Lucas helped the reviewer sell this property

Friendly Bloke

Lucas approached us after selling a property across the road. He got me excited with talk of some big numbers our property could sell for. We signed on. Coincidentally, a buyer wrote me a letter and dropped it in our mailbox, expressing interest in buying our property. I referred them to Lucas. We held an open house on a rainy day that flopped. Lucas came back to me with an offer from the buyers I referred to him. A little back and forth negotiating, then a price was agreed upon. I felt Lucas was keen to get the sale quickly rather than to work for a better price. I had an agent looking after the place while it was for sale. I passed on her contact details to Lucas' office, but it seems they forgot it and instead called me each time they wanted keys or to get in. I wondered if I had been heard. We probably got a decent price considering the environment, but I'm left wondering what might have happened with more time and effort, and if the value proposition in using an agent is still a valid one in 2023.
