Focus on long term: Team Sheppard
The property market seems to be a hot topic for debate over the past month, yet it is not all doom and gloom which the media leads us to believe.
When we take Auckland and Wellington statistics out, we can get a far clearer picture of what is happening, says Marijke Sheppard of Ray White Rangiora.
“Waimakariri and Hurunui are still trending upwards, albeit on a slower basis,” she says.
“Those sellers who hold their nerve are still seeing realistic offer levels, however those who believe the market is dropping on a daily basis are leaving potential money behind for the purchasers to enjoy. We may be living in unusual times, but this is not an unusual market – it is more of a ‘normal’ market.”
Marijke adds that home ownership has never been a short term investment.
“Focus on the long term and enjoy your home. We at Ray White deal in only facts benefitting our clients with real-time accurate data that is relevant to you and your local market. “It is important to always seek professional, unbiased opinions that are backed up by factual data,” Marijke explains.
