The Seller hired the Northwest Multifamily Team a year in advance of the release to market timeline in order to ready the buildings for market, put needed rent increases in place and in order to capture the very best photography possible, including professional exterior, aerial and interior photography showcasing the property. The Team worked together with the Sellers to assemble a thorough due diligence file and prepare the buildings for market. The Team built a compelling marketing story: the opportunity to own a true community in an amazing Capitol Hill location, with irreplaceable retail and outdoor spaces. The buildings had been well-cared for and there was a further opportunity to upgrade the units over time. The Team released the building on schedule and created a marketing plan that included a vast digital market campaign, video highlight reels and an extensive directly calling campaign to local investors who would fit the profile of the perfect buyer. After 4 weeks of marketing a call for offers was set and the Team brought in 5 offers. Though the buildings had full exposure to the market, all five were brought in the by the team. The team then designed a process by which there would be an additional tour for the buyers, and a round of buyer interviews. The buyers were given a uniform list of questions designed by the Team and the Seller in advance so they could prepare answers and the interviews were held over video conference. These were incredibly valuable to this particular listing assignment, because of the very specific profile desired. From here, the Team was able to negotiate a second round of offers and returned with several non-contingent offers. The meant that the Seller was able to hand pick the buyer, but also sign a non-contingent offer with no contingencies for the sale of the buildings.
