The highest offer isn’t always the best deal.
We were recently engaged by a long-standing client to manage the sale of a North Sydney property with development upside.

Rather than immediately taking the property to market, we recommended a targeted off-market strategy, positioning it directly to active developers and strategic investors.

Two credible buyers emerged, both with compelling but conditional offers.

Over a week of active negotiation, we worked closely with our client and the selling agent to test each buyer, improve the offers and negotiate stronger commercial terms. Importantly, we assessed each proposal on more than price, looking closely at the conditions, risks and overall strength of the deal.

The result? The property was successfully sold off-market, with our client accepting the strongest overall proposal without the need for a full sales campaign.

A good sale result isn’t just about finding a buyer. It’s about having the right strategy, understanding the detail and negotiating from a position of strength.

BOUGHT OFF-MARKET IN OYSTER BAY
Upsizing from an apartment to a family home is a big move, especially when the budget has limited flexibility.

For these clients, finding the right opportunity before it reached the wider market made all the difference.

We identified an off-market home in Oyster Bay that matched their brief, assessed the property and comparable sales, and developed a negotiation strategy around what we believed it was worth.

The result: a quality family home purchased off-market and within budget, without the competition of a full sales campaign.

A strong outcome built on local knowledge, identifying the opportunity early and negotiating with a clear strategy.

Another landmark location secured for King Living.
Locate Negotiate has secured a 3,395 sqm off-market corner site on Taren Point Road, Taren Point for long-standing client King Living.

With exceptional exposure and dual street frontage, the site will become a purpose-built showroom designed around King Living’s operational and brand requirements.
The deal involved securing the opportunity off-market and negotiating a complex long-term outcome that works for both King Living and the property owner.

It also builds on our previous work with King Living, including securing its flagship Balgowlah location on Sydney’s Northern Beaches.

A significant commercial property outcome for our client, and a great addition to the Sutherland Shire.
