3430 Columbia Rd. Lebanon, OH
For a 5.61-acre property along Columbia Road near Turtle Creek, the Trustee needed a single trusted firm capable of managing the entire process—from preparing the property for sale to executing a successful closing—without the delays and uncertainty of a traditional real estate listing.
5.61-Acre Luxury Property – Lebanon, Ohio
The estate featured an expansive brick ranch home surrounded by impressive outdoor amenities, including a stately pool, decorative ponds, and extensive hardscaping throughout the property. While visually striking and full of potential, the property also required significant updates and rehabilitation to reach its next chapter.
To simplify the process and unlock the property’s true market value, the Trustee engaged Worley Auctioneers to manage the entire project from start to finish.
Situation
An out-of-state family had been entrusted with selling the 5.61-acre estate property in Lebanon, Ohio. Because of distance and time constraints, the Trustee needed a reliable partner who could oversee every step of the process locally.
The property’s size and condition presented both opportunity and challenge. While the grounds offered exceptional features for entertaining and recreation, the home required updates and cleanout before it could be properly marketed to buyers.
Rather than navigating months of preparation and uncertainty through a traditional listing, the Trustee sought a faster and more certain solution.
Solution
Worley Auctioneers delivered full-service, concierge-level real estate auction services, managing the project from preparation through closing.
Our team coordinated junk removal, property cleanout, and site preparation, ensuring the home and grounds were ready for showings. Once prepared, Worley launched a targeted online real estate auction campaign designed to maximize exposure and create buyer urgency.
Worley’s in-house marketing team implemented a comprehensive campaign that included:
- Prominent roadside signage along Columbia Road
- Professional video tours and aerial drone photography
- Targeted online advertising to agents, investors, and end-users
The campaign quickly generated significant attention. Dozens of private showings were scheduled, and two open houses drew hundreds of prospective buyers eager to explore the property’s potential—particularly the expansive brick ranch and outdoor entertaining spaces along scenic Turtle Creek.
Outcome
Following consultation between the auctioneer, the Trustee, attorneys, and financial advisor, the estate accepted a non-contingent offer.
Sold: $797,500
The property closed in less than 30 days, delivering a fast and efficient resolution for the Trustee and eliminating the ongoing responsibilities of managing the estate property from afar.
