Nick Duchatel | Cromer Specialist 0430 443 633 | nick.duchatel@belleproperty.com Belle Property Dee Why , 12 Howard Avenue, Dee Why belleproperty.com/deewhy We’re completely immersed in the new 2019 year and for some it feels as though the festive season flew by faster than it ever has. The final quarter of the year is considered the busiest time of year, especially with a calendar full of Christmas parties, work breakups and end of year celebrations. However, home buyers in Sydney haven’t been discouraged from hitting the streets to find their next home. During your own festivities, you have no doubt heard the latest chatter about the housing market. For the past several years, we witnessed housing prices soar to great heights and now we’re in the midst of an adjustment period as home prices find their fit in the market. The latest home value index reveals that Australian dwelling values fell in 2018, marking the weakest housing market conditions since 2008. If we compare the average days on market from 12 months ago, it has gone from 13 days to 47 days. But really, what does this mean for home owners looking to sell? Market fluctuations are inevitable and yes, occurrences such as these do make it trickier to sell property however generally speaking at the end of 2018, Sydney property values were back to where they were in August 2016. If you’re looking to sell your home, it’s key to point out that the agent you choose for your property journey is more important than ever in the current property climate. At Belle Property Dee Why, we’re proud to announce that despite the declines in the market, we have been busy working with a number of local buyers to help them purchase their new home ahead of 2019 and our team has achieved some truly outstanding results. Throughout 2018, Belle Property Dee Why sold 186 properties, with my team and I selling a total of 50 properties, mainly within the Cromer area. One of our more notable sales we achieved was for a beautiful home in the suburb at, 64 Washington Avenue, Cromer which attracted some fierce competition and brought in an impressive sale price of $2,600,000. Naturally, our vendors were thrilled with the result, and were all too pleased to hand over the keys to the new owners. At the end of the day, property buying and selling stops for no one - it just may take a fraction longer to sell in the current market. So, if you want to stay ahead of the game it’s time to get in contact with us. We can provide you with expert guidance on how to maximise your property’s value, now and into the future.
