Lego Headquarters, Enfield, CT
This corporate office headquarters deal came to us through Ivey The Collective. The challenge was that is the remote location 30 miles north of Hartford is not close to public transportation. However, by working directly with our specific contact, the opportunity was stripped out of the company’s typical portfolio and was priced at a significant discount to the buyer. The deal closed in 45 days.
A personal friend of 40 years brought this deal to the table. At first it was challenging to get the information needed to put the deal together and truly understand the value of the deal. The Ivey team worked diligently to build trust with the seller to understand the value of the opportunity. We introduced a buyer through my network and made the deal happen by finding common ground between buyer and seller.
A real estate investment firm whose office building had matured, and other brokers were not able to sell it. A member of the Ivey Collective brought it to us knowing our reputation for finding buyers in a creative way. It was a challenge because the property was outside of Boston away from public transportation. It was an older building with outdated décor. We worked diligently to find a buyer within the Ivey Collective but outside of our immediate area. The result was a closing in 30 days.
This was the very first time this client was buying an investment property and they relied on us heavily for advice. It was a white-hot market and multifamily opportunities were going fast. We found the ideal opportunity by communicating with members of the Ivey Collective and got wind of this property before it went to market and was able to put an offer in early. Because we got in early on the deal, we were able to secure the property at a reasonable sale price that was not yet inflated by the frenzy of the market.
This opportunity arrived with us through an owner/broker who Andy had worked with in the past. We did a thorough market analysis to determine the market value and created compelling marketing material, making the necessary renovations to bring this property to life. We got the client her full asking price and closed with no issues.
Through the purchase of Beech Street with my multi-family investor, we created a strong relationship built on trust, that that brought them back to me for a new investment. But it was tough because inventory was scarce. So we positioned our buyer as the one who had the greatest ability to close quickly. The strategy worked and once the transactions closed, our team worked diligently to quickly lease and fill tenant vacancies. The result is a satisfied and excited client, eager to find the next opportunity.
A rare opportunity in Sunapee, NH. This idyllic community has everything to offer. A buyer initially came in with a cash offer and then asked if they could finance the deal. I decided to accommodate their request. However, the bank found a few items not to code and required a last minute scramble to find a carpenter to put up railings and satisfy the bank. This all happened within three days of the closing date. We got it done with fast thinking and trusted contacts in the area.
Wellesley is a highly sought after town with very little inventory and opportunities are rare. This beautifully updated center entrance colonial came to market. The deal ended up with me negotiating directly with the owner and his wife. They were both big Green Bay Packer football fans who were to play the Patriots in 4 weeks. Determined not to let this deal slip through my buyers hands, we came to a mutual agreement on a price. Patriots lost the game, but we won the bid and got our offer accepted.
Adirondack style post and beam with vaulted ceilings and huge picture windows over looking Lake Sunapee. Additional structures include a large dock and rare boathouse. After securing this property on Lake Sunapee the key to listing and presenting to the public was a good clean up and washing its full size cathedral ceiling and lofting windows over looking the lake. Prior to the open house some leaf blowing around the property in the morning, and my secret weapon….freshly baked corn bread smelling like home sweet home. Sold the first weekend!
Newly refurbished condo located atop of Sunapee Harbor. A great retirement community with services and extra curricular activities such as tennis courts, pickle ball, heated swimming pool and lawn games at the foot of beautiful Lake Sunapee. No condo of this nature had been sold for over 3 years so no helpful comparable for an accurate market sale price. I discussed the perfect range with the owner and without over pricing it they got their full asking price!
