INSTANT APPRAISAL

Behind the Scenes - Series 1, Episode 6

Team Collaboration: Every Role Matters

Selling a home is never a one-person job. At the Simon Salm Team, every successful sale is the result of seamless collaboration across our entire team. From the first phone call to the final handover, each person plays a vital role in delivering a smooth, results-driven experience.

Admin: The Organised Backbone

Behind the scenes, our admin team ensures everything runs like clockwork. From handling paperwork and scheduling appointments to liaising with solicitors and keeping the process on track, their support allows our sales agents to focus on what they do best — listing and selling!

Marketing: Making Your Home Shine

Our in-house marketing coordinator brings each property to life with standout campaigns that showcase its best features. They provide styling advice to help your home present beautifully, and coordinate everything from photography and video to online advertising and social media. The goal? Maximum exposure across every platform.

Sales Agents: Strategy & Negotiation

Our agents work closely with sellers to set the right pricing strategy and guide the preparation process. They grow seller and buyer relationships — following up after open homes, answering questions, and supporting clients through every step. The team also leads negotiations and oversees the contract process through to settlement, with every member contributing to ensure everything stays on track. Additional support staff assist at open homes and help maintain consistent buyer engagement throughout the campaign.

Working Together for You

Every role — no matter how big or small — contributes to a successful outcome. When you work with the Simon Salm Team, you're not just hiring an agent; you’re gaining the support of an entire team of dedicated professionals who genuinely care about your result.
