Hi there,

Thank you for your query!
The transaction very much depends on the condition of your unit, location and elevation level, hence, the price can be subjective. I have handled the sales of myriad of units - having also transacted an EM unit in Bishan at a record price which was published in the National Newspaper (article on website).

If you would like assistance in this matter, please do contact me for a discussion for me to advise you further and share in depth price analysis details on your block and surrounding vicinity (capital % gains). More details on your end will enable me to churn out a more comprehensive, exact and thorough financial calculations with exact figures. Furthermore, I would be able to share more on the varied marketing strategies and mediums through which your property might get maximum exposure as well as study the recent up to date transaction caveats of similar sized units in vicinity and hence, present a sales and elevation report to advise further. There are many marketing techniques -online (number of Portals) , physical means ( professional photography /videography) and highly crossed networking with other agents to refer their clients. It is an intricate yet streamlined process.

Employing a seasoned agent will get you in return- sincere 100% commitment, succinct coordination of viewings, extreme grip and control on price and avoidance of price wars and ill practices. Do Visit my website for my recent accolades and testimonials@ www.kumarrai.com.

Throughout the whole process of selling and looking for our next property, he has always acted very professionally that makes my wife and I feel at ease and assured.

-- HDB Hougang 4-RM Sellers Mdm. Ng & Jean --

Ivan was the first and only agent that we met before engaging him as our exclusive agent. At the first meeting, Ivan meticulously went through the entire sale process. As we were not familiar with the procedures, he spent extra time to explain what was required from us and what we should expect.

After a week of preparation, Ivan came to take photographs, and once the advertisements were up, we had interested parties coming to view the apartment the very next day. Within a week, we had secured an offer from the buyer. Ivan was reliable and responsive, and he made the entire process smooth and hassle free Read More

Dear Sir/Mdm,

It is definitely possible to sell at a higher price if we implement a comprehensive and holistic marketing plan. I have helped a lot of my clients sold their place at prices above the valuation.

Please feel free to contact me so that I can share with you more about my track records and more importantly the marketing plan and strategies that have enabled me to deliver record-high prices for my clients consistently.

I was featured recently on Council for Estate Agencies (CEA) Newsletter:

Testimonial from Satisfied Clients

“I would like to recommend Nick Tan from SRI. Before we engaged Nick, we were working with another agent from a very popular property agency in February 2017. We decided to terminate the contract after 5 weeks of zero viewings and no paper advertisements. Basically he was just waiting for phone calls. We engaged Nick on 20th April and by 10th of May, our unit was sold off. Why Nick? 1. He has good marketing strategies 2. He always kept us posted on what he did (communications!) 3. He made sure we understand the current market situation but he will consistently reassure us that the unit can be sold off 4. He is not greedy and trusting 5. He walks the talk”
Peter & Wendy (Property Seller)

I write to commend Nick Tan (R040814C). When my husband and I first met Nick, we were impressed by his drive, commitment, business acumen and strategical thinking, and decided to engage him. We were not disappointed. Nick sourced for prospective quality buyers in a targeted methodical fashion and was effective in connecting us with serious buyers, notwithstanding the fact that the search primarily took place over Dec – Feb (a traditional lull period). Throughout the transaction, he also gave us helpful advice in various aspects; the advice reflected his personal experience and expertise and was not simply regurgitated from public sources without any value-add. Further, Nick went beyond the call of duty of a competent professional. He had a sense of humanity in the way he interacted with myself and the other parties to the transaction such as my parents. As an example, my newborn daughter was warded into A&E on the completion date of the transaction; the care and concern that Nick showed went beyond the scope of work of an estate agent. I commend Nick for his capabilities and character, and would certainly wish to engage him for future property transactions.
Weilun & Benita (Property Seller)

“We are very grateful to Nick for his extensive marketing efforts. With his comprehensive marketing plan, he helped us to achieve a record selling price within 2 weeks of listing our property for sale! We highly recommend his service to anyone who is keen to sell their properties.”
Mr & Mrs Wong (Property Seller)

“Nick has conducted himself ethically and professionally when handling the sales of our property. Thanks to his patience and perseverance, we managed to secure a sales price beyond our expectations. We are very happy and satisfied with his services and will definitely recommend him to our friends and family in the future.”
Mr & Mrs Tan (Seller of Inter-Terrace House)

“Nick provides a delightful customer experience from day one when I engage him as my agent to look for a flat of my choice to the completion of the deal. He is competent, resourceful and has a pleasant manner to work with. He is the Agent of my choice in dealing with properties and I would highly recommend him to others who would appreciate an agent that takes care and can give the customer a peaceful mind.”

Dear sir/mdm,

Possibility is there and most agents will definitely pitch to you that they have past transactions that were sold above valuation including myself.

Nevertheless, before we go into that, we need to look into the fundamentals first. Importantly, there number of comparable units selling in the market currently as well as number of transactions in the past, how does this work out? If the number of transactions on average per month in the past 12 months is significant and there are not many units available for sale in the market, I'd say the possibility is relatively high to sell above the valuation because there is evident of high demand and low supply.

Otherwise, when buyers are given choices to select, then we need to look into how can we do to enhance the sellability of house and justify for the premium being commanded.

Hope the above helps!

I have been in the real estate business since 2009, with more than 10years of experience serving the Singapore real estate market.

I am very active in the residential segment of Singapore real estate market, having transacted hundreds of deals from HDBs to private condominiums and landed properties in Singapore, and have handled many unique cases in sales and purchases as well as rental deals.

Over the years, I have also established a network reaching out to more than 9,400 expatriates, bringing my market presence to both in and outside of Singapore. This has created an additional exposure when I manage my client's portfolios, on top of the conventional on and offline platforms, where other estate agents are relying on. This has allowed me to consistently convert leads into results.

With an evolving market, where change is the only constant, I have also been investing in upgrading of my knowledge and skills sets to improve myself and meet the demands of current and future market.

Hi
The valuation in whatever sources is only an estimated valuation based on recent transaction prices of that particular area. I have came across a unit that I purchased for my client where the indicative valuation is too low due to lack of past transaction records of similar units in that area and we end up purchasing it at a higher price. In terms of individual flat's marketability, factors such as interior, orientation, floor level and privacy of the unit plays a huge part in the demand of the unit. Simple economics of higher demand meaning higher selling price applies here. I could not advise you further without knowing the details of your flat. Do contact me at 93375051  for a free and non obligatory discussions on this.
