We are finding owners who present their property well, market it with high exposure and have a good understanding of market value are selling. If you buy and sell on the same market your buying power remains the same. Many buyers are using this market to upgrade into better suburbs, as many of these properties will be unattainable when the market bounces back properly. My advice is, if you are considering a move give me a call.

Now more than ever given the current market, it is important to select an agent with a proven track record in sales and a strategy that will attract the best buyers to your home. Through my many years of sales success, I have created a comprehensive database which enables me to effectively start matching up buyers with your home from day one and create competition for it.

Tips For Selling Your Home:

I am committed to selling your home for the best possible price. Here are some tips that I have proven to be invaluable to home sellers.

First impressions are lasting so your lawns and garden should be well presented and rubbish cleared away.

A tidy home is a welcoming home so try to keep your home tidy for buyer inspections even if it means hiring a cleaner for 6 weeks before the weekend open homes. De cluttering will allow buyers to place their own furniture in your home and form an emotional attachment to it.

Repairs can make a difference so make sure all minor repairs are done as it is the little things that buyers remember that may affect your sale.

Let plenty of light into your home, nothing improves atmosphere more than brightness.

Make your home warm and inviting on cold days warmth makes the buyers more comfortable and at ease.

With uncertainty about taxation changes now over, normal New Zealand property market trends are likely to return. This is the opinion of head of real estate   for Harcourt’s Australasia Bryan Thomson. “While the Government did an excellent job foreshadowing its intentions, preparing everyone for change, many have stalled their property decisions until they knew for sure what was in store. Consequently the volume of property sales in most locations has been reduced as people have waited for confirmation of the Governments new tax regime. Now people have the facts, they should feel more comfortable about making decisions concerning their home. It is believed that the changes outlined in the budget will impact those who have been strategically using property investment to minimise their tax, however many property homeowners are not property investors.” In addition to this, Mr Thomson also added, that by introducing personal tax rate cuts, buyers now had more money and choices and there was no reason why this should negatively impact on housing prices in the near future.

There is still a lot of buyer activity in the marketplace especially with the threat of interest rate rises in the next few weeks, but good quality well presented homes are selling well in reasonable time frames. With more homes on the market, sellers need to be smarter with how they are promoting their homes compared to their competition. I am finding that sellers need to get recent sales data and details of their current competition to ensure they have realistic price expectations. As buyers now have more homes to choose from, they will quickly overlook properties they perceive to be overpriced.

Now more than ever given the current market, it is important to select an agent with a proven track record in sales and a strategy that will attract the best buyers to your home.

Did you know?

Based on data from the last 30, New Zealand houses are on average owned for 7.2 years before being sold according to Quotable Value. Analysis of just last years house sales found the average for those properties was just 5.9 years.

• In terms of average value, between March 2009 and March 2010 the North Shore had six of the country’s highest performing suburbs: Sunnynnok, Chatswood, Forrest Hill, Totara vale, Glenfield and Hillcrest according to QV’s E-valuer data.
• Australia is tightening the rules on foreign investment in real estste to ensure pressure isn’t placed on housing availability and affordability for local residents. New Zealand’s Green Party is calling for the same to be done here.

Through my many years of sales success, I have created a comprehensive database which enables me to effectively start matching up buyers with your home from day one and create competition for it.

In the last few months there was a significant increase in the volume of new properties for sale on the market. With more homes on the market, sellers need to be smarter with how they are promoting their homes compared to their competition. According to Harcourts CEO Bryan Thomson, “sellers need to get recent sales data and details of their current competition to ensure they have realistic price expectations. As buyers now have more homes to choose from, they will quickly overlook properties they perceive to be overpriced.”

There is still a lot of buyer activity in the marketplace but good quality well presented homes are selling well in reasonable time frames.

I have sold a large volume of homes over the last few months and what I have available can be viewed via the internet on my website:  www.helenshaw.co.nz . I desperately require new properties to sell. Being actively involved in the market, I am in regular contact with qualified buyers on a daily basis.

As a company we have many new properties arriving every day   www.harcourts.co.nz so be sure to check any of these properties out and let me know if you or anyone you know who may be interested in them. I have also started to offer buyers a free link to all of the new properties listed with Harcourts once a week in the areas of their choice on the North Shore. Let me know if you or someone you know may want to be added to this. I am finding that this is giving my buyers a head start on the competition as many buyers are often looking for the same type of home.

What Is This Property Worth?

This is one of the most common questions I get asked from buyers and sellers. Not surprisingly, people looking to sell are always keen to establish what price they are likely to get for their home. Buyers too want to get a price indication on properties they are interested in. At the end of the day, a property’s true value comes down to what potential buyers are willing to pay and what the sellers are willing to accept.

Don’t forget that however much you love your home, whatever you have spent on it and whatever you need to get out of it to move on to your next property, these factors have little influence on actual value. The value is determined by a buyer’s perception and how much they are prepared to pay for your property.

Remember that the quality of the agent you select and the market brand behind them can also have a direct impact on the sale price of your home!

Your agent should be focused on attracting more than one buyer to your home and provide you with a strategy that is going to fit into the timeframes that you are comfortable with.

As an experienced selling agent, my job is to be accessible to my clients and prospective buyers at all times and to maximise your sales opportunities whether it be by phone or internet enquiry.

