I initiated discussions with the property owner regarding the marketing and sales process for a plaza office exceeding 500 m² located on Barbaros Boulevard.
After inspecting the property in person, rather than simply assessing its price based on current market conditions, I prepared a comprehensive analysis that integrated the property's location, physical attributes, commercial potential, target buyer profile, and sales strategy.
I presented this valuation and marketing analysis to the owner with the aim of reaching the right buyer and accurately positioning the property to reflect its true potential.
During our meeting, I learned that he was a member of one of Turkey’s prominent families and possessed significant experience across various business sectors.
He expressed that he had closely followed the approach I demonstrated and the analysis I prepared; he was particularly impressed that I viewed the property not merely as a sales commodity, but through the lenses of value, positioning, and a targeted buyer strategy.
It was especially meaningful to me that he remarked on having encountered a real estate professional with such a strategic approach for the first time.
However, what made this meeting truly valuable to me was not merely the business opportunity regarding the sale of a 500+ m² plaza office.
It was incredibly rewarding that the majority of our conversation focused on sharing experiences gained in the business world and exchanging diverse perspectives, rather than centering solely on the real estate sector.
The fact that we could share not just a commercial proposal but also experiences and perspectives during the meeting reinforced my belief that real estate consultancy goes far beyond merely acquiring listings and closing sales.
He indicated that he would review the proposal I prepared in greater detail and get back to me later. It was also gratifying to hear him express openness to other business proposals I might present in the future.
The most significant insight I took away from this meeting was this:
A successful sale in the premium commercial real estate sector depends not only on setting the right price but also on understanding the property's true value, positioning it correctly, and devising a strategy to reach the right buyer.
I believe that this approach is a key differentiator in the sales process, particularly for large-scale plaza offices located on central commercial arteries like Barbaros Boulevard in Beşiktaş.
A never-ending journey from merely looking to truly seeing.
