Property Detail Context
| Property | 1126 Grant in Venice |
| Sold Price | $2,120,000 |

Challenge
In a competitive Venice market, the goal was not simply to list 1126 Grant. It was to launch the property in a way that would catch immediate attention, create urgency, and give buyers a clear reason to act. Pricing too high could have softened the first wave of interest; pricing with discipline could turn that attention into leverage.
For the seller, the key was trusting the strategy. A more competitive launch price can feel counterintuitive when the goal is to maximize the final number, but the plan was not to underprice the home. It was to meet the market, create momentum, and let buyer competition drive the result upward.
Solution
Pardee used an intentional pricing strategy designed to bring the largest pool of qualified buyers through the door early. The home was priced to meet the market, not chase it, then supported with polished photography and clear positioning so buyers could immediately see the value and move with confidence.
Results
The strategy worked. 1126 Grant generated multiple offers and ultimately sold $325,000 over asking.
This sale became a clear example of how the right pricing strategy can outperform a higher launch price. By pricing for attention and pairing that with excellent photos and positioning, Pardee created the kind of buyer competition that moved the final number well above asking.
I give my strongest recommendation to Tami Pardee and her team at Pardee (Properties). They are highly professional, efficient, and collaborative—and they exceeded our expectations at every stage. Their negotiation skills were outstanding, ultimately securing top dollar for our home. We were managing the sale of an inherited property located more than 500 miles away, and the home required significant preparation. The Pardee (Properties) team moved quickly and decisively, coordinating every detail to position the property for maximum value. They brought in a trusted network of skilled professionals—including painters, plumbers, handymen, landscapers, and staging experts—and managed the entire process seamlessly. Thanks to their expertise and execution, the home was sold in less than two months. What truly distinguishes this team is their strategic approach and deep knowledge of the market. They are exceptional communicators—proactive, transparent, and highly organized—keeping us fully informed while making it easy for us to participate in key decisions from a distance. Their attention to detail was evident throughout every phase of the transaction, and their coordination with the escrow company helped streamline and expedite the closing process. Simply put, Tami Pardee and her team deliver results. We recommend Pardee (Properties) without hesitation—and only wish we had more homes for them to sell.
