Client Relationship and Market Strategy
The seller had previously worked with multiple brokers before choosing to work with Sam and his team, citing their market expertise, strategic marketing, and client-focused approach as key differentiators. Recognizing the urgency of the sale, Sam and his team swiftly prepared a comprehensive due diligence package within a week, ensuring all necessary reports and documentation were readily available for potential buyers. They then launched a multichannel marketing campaign that included direct outreach, paid advertising, and exposure on commercial real estate platforms to maximize visibility. Additionally, they conducted targeted phone qualifications and arranged private tours to attract serious buyers. This strategic approach resulted in four strong offers, with the final accepted offer exceeding the client’s expectations in both price and timeline.
