Our family owned this property since 1986 so well over 30 years. We wanted to sell for a couple of years and understandably achieve the maximum price for our asset on an unconditional basis.
We advertised our asset ourselves and via other agents at a high price hoping that either someone would pay it or we would achieve a good offer. We did not manage to achieve a sale and experienced time wasters and a number of abortive transactions.
We finally instructed Acorn’s Commercial & Development department to market the property. Acorn advised us on a marketing strategy which included where to set the guide price. They carried out marketing and reported over 10 offers for our consideration, also advising us on the offers received. Contracts were exchanged with the chosen bidder shortly after on an unconditional basis with a 28 day completion. The price achieved was over 10% in excess of the guide price, which we were pleased with.
Acorn managed the sale acting in a professional manor and giving good advice which resulted in an outcome we were pleased with.

Acorn was an essential partner in the sale of our piece of land for development. Their unfailing professionalism, local knowledge, commitment and attention to detail throughout the sale process brought about a great result for us. I highly recommend Acorn to anyone wishing to sell their land efficiently and at the best possible value.

We’d like to thank Adam Miles for his input, work and energy enabling our property transaction to reach a positive conclusion. Adam worked tirelessly in a very difficult Covid-19 situation, all parties were kept up to date at all times and decisions taken were relayed. We would have no hesitation in recommending the professional services of Acorn as our selling agents.

We decided we wanted to sell this site and reinvest funds in other parts of the Rose Bruford College operation. We instructed Acorn’s Commercial & Development to act for us and manage the sale of the site as we needed to ensure that as a charity we had achieved best value.
Acorn advised us on a marketing strategy which included where to set the guide price. This was lower than some direct offers we had received. We were slightly unsure of this but took the advice. Acorn went back to all the parties who had previously expressed interest/made offers to us. The marketing they carried out was comprehensive. It resulted in 12 offers being presented to us. We concluded an unconditional sale at a price 17% in excess of the guide and 13% in excess of the direct offer we had received.
Acorn managed the sale very professionally, giving good advice which resulted in an outcome with which we were pleased.

I had some doubts about the likelihood of letting my commercial unit in the current covid climate but the commercial team where very pro-active and an early flurry of viewings brought an offer at a rent well above what we were achieving.
Can I make special mention of Izaak Thomas, I have known a lot of negotiators over the years but it is not often that I have come across one who has worked so hard and diligently for his client. He has kept me informed on progress almost daily and whenever I asked for something it was done immediately.
