Are property prices close to levelling out?
You may have read that property prices may have reached a bottom. This week I sold a property in the East Coast Bays after only 15 days on the market. The property was sold by Tender.
The Tender date was brought forward following an acceptable offer. There were then 11 offers on Tender Day.
With 23 registered buyers.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
