2019 has been such a fantastic year in real estate!

“Melbourne’s Property Market” will always be a hot topic for news and current affairs, as Australians all over monitor the fluctuation of conditions and witness growth by development.

The market has remained good throughout the year as we witnessed a minor plateau in 2018. With a steady and healthy looking market we learned that with transparency and communication with real estate agents, the reported “slowing down” was just another motivational element to get results!

If you’re wondering if now is a good time to buy or sell – it is always beneficial to get a regular market update on your own property to see where it sits in the market.

You’re always going to receive market updates from your regular platforms, but since you’re here we’ve put a list of 5 things you should do over the next few months:

1. START THAT CONVERSATION

Not everything in the market is reported in articles or blog posts. Often what you read online doesn’t always align with your local market or the area you wish to buy or invest in. The best way to get an understanding is to start a conversation. Walker Real Estate International have become local for that very reason.

We’ve monitored growth areas and developing suburbs, and we’re ready to service you locally from Ballarat, Glenroy and Narre Warren.

You can benefit a lot from a conversation with us! 

2. DO YOUR RESEARCH

Always remember. You’re not just a buying, selling or renting – you’re investing in the next big step in your life!

Take care with this step, do your own research online with the journals and articles and speak to as many people as you can. Stay informed and make the best decision for you. 

3. ASK US FOR A FREE APPRAISAL

It doesn’t matter if you’re looking to sell now, in a month’s time, in 12 months or not at all. An appraisal is important, informative and free!

It’s always important to have an idea of where your property sits in the market, to help with future investment decisions! 

4. READ OUR BLOG POSTS

Are you a first home buyer? Or perhaps you’re an owner looking to invest or sell?

If you look around your neighbourhood local agents are always putting on information evenings that invite you into our day-to-day lives! This is the perfect opportunity to ask questions or listen to others and learn alongside your local community.

Walker Real Estate International will have regular blog updates to invite you into our day-to-day operations to ensure the best possible outcome when taking your first next step! 

5. TAKE THAT FIRST STEP

You might be asking: “So, when is a good time to buy, sell, invest or rent?”

In short, it is always a good time. If you do you start that conversation, do your own research, get an appraisal and source information from us –

taking that first step will be one of the easiest choices you make! 

ALWAYS REMEMBER: The Property Market doesn’t belong to Melbourne, it belongs to you!
