Rob utilized his commercial knowledge and skill to market the property to a different demographic of buyers wishing to utilize the land for a distribution center. What started out as a $5 Million listing was quickly bid up by several interested developers to a final price of $7.35 Million. Rob represented both sides and he negotiated to be a part of the buyer’s leasing team when the proposed project is completed and continue the relationship with their development group.
Office broker-manager Bruce Kallen has extensive experience in commercial sales and has mentored many of the agents, including Rob, and has empowered them to increase their business. Bruce stated, “Rob has an exceptional work ethic and is a very motivated agent for us.”
“He recognizes the opportunity and is not afraid to go after new business, including commercial and I am extremely proud of his progress with First Team High Desert”.
Rob mentioned “I am very grateful to Janna Albert, my co-worker here at First Team High Desert who entrusted me with her long-time friend and Seller of this property” “Bruce and myself put our best efforts into this transaction to get the highest possible price for her friend and client.” In addition to skillfully representing both parties, Rob also negotiated a 6-month ability for the long term family member tenant to occupy the home until a replacement property could be acquired. It should be noted that this transaction took almost a year, from start to finish, but in the end, all participants were very pleased with the phenomenal sale result.
The Seller commented to Rob they were extremely thankful and the sale for them was life-changing. Rob can be reached personally at 909-200-9102.
