0.37% Westpac 0.50% ANZ 0.32% NAB 0.38% St. George Datas latest statistics indicating that the house prices in the Belrose area have come back by 4.1%, we are pleased to see the above rate cuts have stimulated new buyer activity. As more and more new home hunters hit the scene, naturally the momentum of new homes for sale begins. Right now, regardless of season is proving to be a busy time for us agents. Stronger buyer enquiry on our well presented properties and an increase in the number of offers we are receiving suggests selling before spring could prove profitable for home sellers. This will put you in a strong position come Spring when you will have an abundance of homes to choose from as a cash buyer. Correct pricing is essential in the current market in order to capture the new buyer pool

as they have come equipped with comparable properties, sales history reports and a sense of confidents not seen since 2008. The emotional purchaser will always shine through and pay you top dollar, but it is essential you attract them to your home in the first place with presentation and price. Consider an updated appraisal on your own property now to assist you in making the decision to sell. I can provide you with a comprehensive report covering the most recent comparable sales and guide you on what you can do to help improve the salability of your most valuable asset. Feel free to arrange an appointment with me to discuss what your home could achieve now. COMPLIMENTARY HOME APPRAISAL

Intelligent Buyer Alerts

by

Shane Broekman

Finally a buyer database smart enough to know what the person wants in their price range!
We have searched high and low to find the latest and greatest Customer Relations Management Program there is to remain the leading agency in the Forest. The great news is, its here and we have it. Purchasers will no longer receive listings $300,000 above their budget, 100 emails per week or even new listing alerts 6 months after they have purchased. What this creates is the most up to date, current database within the Forest. The advantage for home sellers is we can sit down in your lounge room and scroll through the buyers in your price range on my iPad that meets the requirements specific to your property. Home owners can also join this system as a way to track the market and keep an eye on what is selling. Perfect for the at home Real Estate guru.

If you would like to receive these alerts yourself, you can contact me personally to set up a level of communication that suits you perfectly. You can email your name, email address and contact number to shaneb@smartmckenzie.com.au or call 0404 044 280. I will contact you to discuss what information you would like and set it up specific for you. Real Estate is a huge part of everyones live and we want to help you know everything you can about your asset.
