Your place in the market. 2015 Q3 Marketplace Report I Alex Rutherford
Hello. Welcome to my latest report on house sales in Hamilton, Ascot, Clayfield and for apartment sales in Spring Hill, Brisbane City, West End and Newmarket. 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.
158 houses sold across three suburbs
The property market. Recent data has continued to highlight that suburbs closest to the centre of Brisbane, especially those at the middle to upper end of the market, remain in demand and are consistently fairing well in terms of positive sale price growth and also in terms of the numbers of properties selling. Brisbane, and particularly inner-suburban Brisbane, has been one of the most stable and consistent property markets during the past five years with relatively subdued growth when compared to gains seen in Sydney and Melbourne. This consistency has proven to be a significant deciding factor for many buyers and sellers as the majority of market participants continue to trade in and out of homes as a principal place of residency. With the festive season fast approaching and summer pretty much upon us already, there remains a level of buoyancy in buyer confidence and a willingness to buy that is not being matched by the supply of property coming to market. With fewer properties on the market, now is a great time to take advantage of low competition should you be thinking about selling.
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

Parkland Boulevard Alex helped us sell our unit, she was professional, caring and we always felt as though we were in safe hands. Alex was honest and straight forward with us - something you don’t often get. Would recommend Alex to others and happily go through her again to buy or sell. Lara, Brisbane
Gregory Terrace The most important aspect of Alex’s efforts was her consistent feedback and follow up after all inspections and enquiries. She provided support and advice in the preparation of our property that proved invaluable in obtaining the sale of the property. Jo & Phil, Spring Hill
Ann Street Alex is exactly what I like in a real estate agent. Absolutely frank and honest in what can be achieved. I wish I had more houses for her to sell Shiree & Jason, Brisbane
