When the owners of 34 Wonga Road, Noranda, decided it was time to sell, they knew exactly who to call. Nine years ago, I had sold them this very home, and they remembered how the presentation, particularly the twilight viewing, had captivated them. They admitted that they ended up paying a little more than they had initially planned, but it was worth it. Now, they wanted me to recreate that magic for them, ensuring that potential buyers would see the home in the same captivating light.

Setting the Stage for Success

Knowing that the owners were committed to achieving a top price, we sat down to discuss a tailored strategy. They were fully on board with investing in the presentation and marketing to make sure 34 Wonga Road stood out. From our past experience, we both understood that every detail matters, and with the right approach, we could attract buyers willing to pay a premium.

Preparing the Home

The home already had great features—spacious living areas, a modern kitchen, and a stunning alfresco area perfect for entertaining. Plus, it had the added appeal of a beautiful pool, a major draw for families. Still, to maximize its potential, we decided to make a few enhancements. The owners were incredibly supportive and proactive, agreeing to tidy up the garden, polish the outdoor areas, and freshen up the interior to create a welcoming, pristine environment.

A Focus on Presentation

With the owners’ commitment to the process, we planned a marketing strategy that highlighted what made 34 Wonga Road special. The key was to recreate the success we had nine years ago. This meant bringing back the twilight viewings, which had previously made a memorable impact. Twilight viewings allow potential buyers to see the home at its best—when the ambient light enhances the mood and highlights the features of the property.

The owners spared no effort, ensuring the home was immaculate for each viewing. They refreshed the garden, polished every surface, and even added subtle touches like outdoor lighting to make the alfresco area shine. This commitment paid off, as it helped buyers imagine themselves enjoying the same warm, inviting atmosphere.

The Twilight Viewing: A Highlight of the Campaign

The highlight of our campaign was the twilight viewing event. The owners recalled how this approach had worked on them, and they were keen to give other potential buyers the same experience. We arranged for the home to be presented under soft, warm lighting, with the alfresco area and pool illuminated to create a perfect backdrop. The effect was mesmerizing, turning the backyard into an oasis and the living spaces into a cozy, inviting retreat.

The turnout for the twilight opening was incredible. We attracted a mix of young professionals, families, and even retirees, all eager to see the home in this unique setting. It was a bustling evening, with guests exploring every corner, and the owners’ efforts in presenting the home were evident. Every detail, from the clean and stylish interior to the well-manicured garden, played a role in making a strong impression.

Strategic Marketing Across Platforms

Of course, the success of any sale goes beyond just one event. We needed to ensure that 34 Wonga Road reached a wide audience. Our marketing campaign was comprehensive, using a blend of traditional and digital methods to attract a diverse pool of buyers. We employed:

• High-quality photography: Capturing the home in its best light, especially during twilight, to evoke a sense of warmth and elegance.
• Engaging editorial content: Writing up a narrative that emphasized the unique features of the home, including its spacious layout, modern kitchen, and entertainment-friendly alfresco area.
• Social media outreach: Creating buzz on social platforms, showcasing the twilight setup and sharing stories that drew interest beyond just the local community.
• Letter drops to the local community: Personally inviting neighbors to the twilight viewing, as local word-of-mouth can be incredibly powerful.
• Targeted online advertising: Reaching potential buyers based on their preferences and search behaviors, ensuring that the home appeared to those actively looking in the area.

The owners were impressed by how well the campaign was executed, appreciating that the approach was just as meticulous and effective as it had been nine years earlier. They felt confident that every potential buyer would see the home at its best.

A Commitment to Selling

The dedication of the owners was evident throughout the process. They understood that a polished presentation could mean the difference between a good price and a great price. Every recommendation I made, from staging tips to minor repairs, was taken seriously and acted upon. Their commitment ensured that when buyers walked in, they were greeted by a home that felt ready to move into—welcoming, stylish, and with everything in place.

This partnership was crucial. We worked together as a team, aligning our efforts to create the best possible outcome. This sense of collaboration, combined with their willingness to invest in making the home shine, was a key factor in attracting serious buyers who could see the value of the property.

The Result: A Record Sale

The results spoke for themselves. With strong marketing, strategic viewings, and the owners’ dedicated efforts, we received multiple offers soon after the twilight event. The competitive atmosphere helped drive up the final price, achieving a record sale in the area for this type of property.

Buyers appreciated the opportunity to see the home in such a beautiful setting, and many commented on how the twilight viewing made it easier to imagine entertaining guests or relaxing by the pool. The atmosphere created by that event, coupled with the seamless presentation, encouraged potential buyers to see the true value of 34 Wonga Road, beyond just its physical attributes.

Looking Back: A Testament to Partnership

Reflecting on the process, I realized that the success of this sale was a true testament to the partnership between myself and the sellers. They trusted my guidance, invested in the necessary preparations, and gave me the freedom to execute a campaign that would create competition and attract serious buyers. Their commitment to presenting the home was key, and it was their effort that ultimately made the difference.

Nine years ago, they fell in love with 34 Wonga Road because of how it was presented. Now, they were able to pass that feeling on to the next owners, knowing that the home had been showcased in the best possible way. From beginning to end, this sale was about working together to achieve a common goal, and the result was a price that exceeded expectations.
