Hi [name] and welcome to my Weekly Insight for Monday 2nd July 2012

"THE MARKET MOVES AND MOVES! "

Quote for the week

 " Gratitude is riches. Complaint is poverty."

Christian Science Hymnal  

In recent days I have been involved in many auctions, eight of which were brought forward and many others where competitive bidding saw fantastic results.

Vendors were delighted with their sale price and buyers were ecstatic they had secured a property.

Some buyers are so frustrated at having missed out several times they simply give in and compete to WIN. Others are tearful as they miss out yet again.

The key is to keep our focus on our responsibility to obtain the best sale price we can for our sellers and still maintain a transparent fairness to the buyers. I see some realtors struggling to cope with the emotions of the buyers they have worked closely with. It is hard sometimes but our duty of care to our sellers is paramount.

Likewise we must also remain clear and precise on market expectations with our sellers.

News of some sales at crazy levels again travel fast and every seller treats their home as the next prospect for such a price.

Sometimes this does happen, but your client must still be prepared for market reality.Crazy sale prices are not the norm! They are bonuses that apply property by property.

However, if the current shortage of listings was to continue for another three months, then it may apply to all sales. That is if interest rates stay low and first home buyers grab anything under $500 000. Right now we must still keep our feet on the ground and treat each sale case by case.

Have a wonderful week  - be generous with your smiles and time.
