Professional-to-professional

The under-appreciated
asset in your listings.

Most luxury listings carry tens of thousands of dollars of unrealized value in their landscape. Mature plantings that have aged badly, hardscape that has not been refreshed in a decade, garden compositions that worked once but no longer flatter the property. Buyers see all of it on the first walk-through and price accordingly.

Eden & Dane partners with select real estate professionals to surface that unrealized value before a property goes to market. Pre-listing consultation. Targeted landscape interventions that can be executed in days. Strategic plant placement, hardscape refresh, and the kind of composition adjustments that make a property photograph and walk dramatically better.

We also partner on the post-sale relationship. New owners of significant properties often realize within the first six months that the landscape needs to grow into their vision of the home. A referral from the agent who sold them the property positions both parties favorably.

Our realty partnerships are selective. We work with a small number of agents in each market who handle properties at the right value tier and who share our standard for the work.

Four ways we partner

Four engagements with real estate professionals.

01  Pre-listing consultation

Increase sale price before market.

A site walk before the property is listed. Identification of specific landscape interventions that will increase perceived value most efficiently. Budgeting for the work, sequenced to be complete before professional photography.

02  Post-sale design intro

Welcome packet for new owners.

After closing, you can introduce us to the new owner as part of a thoughtful post-sale relationship. A 15-minute consultation gift that often turns into substantial design work the agent gets credit for facilitating.

03  Estate-ready quick fixes

Composed in days, not seasons.

Strategic intervention designed for fast turnaround. New plantings at entry sequences, hardscape refresh, mulch and edging, screening adjustments. Work that visibly transforms a property within a week.

04  Referral partnership

Selective, professional, mutual.

Mutual referral arrangement for select agents working at the right tier. We refer landscape clients ready to sell or buy. You refer clients ready for landscape work. Both parties surface value to clients neither could alone.

Landscape is the most under-appreciated lever in luxury real estate. Sellers leave money on the table, and buyers pay for it twice - once at purchase and again when they finally do the work themselves.

Why this partnership works

Three reasons agents refer us.

i  Faster sale

Days on market reduces meaningfully.

Properties with refreshed landscape photograph better, walk better, and close faster. The investment in pre-listing landscape work typically pays back several times over in reduced carrying costs and improved sale price.

ii  Higher sale price

Documented uplift on luxury comps.

Landscape refresh on luxury properties typically returns multiples of the investment in increased sale price. We can document the uplift from completed projects and provide before-and-after material that supports listing strategy.

iii  Repeat partnership

Selective, mutually beneficial.

We work with a small number of agents in each market. The partnerships are long-term, mutually selective, and built around the trust that comes from a string of well-executed projects rather than transactional referrals.
