Case Studies

Country Living Case Studies

  1. Off market Private Acquisition & Disposal

    Objective - To Identify and Acquire a Private House

    Having been approached by a client to find a rural property within a specific area, Coverwood Country Living identified such an option that was being marketed off market. The house was acquired whilst their own property was offered discreetly and achieved a sum well above the true market value.

    By acting as a ‘go between’ the client’s negotiating position has been significantly strengthened whilst also being able to deal with the disposal of their existing house at arm’s length.

  2. Letting Advice

    Objective - Advice on Securing a Tenant

    Coverwood Country Living are currently in the process of advising a client who wishes to rent out their rural property. Advice has been given on how to raise the monthly rental, tenancy agreements, insurance and maintenance. The property is about to be placed on the market using Coverwood Country Residential Living’s extensive experience.

Commercial Case Studies

    Objective – Search and Acquisition of Alternative Freehold Premises

    Coverwood Commercial were instructed to identify a freehold office building in the Woking, Guildford or Godalming market place. Following an in depth search report various viewings were carried out and a building identified. A tender was submitted following an initial survey (at no cost to the client) of the building. The bid was successful but was subsequently withdrawn due to a more suitable building being found in a neighbouring town. Terms were agreed with a significant discount of £200,000 negotiated off the asking price. Agent, developer and industry contacts were vital elements of this project.
