The Art of Selling Prime Property in 2025: Strategy Over Speed

We are long past the era of glossy brochures and educated guesses. Today, it’s about precision. My fellow contributor, Simon Gates, has turned property data into fine art, using those insights and targeted direct mail to connect with buyers who matter. This isn’t spray-and-pray marketing. It’s about intelligent reach.

On the presentation front, my other writing comrade, Elaine Penhaul and the Lemon and Lime Interiors team, continue to prove that staging is not just nice to have. It is a critical lever in achieving faster sales and stronger offers. In prime property, where emotion often trumps logic, the visual narrative makes all the difference. Yet, far too many homes go to market looking like afterthoughts.

Insights from Unchained’s The Voice of the Agent confirm what many of us already suspected. Agents grapple with inconsistent portal strategies, vendor education gaps, and patchy adoption of modern marketing tools. The disconnect between ambition and execution remains stubborn.

That’s precisely why I created 30 Years of Marketing in One Day. It’s a masterclass in applying timeless principles to modern property challenges. We walk through what works and why, from brand building to behavioural nudges.

In this market, presentation sets the stage, positioning shapes perception, and patience secures the right outcome. These aren’t new ideas, but they are more relevant than ever. The agents who master them will thrive.
