The Numbers

The appraised value is based on the above properties that have sold nearby. This represents the statistical value of your property. Regardless of the statistical value it is our speciality to achieve the most that the market will deliver. 

Appraised Value:

3/30 Pitau Road

$3,800,000 - $4,000,000

2/30 Pitau Road

$3,900,000 - $4,100,000

After reviewing both properties carefully, I believe 2/30 is likely to command a higher overall value due to its private enclosure off Bounty Lane. The added privacy, reduced traffic and sense of exclusivity are strong lifestyle drivers that buyers pay a premium for.

With that in mind my strategic recommendation would be to bring 3/30 to market first. Achieving a strong result on 3/30 will help establish a benchmark setting a positive price precedent ahead of launching 2/30. This creates momentum, strengthens buyer perception of value and positions 2/30 to maximise its final sale price.

Methods of Sale

We understand that navigating the property selling process can be both exciting and challenging. In New Zealand, there are several commonly used methods of sale, each with its unique advantages. These include private treaty, deadline sale, and auction. Rest assured, we are here to guide you through the intricacies of each method, discussing their respective pros and cons, and collaboratively deciding which option aligns best with your specific requirements. To provide you with a solid foundation, let's begin with a general overview of each approach.

 

1 . Private Treaty

Private treaty is a method of selling property where the seller can set a fixed asking price. Potential buyers negotiate directly with the seller and their agent until an agreement is reached, with no time limit.

Price by negotiation is another method, employed in situations where accurately estimating a property's sale price proves challenging. Potential buyers then submit offers based on their assessment of the property's market value, and the seller engages in negotiations with them to determine the final price.

2 . Deadline Sale

Deadline sale is a method of selling property where interested buyers are given a specific deadline to submit their offers, and all offers are then considered together after the deadline has passed.

This method, similar to an auction, requires parties to register their interest within a specified time frame and fosters competition through multiple offers. Purchasers can submit conditional or unconditional offers, and unlike a tender, the property can be sold before the Set Sale Date.

3 . Auction

Auction is a method of selling property through a public event where potential buyers competitively bid against each other, and the highest bidder wins the property at the conclusion of the auction.

This process introduces urgency and competition, focusing purchaser attention while maximising the selling price. Vendors retain control over terms, conditions, and settlement date, ensuring cash unconditional sales and buyer trust.

Note: Auctioneer Fees are an additional cost of $800.00

Strategy

In real estate, competition drives great results. So how do you create competition? In this market we’re running a three stage strategy to keep the maximum number of buyers engaged and allow a forum for buyers to compete. Achieving above market value for your property doesn’t happen by accident, we have a tested and repeatable strategy to give you the best chance of achieving your dream price.

 

1 . Tease

This phase of the campaign is designed to capture buyers who are already known to us. We do this by running a teaser campaign through Facebook, Instagram and our email database before launching the property to the major websites. If we find the right buyer, we can create a situation where the buyer is likely to pay top dollar to secure the property before it goes ‘live’. 

2 . Launch

This stage involves an official launch to the major websites (TradeMe, realestate.co.nz, One Roof and our own website), Facebook and Instagram with a ‘no price’ campaign i.e. Auction or By Negotiation. A no price campaign allows us to draw interest out of the market without running the risk of either over-pricing or under-pricing.

3 . Nurture

It’s not uncommon for buyers to need 4 - 10 ‘touch points’ before being comfortable making an offer. A touch point can be made through phone call, email or social media. Data collected from buyers allows us to keep them updated by email and phone, as well as making sure the property is memorable by retargeting with Facebook ads. This ensures no buyer slips through the cracks.

What People Are Saying

 

Expert Guidance Made Home Buying a Pleasure

I had the pleasure of working with Mel Taylor during my recent home purchase and the experience was nothing short of exceptional.  Her deep understanding of the local market and keen negotiation skills ensured I secured my dream home.  What truly set Mel apart was her ability to make the entire process enjoyable and stress free.  Her positive attitude and personalised approach turned what would have been a daunting experience into a fun and seamless journey.  I wholeheartedly recommend Mel to anyone seeking a dedicated and skill real estate professional.

  • Sarah - 12A Riverton Road

A Very Happy Vendor

Mel Taylor was recommended to me by our next-door neighbor. You don’t work with estate agents very often in life, so the recommendation of Mel turned out to be the best thing for us. From the first meeting, it was clear she was highly experienced and extremely professional. After assessing our property, she recommended an on-site auction as the best option, and I agreed. From that point, Mel kept me informed every step of the way, updating me on what had been done. The advertising was superb, and she kept me informed about the level of interest.

I have to say that the auction was the only way to achieve the excellent result we did in our case. Mel, in the modern vernacular—'you rock!'

  • Alex - 41 Karewa Parade

Optimism in a Sticky Market

We interviewed a number of agents when putting our house on the market and Mel was a standout.

She genuinely loved our house as much as we did and her enthusiasm and drive to find the right buyers in a difficult market using the full range of tools at her disposal was exceptional.

Mel never changed course and her confidence and persistence got us a great result.

The not so small print…

Our fee: Our standard commission is an admin fee of $500 + 2.95% + GST.

The estimated selling price is based on other properties deemed 'comparable' - either sold or currently for sale in the area – plus supporting market information.

The above estimate is based on current market conditions. These estimates may alter depending on several factors including the market itself, the final presentation of the property and the promotional strategy chosen at the time of listing. Should there be any delay in listing we may need to review the appraised price prior to listing.

The within opinion of market value is based on our experience in the market and is arrived at by comparison with recent sales. We are not licensed valuers and this is not a report of a registered valuer. This appraisal is based on the assumption that there are no outstanding Council Requisitions, Consents, Code Compliance Certificates, no defects in Title and no issues in regards to structural and weather tightness which may affect the market value of the property.

Note: "This appraisal is subject to the market continuing its current trajectory and there being no significant build defects."
