Successful Sale of Former School Highlights Hilco's Expertise

Successful Sale of a Former Educational Facility

Hilco Real Estate Sales (HRE) is excited to announce the successful sale of the former Holy Trinity Episcopal School, located at 11810 Lockwood Rd. in the northeast area of Houston. This swift sale process exemplifies HRE's capability to tackle challenges effectively while generating substantial interest from potential buyers.

Navigating Challenges in Real Estate Transactions

One significant challenge faced during this sale was the need to resume the water and wastewater services at the property. HRE took the initiative to gather comprehensive information regarding the related costs, timeline, and essential contacts necessary to reactivate these services. This proactive approach helped inform prospective buyers, simplifying their decision-making processes.

Clarifying Shared Agreements

HRE ensured full transparency about the shared Municipal Utility District (MUD) agreement associated with the property. Collaborating with legal experts, HRE effectively clarified this agreement to prospective buyers, addressing responsibilities, costs, and required documentation. This clear communication alleviated concerns and facilitated a smoother transaction process.

Marketing Strategy Highlights Property Versatility

HRE's marketing strategy focused on the diverse potential uses of the former school building. The property attracted buyers interested in various reuses, from community centers and residential developments to specialized facilities like medical centers or tech hubs. The possibility of the building continuing to serve as an educational facility also remained an appealing option for buyers.

Robust Marketing Campaign Implementation

To expedite the sale process, HRE launched an extensive marketing campaign, utilizing digital platforms and real estate websites, while also engaging in local, regional, and national advertising efforts. HRE organized three official on-site inspections, allowing potential buyers to tour the property, evaluate competition, and interact directly with HRE representatives. These interactions played a key role in fostering excitement and driving competitive offers, culminating in the successful sale to the Sheldon Independent School District.
