The Property
A spacious four-bedroom detached home on one of Solihull’s most recognisable and desirable roads. The property offered generous room proportions, a large rear garden, and excellent transport links — a combination that consistently attracts strong demand from family buyers.
The Challenge
The vendor was relocating overseas for work and needed a reliable, efficient sale with minimal disruption to their busy schedule. They required an agent who could manage the entire process proactively, including conducting viewings on their behalf and keeping them informed at every stage.
“Being abroad during the sale could have been stressful, but Arden managed everything brilliantly. I always felt completely in control, even from the other side of the world.”
— The Vendor, Stratford Road, Solihull
Our Approach
We took full responsibility for the property’s presentation and marketing from day one. Our team conducted a pre-photography preparation visit, arranged for a professional cleaner, and liaised directly with the vendor’s neighbour — who kindly agreed to hold a spare key — to facilitate viewings.
Our professional photography and virtual tour allowed buyers to fully assess the property before booking a physical viewing, which significantly improved the quality of enquiries we received and reduced unnecessary appointments.
The Campaign
The property launched during the traditionally quieter February market, but our active buyer database and targeted Rightmove Premium listing ensured strong early visibility. We received 12 viewing requests in the first week and conducted all appointments personally, providing detailed feedback to the vendor via WhatsApp after each visit.
The Outcome
The property sold for £450,000 — 2.3% above the guide price — to a local family who had been searching in the area for over six months. The sale was agreed in 15 days and completed without any issues, with the vendor successfully managing the entire process remotely from their new base overseas.
