Your place in the market. 2015 Q4 Marketplace Report I Alex Rutherford
Hello. Welcome to my latest report on house sales in Hamilton, Ascot and Clayfield and for apartment sales in Spring Hill, Brisbane City, West End and Newstead. Thanks to a lengthy tenure in real estate experience it comes as no surprise to me that the market is on the move again. With a continually shifting base of buyer and seller sentiment, the influence of external factors like interest rate and lending practice changes, navigating the sale or purchase of your home is one that requires skill, knowledge, understanding and care. Which is where I step in. To discuss how this market can work for you, call me today.
200 properties sold across three suburbs
The current market. As we launch into 2016 there is a lot of talk about how the property market place is going to change, how it is going to perform during the course of the next twelve months. While many will look at the past results as an indication of the future one of the truest and best indicators of how the property market is actually shaping up will be overlooked. That indicator, that barometer for change, is buyer activity. A measure of how many buyers are enquiring on and inspecting property. How many buyers are making offers, bidding at auction and very tellingly how many buyers are going to contract. Right now, activity is stronger than expected and some agents coming back from their holidays have been caught off-guard. The fact that inspection numbers, bidder numbers and the number of offers being made are up imbues a sense of confidence in the market and in general there is a sentiment of optimism. All of which, should this positive outlook remain, suggests that 2016 could be a big year for our local property market.
Sefton Avenue Craig and I couldn’t have been more satisfied or impressed with Alex and her team during the purchase of our new home. They displayed the highest level of skill, professionalism and integrity during the entire period, from our initial inspection to settlement. Liz & Craig, Clayfield
Creswick Street Every step of the way Alex and her team made selling my property easy. She made recommendations I could trust, and got me the best result I could have ever asked for. I would highly recommend Alex, and next time I am buying or selling, she will be my first call! Simone, Clayfield

Grenier Street I was very apprehensive about buying another home from my not so great experience the first time around, however Alex has changed my view on how easy it is to purchase real estate if you have a good agent! From the start to finish, Alex made purchasing my home feel ridiculously easy and was always on hand and quick to answer any questions I had and made the whole process feel very smooth, she is extremely efficient and personable.
