Dear Peter
Thank you for considering New Zealand Sotheby’s International Realty to market and represent your property.
In this instance, I am providing you with what we term a Short Form Appraisal. An appraisal where we cover the most important aspect homeowners want to know, that being value, but not necessarily all the detail required or information desired before coming to the open market.
New Zealand Sotheby’s International Realty has built its reputation through results and quality listings, culminating in a strong following and database of buyers for mid to high-end homes. While property is our business we understand it can be more complex than first considered. If you have anything not covered in this appraisal please reach out with questions, comments, or queries.
Thank you again for the opportunity to provide you with this appraisal.
Kind regards

• Being a new build with a reputable company, you get the security of the Master Builders guarantee.

The ultimate sale price of your property will relate to a range of factors including:

• The number of comparable properties for sale at the same time.

• Working with knowledgable and trusted sales professionals.
• Negotiation skillset.
• The presentation of your property.
• Your marketing plan. Prepared 26 November 2024

The appraisal range provided is based on the property having full consents and no remedial work being required.
I am happy to discuss these options to ensure you are happy with which method is suitable to your home and unique circumstances.
i. Bring to market and work our existing database, qualified buyers circa and over $980,000
ii. Provide to the Sotheby’s International Realty network, New Zealand consultants / offices, and use the reach of SIR.com.
iii. Launch to active buyers who will see the property listed on New Zealand based websites nzsothebysrealty.com, realestate.co.nz and trademe.co.nz
i. No price is ever required to be provided on the property when enquiry occurs. Willing buyer meets willing seller.
ii. Sales Associate should provide guides to purchasers which are statements of fact. This could be either the C.V, offers turned down previously, or invite buyers from a certain price level.
iii. Used early in coming to the market, pre-Tender or Auction campaign or alternatively post campaign while offers or interest are being exhausted.
• Definite time-frame on sale process.
• Promotes the property – ‘you can’t sell a secret’. With a strong marketing campaign, this can promote the property to attract the most attention.
• Creates competitive and urgent atmosphere, attracting a broad range of buyers.
• Bidders compete against each other – not with the Vendor.
• Provides comfort and transparency to purchasers.
• Promotes integrity – equal opportunity.
• Purchasers at Auction must be in a cash unconditional position to bid. If the hammer drops, the property is sold.
• Vendor has control, can dictate terms and conditions, sets a reserve price they are happy to sell at.
• Unconditional buyers only which for higher priced properties can reduce the number of parties bidding.
• Public process for the Vendor, not every property (or Vendor) suits Auction.
(EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST)
• Requires parties to register their interest in the property and present an offer within the designated time frame.
• Unearths buyers who are interested in commencing negotiations for the purpose of the property.
• Invites the purchaser to submit expressions of interest on their terms, not Vendor terms.
• Allows the Vendor to look at a number of offers, allows the market to indicate the value of the property.
• Not widely known as a method of sale and a softer approach than Tender.
• Can limit enquiry and potentially indicate the Vendor is not highly motivated to sell.
• Definite time-frame on sale process but as opposed to Auction, retains confidentiality between purchasers and allows the Vendor to deal with the preferred party, should they wish.
• Creates competition in the unknown, people are not limited by what others are prepared to offer, and pay what they are comfortable to secure the property.
• Offers may include conditions (e.g. subject to sale/ finance/builders report) or trades as part of the purchase price, but our aim is still to work purchasers into a cash unconditional position.
• Especially suits properties that require ‘in depth’ investigation and due diligence.
• Vendor has control, having the ability to work with the Tender of choice, or not at all.
• Attracts good enquiry and feedback of value that the market sees. If does not sell at Tender allows accurate pricing post.
• Offers submitted at close of Tender are live and valid for a period of five days. They cannot be withdrawn.
• There is no defined sale date, which reduces the ability to generate urgency to bring parties to the negotiating table with serious intent.
• No price is ever required to be provided on the property when enquiry occurs. Willing buyer meets willing seller.
• Sales Associate should provide guides to purchasers which are statements of fact. This could be either the C.V., or offers turned down previously
• With the approval of Vendor can be used in conjunction with a ‘buyers from’ guide. A minimum budget qualifying someone to view the home, but not a number where an offer would be accepted.
• Used early in coming to the market, pre-Tender or Auction campaign or alternatively post campaign while offers or interest are being exhausted.
• Properties are advertised with a price. This method of sale still allows the buyer to negotiate with you on the price.
• Buyers are clearly aware of a Vendor’s expectations.
• Recent market statistics and Sales Associate/ Vendor consultation set the price ahead of the market.
• This may allow for a quick sale and targets buyers within a given price bracket.
• Purchasers love to see a fixed price. The further away a purchaser is from a property (think international) the more confidence they have to travel and view with a fixed price.
• Realistic pricing generally produces a reasonably quick sale.
• Can very easily create a price barrier and get no enquiry.
• If enquiry is slow, generally the main reason is price, the only way to go is down.
• There is no defined sale date, which reduces the ability to generate urgency to bring parties to the negotiating table with serious intent.
• Generates enquiry from buyers, generally through e-mail to the Sales Associate, which then in turn allows dialogue to begin, and a database to be built of interested parties in the home.
• A price is required to be provided on the property when enquiry occurs, which the Vendor would sell at today.
• The database can then be contacted as circumstances change, which may be method of sale, price, Open Homes.
In our experience not all properties are equal, and no situation is the same.
If we are your preferred agents we are happy to discuss and negotiate a fee structure and marketing package that is suitable to you and your individual property requirements. You don’t mind where your buyer comes from, as long as you achieve fair or better value for your home, and in a time frame, you are comfortable with. Through local expertise, a national footprint, and global reach we offer you a cost-effective method in which to reach the widest possible buyer pool.

Your property will be exposed to the widest possible audience no matter what marketing budget you choose.
We work closely with our Asia Pacific network of 50 offices including locations in Singapore and nationally across Australia.
