Navigating the real estate landscape can be like embarking on an unknown adventure, with each property posing its own set of challenges. In the face of these obstacles, the art of perseverance takes centre stage. This article explores a case study wherein PropertyLimBrothers’ Listing Managers, Patricia and Jeremy, demonstrates their adept handling of a substantial objection by employing an innovative approach driven by unwavering perseverance. 

This approach set off a ripple effect, unfolding a narrative that paved the way for the development of a new relationship founded on trust and confidence. 

Purpose of Engagement

The seller initially acquired this property for investment purposes, and had transformed it into a lucrative rental venture for a couple of years. With the unique inherent factors of the property, the sellers decided to engage PropertyLimBrothers to sell their property to facilitate a transition to another real estate investment. 

Living Space Redefined

Envision this: a property totaling 1,485 sqft, with a curve ball – a substantial portion exceeding 400 sqft dedicated to a walkway and an outdoor cabana. Unprecedented, yet precisely the situation with the property in question. The consequence? The net usable area for actual living purposes is condensed to just 1,000 sqft. Upon our listing managers’ first encounter with this property, they were not only surprised but also confronted with the task of strategising its marketability. 

However, as they embarked on this venture, they uncovered a fascinating paradox. What started as an objection – the limitation of net usable space, had transformed into an avant-garde approach to living. To elaborate, our team redefined the living space – recognising the potential to market the space as a ‘lifestyle living concept’. The walkway and the outdoor cabana, although not conventionally seen as functional living space, was positioned as a factor that enhanced the overall lifestyle experience.

Irrespective of the mentioned factor, if prospective buyers were to acquire the unit, they would be paying for the cost of the entire 1,485 sqft. This atypical distribution prompted negotiations that revolved around the calculation of price, factoring in the sizable non-internal space. 

Thankfully, due to the seller’s receptiveness to feedback and our team’s commitment to transparent communication, a consensus on the final closing price was reached. 

Drivers of the Innovative Approach: Signature Home Tour Video

The first factor that drove the innovative approach was PropertyLimBrother’s Signature Home Tour video. 

Crafted strategically to emphasise the allure of the long walkway and the outdoor cabana, the effectiveness of this became apparent as prospective buyers, impressed by the video, expressed a positive sentiment for the outdoor cabana during viewings. This played a pivotal role in presenting the property in a light that resonates positively with prospective buyers, reshaping the perception of the property. 

Drivers of the Innovative Approach: Commitment to Teamwork

Another crucial factor was the strategic choice to play tag team. Engaging in buddy deals like this one demands a profound commitment to teamwork, a quality that was exemplified by our dedicated team.

With a direct buyer, it called for Patricia and Jeremy to play the balancing game between meeting the seller’s expectations whilst effectively communicating with the buyer. To facilitate this, they made the decision to have Patricia take charge of the seller, and Jeremy, the buyer. This allowed them to put themselves in a position to communicate between both parties working in the best interest of the sellers, showcasing their collaborative spirit. This displayed our team’s ability to adapt and handle various aspects as required in the complex dynamics of a real estate transaction. 

Development of a New Relationship

Impressed by our team’s innovative approach, the buyer too gained a sense of trust and confidence. Subsequently, they too, engaged PropertyLimBrothers to handle the rental of the unit – a feat that Patricia and Jeremy accomplished in less than two months. With future plans to occupy the property, this swift rental process minimised the buyer’s downtime and facilitated a balanced approach to managing mortgage payments.

PLB’s Motto: All Properties Can Be Sold

The synergy of creative minds and steadfast perseverance unearthed the unexpected allure within this property. Patricia conveyed the transformative power of adopting a belief in their capacity to successfully market this unit. This shift in mindset went beyond influencing their own outlook – it became a resonating force, catalysing a positive change in how the property was perceived.

This empowered the duo to stay true to what PropertyLimBrothers stand for; All properties can be sold.

In conclusion, this case study accentuates the blend of PropertyLimBrothers’ expertise, creative and innovative approaches, a resolute commitment to teamwork, and perseverance – all of which culminated in the resounding success of this transaction.
