How an Orange Beach home sold for the owner's number without being listed
This home on Marina Road in Orange Beach wasn't for sale. I had buyers who might want it, so I called the owner. Buyers from Louisiana bought it as their vacation home for $3,475,000, the owner's number, without it ever going public.
How did it start?
This home on Marina Road in Orange Beach wasn't for sale. I knew it well, and I had a buyer who might want it. So I called the owner. He said he'd sell for the right price.
What happened next?
My first buyers passed. But I knew two other agents who had clients looking for a home just like it. I set up the showings and represented the owner in the sale.
How did it turn out?
Buyers from Louisiana bought it as their vacation home for $3,475,000. That was his number. A year earlier, the home sat on the market for 6 months with another brokerage. This time, it sold without ever going public.
What would I tell an owner in the same spot?
You don't always need signs and open houses to sell. If you'd sell for the right price, tell me. I may already know who's looking.
