Jonas Woods W Condo Sales Price
As you know, Texas is an undisclosed sales price state. But a little birdie in the know tells me the 9285 square foot unit sold for $5.8 million. Impressive reduction, but still a great net. Carolyn Shamis brought the buyer (name not yet know, stay tuned) and here’s how she did it: Carolyn heard that another agent was looking for a home for a client in Preston Hollow with land, tennis court and pool. In other words, a spread. She got on a program “where you can look at people’s backyards,” she told me, and narrowed the search down to 12 properties with the necessary criteria. Then she wrote nice letters to all twelve of those estate owners: “Dear Trophy Property Owner, I have a bazillionaire client seeking a multi-acre estate in your beautiful area up to $15 million who wishes to pay cash. Don’t be an idiot, Wall Street melted, call me.” She sent the letter out Monday, got some downright nasty responses by Friday. (”How dare you contact me! My estate is NOT for sale.”) But on Saturday — and these stories are literally why I wake up in the morning — she gets an email from one of the twelve letters who ended up being the buyer of Woods’ penthouse. And by the way, that W pad is now this buyer’s weekend home.
