Poll: Do you think this is probably the reason?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Work changes, divorces and other life events are probably behind many of Waikato’s loss-making house sales, a realtor says.

Recent figures revealed more than 10% properties resold in Hamilton and Waikato District went for less than what the sellers had paid.

Do you think this is probably the reason? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
