’m back for more shortly…

Thank you so much for all you have done for us. Your positive attitude for getting the result we wanted was unshakable, you have been amazing.

Thanks Kim, I can’t thank you enough for your true integrity and Stonehouse’s business model. You are truly focused on the vendor, not your own back pocket like the big franchise agents whilst providing a first class experienced service. You achieved a fantastic result with a smooth process all the way for both parties. You’re a pleasure to deal with and know the industry inside out. Originally I discussed selling with other agencies but couldn’t get my head around the exorbitant fees charged to sell a house. Especially if you look at an agents total time spent getting to a completed sale, it’s just not right and this sale proved you don’t need a big named brand. Research and this sale shows 70% of houses are sold via advertising through trademe, auctions are frustrating for buyers, time consuming for vendors, easy for agents and don’t always achieve the best results. Your time and effort put into this sale with viewings by appointment, 30 interested parties, the discussions, negotiations and advice truly showed your knowledge and skill in this industry. Thanks again, looking forward to doing this again with Stonehouse.
