Mid-Atlantic Multifamily Team
Executive Summary
This assignment came in through a referral from an agent Greysteel had worked with on a nearby sale earlier in the year.
Rather than run a full marketing process, the team went straight to the owner of the adjacent building, who had been considering the block for a while, and offered clear guidance pricing. He paid a premium to lock the deal up immediately.
The Challenge
The seller needed a buyer who could move fast, and a broad marketing campaign would have taken time the deal didn’t need to spend, given a known, motivated buyer already in the picture.
The Solution
Greysteel approached the neighboring owner directly with firm pricing rather than waiting for a competitive process to surface him. He elected to pay up rather than risk losing the property to an open market.
Results
- $1,385,000 sale price, secured without a broad marketing campaign
- Accelerated closing timeline, driven by the buyer’s certainty about the asset
- Demonstrated the value of an established local relationship network in sourcing off-market buyers
