Hi,
Exclusivity is the best way to market any property. Giving it to more than one agent means it will never be marketed properly. If even after 12months, you still have a problem means there could be a lot of factors behind it like price, demand for that area etc

So, you would need to get your current agents honest opinions and think about giving an exclusive to another agent who will be hungry to close the sale.

Please contact me so that I can be of further assistance.
Cheers!

Hi Sir/Mdm,

Sorry to hear about your situation. It is usual that it is taking so long to secure a buyer for your unit. There are situations when there are more than 1 salesperson being engaged and nobody is investing significant efforts into sourcing a buyer.

For most situations, it can be due to the following 2 reasons.

1. Price is not right
2. Marketing is not done properly

You should have an open discussion with your agents to find out what is the main issue.

I have assisted clients in the same situation before and usually I will find out the root of the problem and are usually able to secure buyers for their properties. Please feel free to contact me so that I can gather more information from you and assist you further!

Testimonial from my Clients
Nick is THE absolute best agent, guide to navigating the property market in Singapore. From selling to buying, he manages to get the absolute highest when selling and negotiators to the absolute lowest when purchasing. (So double win for me!). In fact, I bought my new home at the absolute lowest transaction across all the transacting homes. Most agents would just give vanilla advice, he puts scrutiny into every potential choice we were making by advising potential gains, rental yields, back up plans. I think we went through a whole list of more than 20 + before narrowing down to a few high potential properties! Super responsive to our questions and handheld us through the process and even answered questions in the middle of the night. Would absolutely recommend working with Nick for anyone looking to buy, sell or just advice!
Kenneth (Seller and Buyer) Jan 2025

Nick was introduced to me by a friend who learned that my previous property agent wasn’t meeting my expectations. During our first phone call, Nick quickly grasped my concerns and provided a detailed financial plan the next day. Since switching to Nick, selling my house has been much more relaxed. His virtual tour and informative fact sheet eliminated the need for my family and me to be constantly present for viewings by unsuitable buyers.
Nick was invaluable in purchasing my next property. He sourced units within my budget and analysed price trends of condo projects I was interested in. With Nick’s assistance, the buying process was seamless, and he expertly coordinated the sale of my current unit with the purchase of the next. Kudos to Nick for his outstanding service and advice!
Eileen Chen (Seller) June 2024

During Nick’s presentation to us, he showed confidence and resourcefulness. He showed us his various methods of reaching out to potential buyers instead of just relying on Propertyguru. He also saw the potential of our home to sell at our projected price. Where other agents deem impossible to achieve, he did his analysis and deems it reasonable and achievable. Nick proves trustworthy. From time to time, Nick will update us on the progress and on any viewing. He will filter buyers who could not meet our asking price and provide update and advice on the offers. We are grateful that he helps us to negotiate for a good price for our home. In summary, Nick is dedicated, resourceful, trustworthy and willing to take challenges.
Sunny Ng (Seller) April 2024

Selling our house was a pretty stressful ordeal, as we have already committed to buying our new home and hence have a timeline to meet. Losing a substantial deposit and worse still, not getting our dream home caused many sleepless nights as we are nearing our deadline. I am very glad we have decided to switch to Nick and seek his help after the dismal performance of our first agent. Not only is Read More

hi,

12 months is quite a long time to market a unit without securing a buyer.
This could be due to a few possible reasons:
1. The pricing strategy may not be aligned with current market conditions.
2. The current agents may not be putting in sufficient effort or adopting the right approach to actively market your property.

I would be happy to assist you in finding a serious buyer. Please feel free to review some of my client testimonials below for your consideration. I look forward to the opportunity to help you achieve a successful sale.

This platform does not allow me to contact you directly so kindly contact me at https://wa.me/6597261112 I would be glad to assist you further.

Thank you and best regards,

Testimonial from Satisfied Clients
-- My husband and I wish to commend the sincere attitude and good customer service rendered by your staff Jenny, who handled the sale of our 5R HDB flat early this year. We have met several agents but none as genuine as Jenny. Being a seller agent, she took our interest at heart in handling the sale, unlike other agents who are self-interest. Jenny is punctual and prompt in the whole dealings and we were convinced that such an agent is hard for find nowadays. Jenny is a trustworthy, honest, sincere and hardworking agent. We are happy with her service and would gladly recommend her to our friends in future. Jenny is an asset to Propnex and the organisation should value her. Thank you Jenny for her efforts--
Mr and Mrs Soo (HDB seller)

--Jenny is very committed and responsive to her clients and she has spent hours updating them and looking out for great deals and even tailor-made property proposal geared towards their needs. Will certainly refer her to others and will definitely approach her again in her future--
Nick and Kim (New launch buyer)

--Jenny did a great job helping my wife and I sell our unit. She took active steps to walk our neighbourhood to understand what she was marketing. During the marketing period, she managed potential buyers and provided timely updates and recommendations so we could stay on top of the process. Overall, Jenny was professional and helped us to achieve a positive result which we are very thankful for--
Aaron ( HDB seller)

--Jenny was very passionate and went the extra miles to help. Thanks to her professional advice and recommendations, I had finally found my dream home--
Yvonne (New launch buyer)

--Appreciate Jenny's clear and prompt communication style with us and other stakeholders. She was also patient and client-centered throughout the process of finding a home that met our criteria. As a first-time home buyer, we appreciate how she went out of her way to explain the process and answer questions we had--

Hi,

Sorry to hear that your unit has been marketed without significant progress.

A unit’s saleability is usually linked to two root problems:
1. Marketing issue
2. Pricing issue

By marketing on the few main property portals at the right price, you should be able to receive at least a healthy amount of viewings & offers over a few months.

Having your agent provide regular feedback is also important to make the necessary adjustments. Unfortunately sometimes having more than one agent marketing could also result in none of them actually being accountable for the sale.

If you are looking to extend your marketing outreach on top of these usual marketing platforms, that is something my team specialises in.

My team and I have helped many property owners hit record sale prices (8/10 homes) using our proven marketing strategy.

Did you speak to your agents to find out more about what could be a reason that the unit is still not sold?

It is not about advertisements or network sometimes that a property cannot be sold.

I met an owner who priced the property more than $300k above last transacted as well as over existing competitors in the same development, on top of similar units in other nearby projects.

The market basically works on supply and demand, therefore positioning of a unit is important in the sale and rental of any properties in Singapore. Speak to your agents first before deciding what could be a suitable option moving forward.

Wishing you all the best in the sale.

1. If your unit has been on the market for a long time without success, it’s often due to ineffective pricing or weak marketing efforts.
2. Engaging multiple agents may lead to diluted commitment, as no single agent feels fully responsible to push the sale.
3. The two most common barriers are overpricing and lack of strategic promotion—both can turn away potential buyers.
4. Arrange a frank conversation with your current agents to assess listing strategy, buyer feedback, and next steps.
5. Consider working exclusively with one committed agent who can tailor a clear plan to position your property competitively.

Yes, it’s definitely possible to achieve results through private networks, but success depends heavily on the quality of agents and their connections. Agents with strong internal databases, serious co-broke relationships, and active investor clients can drive real traction — even without relying on public listings. That said, this approach works best when the property has unique appeal or is priced attractively.

However, engaging multiple agents without exclusivity often leads to diluted effort. No single agent feels fully responsible, and overexposure through repeated listings can hurt your unit’s perceived value. A more strategic move might be to appoint one committed agent with clear accountability, while allowing them to quietly collaborate with trusted co-broke partners behind the scenes.