Through my many years of sales success, I have created a comprehensive database which enables me to effectively start matching up buyers with your home from day one and create competition for it.

If you are considering a move this year or buying an investment property I would like touch base with you to see if I can be of assistance.

Despite varied trends reported in the media, recent figures released by the Real Estate Institute of New Zealand  (REINZ) reveal the median residential house price rose in 11 out of 12 districts in December 2009 compared to the same period the previous year. Furthermore,  QV has reported that New Zealand house values rose 2.8% over 2009 and are now only 4.9% below the peak of  the market  in late 2007.

We are finding that there is still a lot of buyer activity in the marketplace. Good quality well presented homes are selling well with plenty of competition between buyers. Now more than ever it is important to select the right strategy that will attract the best buyers to your home if you are considering a move. I am happy to discuss your options anytime that is convenient, so you can make some informed real estate decisions when the timing is right for you.

What Is This Property Worth?

This is one of the most common questions I get asked from buyers and sellers. Not surprisingly, people looking to sell are always keen to establish what price they are likely to get for their home. Buyers too want to get a price indication on properties they are interested in.

While at the end of the day, a property’s true value comes down to what potential buyers are willing to pay and what the sellers are willing to accept, there are some general rules:

• Whether the property market is steady or flat, the information from the current marketplace will always be the best guide for price.
• A real estate agent can gather all of the important marketplace information such as what similar properties in the area have sold for (ie a comparative market analysis)
• Well-presented, well-marketed homes that are priced competitively will always sell better than an unrealistically priced home.

Sellers should be careful not to overprice their property because:

• Price is typically the first filter through which a property is viewed and if your home is over-priced it will not compare favourably with other homes in the same bracket, thus reducing interest in it
• A high price sends a message that you do not have realistic expectations, so buyers may not want to take the time to start negotiating with you.

Don’t forget that however much you love your home, whatever you have spent on it and whatever you need to get out of it to move on to your next property, these factors have little influence on actual value. The value is determined by a buyer’s perception and how much they are prepared to pay for your property.

Also, once your property is on the market, it’s important to keep an open mind and listen to feedback from potential buyers that is passed on to you by your agent as it will inform you about any features or issues that may be preventing a sale, including those you can address such as pricing.

Remember that the quality of the agent you select and the market brand behind them can also have a direct impact on the sale price of your home!

Your agent should be focused on attracting more than one buyer to your home and provide you with a strategy that is going to fit into the timeframes that you are comfortable with. As an experienced agent, my job is to be accessible to my clients and prospective buyers at all times and to maximise your sales opportunities whether it be by phone or internet enquiry.

Glenda Whitehead of QV Valuations said “market activity in January appears to have been patchy. Overall, activity was lower than expected, although our valuer’s are seeing an increase in activity in some sectors of the market and a decrease in others.  “The majority of the market activity, particularly in the main centres, is being driven more by existing homeowners and first home buyers rather than investors. Those currently entering the market appear to be taking a cautious approach to their decisions, and are doing their research thoroughly. Some of the frantic market activity of 2009, when there were multiple buyers competing for a property, appears to have eased, at least for the time being” said Whitehead.

“It is still too early in the year to conclude the likely pace of the market in the coming months. There is increasing debate around the likely impact of the options put forward by the tax working group, but movements in property market are driven by a combination of factors, and while any tax changes implemented will impact, that change will be alongside other market factors such as interest rates, employment security, and bank lending policies prevalent at the time any of those tax changes come into effect” said Whitehead.

Values in most of the main centres have continued to increase in recent months and are now all above the same time last year. Values in the Auckland Region are now 7.3 percent up, the Wellington Area is 5.7 percent up, and Christchurch 6.3 percent up.

There is still a shortage of good quality homes in the marketplace. If you are thinking of making a move or trying to decide on the right time to sell I am happy to discuss your options so you can make some informed real estate decisions.

I have some great properties I am marketing which can be viewed via the internet on my website:  www.helenshaw.co.nz .

Let me know if you or someone you know may want to be added to this.. I am finding that this is giving my buyers a head start on the competition.

Based on interest rates still holding and good buyer interest still in the marketplace, there should be no reason to see a downturn in sales prices or volumes of sales over the next few months. According to Quotable Value reported in the NZ Herald 11^th January, “last year has shown an unexpected turnabout in house values. Driven by the main centres, nationwide values rose 5.1% between the market bottom in April and the end of the year. Nationwide house values ended 2009 just 4.9% below the late 2007 peak.” It is considered by Glenda Whitehead from Quotable Value “that the property market was strongly influenced by consumer confidence, and as consumer confidence began to grow in 2009, so did the values in the main centres.”

There is still a shortage of good quality homes and as a result of great marketing strategies before Christmas I am now looking for more homes to sell if you know of someone looking at making a move this year. If you are thinking of making a move or trying to decide on the right time to sell I am happy to discuss your options so you can make some informed decisions. Even over the Christmas period we have seen homes still selling. Obviously every home is different and there are different strategies you can use to achieve the best price for your home that I can discuss with you.

Recent sales figures released by the Real Estate Institute should home owners confidence that if they need to move, the worst is over and the values are under upward pressure. August 2009 sales figures indicate that the time to sell has again reduced nationally as stock levels remain low and buyers are starting to compete for homes available.
