Launch of New Property Check Service

Mon, 11 Apr 2011

In over 30 years of analysing the property market and being actively involved in assisting people with their property decisions, I have experienced the many different market cycles and the barrage of questions from buyers, with many of those questions reoccurring and becoming a familiar challenge for those about to transact a property deal.  Perhaps you have faced similar questions yourself over the years as a buyer, a seller or a holder of property.  Questions such as:

• What should I pay for the property?  I am fearful of paying too much.
• Is this the right property for future growth?
• Are there factors such as Town Planning changes that will affect the value of this property now or in the future?
• Should I buy or sell now or later – what is the best timing?
• What special conditions should I put on the offer to protect my interests?
• Should I accept this offer or will a better one come along?
 
Are any of these questions familiar to you?  They create doubt and uncertainty for the buyer.

Perhaps one or more of these questions is on your mind today.  With so much uncertainty in today’s property market it is highly likely however one thing I have learned over the years, is whilst there is commonality in many of these questions, everyone’s situation is as individual as they are.
 
I always start the property decision making process for clients with a financial answer, as this can be measured and is often the easiest to address first.  So often client’s roll everything into the decision which is usually a combination of personal circumstances made up of both emotional and financial components.
