Merging perspective and prowess, Lynn Tiang sees opportunity everywhere, having shaped her career in real estate with a business-driven spirit, a curious and creative mind, and a keen eye for recognising value.
Lynn is a serial entrepreneur and marketing maestro who has built multiple award-winning businesses with her team across varying industries in Singapore and internationally. But it was in building her own home that she first realised the challenges that landed home buyers face — particularly, a lack of expert consultation and guidance in navigating the oftentimes stressful journey from land purchase till move-in day. Noticing a gap in the market, she decided to venture into the real estate industry, with a strong focus on new landed property.
Within her first year of joining Singapore Realtors Inc (SRI), Lynn was recognised as a Millionaire Producer and has since been ranked a Top 3 Producer in the landed segment multiple times. Her rapid rise to success with the company she founded, PropertyGiant, has captured the attention of many, both in and outside of the property industry.
Lynn's vision for her real estate endeavours is clear – it's not just about selling property; it is about nurturing enduring partnerships, providing invaluable consultation, and creating a real estate experience that transcends the ordinary.
Shifting perspective and redefining value
Lynn’s approach is grounded in her sincere belief that every product has its own unique selling points that are marketable when presented to the right buyer. An example of this was with a parcel of land in Punggol that was deemed too challenging to sell and brushed aside as “useless” land.
Working with the motto, “Everything has value. It is about positioning”, her team created a viral video promoting the piece of land on social media, turning its perceived shortcomings into unique selling points, and managed to sell it within two weeks.
“It could not be used for home-building and had many restrictions, such as not being able to connect utilities, sewage disposal or clean water supply,” Lynn explains with an earnest smile that lights up her face. “The video on TikTok went viral!”
Collaboration in construction
Lynn is a strong believer in teamwork and win-win relationships. With personal experience in land development, she has a deep understanding of property developers’ views and firmly believes in their vision when developing a project. Her genuinely collaborative spirit fosters relationships built on trust and a shared goal for success — attracting multiple renowned developers to partner with her.
She also guides those new to the industry.
“There is a growing trend of business owners from other sectors who wish to venture into property, aspiring to become developers themselves,” she notes. Here is where Lynn steps effectively into this niche, offering consultation services that delve into design, build quality, and strategic layout planning. Her knowledge of what business-minded individuals seek in a property is rooted in her own experiences as an entrepreneur and a busy mother of three.
One notable aspect is her focus on future-proofing properties. She doesn't merely chase aesthetics; instead, she provides insights to developers on creating layouts that anticipate and meet the evolving needs of families. Her emphasis on room spacing, layout, and the importance of critical elements like the master room showcases a nuanced understanding of buyer psychology.
“When my property branding company takes on a project with a developer, we cover all aspects of the marketing and are available 24/7 for consultation, even during the course of the build if needed,” says Lynn, emphasising how PropertyGiant’s hands-on involvement goes beyond the traditional role of agencies, offering a comprehensive turnkey service to developers that starts from land purchase to construction and eventual sales.
Lynn is constantly seeking ideal working partnerships with developers that span three to six months and beyond, offering not just agency services but an entire suite of marketing support. From 3D renderings to coloured floor plans and interior renderings, Lynn’s team ensures a comprehensive and visually appealing representation of the properties.
With this full suite of services, PropertyGiant has accumulated an impressive range of premium listings that caters to the diverse needs of landed home buyers.
Connecting landed property buyers to their dream homes
Lynn and her team know that time equals money for home buyers. By developing an acute understanding of their clients' needs, they are determined to smoothen the process of buying and building.
“I believe the crux of whatever success I have is because I’m very much aware of the evolving needs of property buyers,” says Lynn, who works closely with her team to go above and beyond the call of duty. PropertyGiant provides highly customised and detailed add-on services, which includes consultation on home constructions and facilitation of the 12-month defect liability period.
“I have had buyers who trust me completely and prefer to liaise with me about the progress of their new home instead of contacting the developer directly,” says Lynn. Her holistic approach ensures a seamless end-to-end experience for buyers, as her expertise extends to the minutiae of property design and layout.
Property rookie with a Midas touch
In just a few short years, Lynn has cemented herself as a force to be reckoned with in real estate, delicately balancing the needs of developers and home buyers to bring success and satisfaction for all involved.
Having shaped PropertyGiant with an ingenious blend of business acumen and customised marketing strategies, Lynn and her team’s foray into the real estate sector has been nothing short of groundbreaking. She has successfully sold more than 30 landed properties within a span of three years and led her team to break records and achieve the highest price psf for a landed development.
These projects not only achieved remarkable sales but also established her as the go-to consultant for developers and business owners, who find her a breath of fresh air in the highly competitive real estate industry.
While ongoing projects keep her hands busy, Lynn also spends time to guide those new to the landed property sector, involving them in marketing new projects for practical experience and shared financial success. This open approach gives them opportunity to enhance their skills while building value within the real estate industry.
Unlike a passing breeze that is felt and then gone, Lynn and her team are here to stay and make a difference.
