The Sanborn Team was recently the listing agent for a
celebrity property in the gated community known as The Summit. A property under
conservatorship, the listing and sale were managed much like a probate and
subject to court confirmation.
Not surprisingly, celebrity-owned properties, wherever they
are and whomever the star, attract abundant interest — from the media, the
public and even from other real estate agents. Everyone wants a look inside.
People want to know the star’s secrets.
But, as listing agents, our job is not only to get the
property sold, but also to protect the privacy of the owner. In this case, that
meant assisting the conservator to make the most of the property, carefully
monitoring access to the residence, marketing it aggressively and representing
the conservator and conservatee in court.
It was a strategy that worked. The property was placed on
the market for $2.995 million and sold for $4.2 million.
