5 Tips on what to do if you haven’t sold before Xmas

1. Review your price. In the vast majority of times my experience is that an overly-ambitious price tag is the key reason most properties don’t sell within 28 days.

2. Refresh your marketing & re-launch in January. Consider a fresh start in the New Year. Old & new buyers are back by the second week of January with new energy & enthusiasm to buy - be first off the blocks with your rejuvenated listing.

3. Make sure your property is up at the top of the internet listings for your area - if not, pay to raise its position. Only around 30% of buyers look beyond the first page of online search results!

4. Get a fresh set of eyes to review your presentation. Consider getting someone who isn’t involved with the sale to guide you on your presentation & consider some minor adjustments if they think anything is getting in the way. This could include styling, furnishing, de-cluttering, minor decoration, landscaping etc.

5. Consider engaging a feng shui master to see if there is anything that needs attending to. This process can be effective for all buyers and with Chinese buyers becoming a bigger part of the buyer pool you want to ensure your property is not turning any away.

As predicted by Morgan Stanley, a leading financial service provider, the buy-to-rent market is expected to take a large step forward over the next several years. Affordable home prices will continue to allow investors to acquire discounted properties and rent them out to tenants who cannot afford to own. Increased investor activity is therefore expected to provide a boost to this particular industry. Resting comfortably at approximately $17 billion dollars a year, the buy-to-rent industry has only begun to realize its potential. Experts at Morgan Stanley believe increased investor activity will expand the industry to its actual potential within a few years. Those who familiarize themselves with this particular market may reap significant rewards and stay ahead of the curve for a long time. While prices are on the rise, homes are still well below their peaks in 2007. Values can be found across the entire country, as short sales and foreclosures are still relatively prominent. Inve

Market Trend: The List Price Slowdown-#Rents Up 3.0%

According to Trulia Price Monitor and the Trulia Rent Monitor are the earliest leading indicators of how asking prices and rents are trending nationally and locally. They adjust for the changing mix of listed homes and therefore show what’s really happening to asking prices and rents. Because asking prices lead sales prices by approximately two or more months, the Monitors reveal trends before other price indexes do. With that, here’s the scoop on where prices and rents are headed. Asking home prices increased 2.0% month-over-month in September. However, the quarter-over-quarter increase – which is less jumpy – was 3.0% in September, the smallest gain since February. Although monthly price changes remain volatile, the overall trend shows that price gains are slowing down, despite the fact asking prices were up 11.5% year-over-year – the largest increase since the housing crash. How can there be a slowdown if year-over-year prices are hitting new highs? Because the year-over-year cha
