Smart Minded Mates

🤝 Meet Phill – and His Smart-Minded Mates

Phill owns a rural property he wants to sell — and so do two of his friends, Garry and Steve.
All three properties are in the same area, and all need a bit of work to be market-ready.

Real estate agents quoted them $15,000 each in commission — that’s $45,000 combined, just to get listed.

Instead, the three mates made a clever move.
They decided to team up, save big, and hire Rundown to Ready together.

What We Did:

Repaired, cleaned, and styled all three properties at once

Lived onsite and handled inspections professionally

Coordinated access for buyers without the need for agents

Gave each home a unique visual identity while creating a regional buzz

💡 How They Paid:

✔ One contract under Phill’s name
✔ A single payment of $2,000 deposit + $5,000 milestone (week 4)
✔ Each mate chipped in — just $2,333 each

---

💰 What They Saved:

❌ $45,000 in total agent fees
✅ Only $7,000 for three full property transformations
✅ $38,000 saved collectively

📢 Important Note:

Rundown to Ready is not a licensed real estate agency or property valuer.
We do not provide pricing advice or market evaluations.
We provide access, presentation, and support onsite — and direct all buyer negotiations straight back to the owners.

Why It Worked:

The trio sold their properties privately, without separate agent agreements.
They shared costs, maximised presentation, and even played their properties off one another to boost urgency in buyers.
The least popular sold first — the rest followed quickly, and everyone walked away ahead.
