Real Updates from Ben
Hi neighbors,
With the government now formed I have seen a significant increase of buyer inquiry in the upper end of the market and expect this to be the same across the board.
This week has been very interesting for me with new clients coming on board under buyers agencies and traditional vendor agencies.
Leading into Christmas is a great time to talk to me about your real estate goals with our registered buyers looking to secure off market property.
Unlike traditional listings where the vendor must list and go online with an agency our registered buyers are introduced to your property and then if they buy it they pay us a fee. That means the vendor doesn't pay a cent in success fees. The fee the buyer pays is negotiated at the start before any properties are shown or found for them.
It also means the business is done discreetly,no advertising, no branded vehicles , no prying eyes from the public looking at your home, just qualified buyers that are looking for specific homes.
Offers are always on written Sales & Purchase Agreements and prepared for the buyer . Negotiation on price and conditions is done the normal way.
If you have an agent come to you out of the blue with a buyer for your home that is not on the market, what do you do? Well you have a choice, jump through hoops and paperwork so the agent can show them the house and pay a success fee, or ask them to get the buyer to pay their fee, or tell them to go away.
Also do you know that if you are approached by an agent with a buyer and you list with them , the cooling of period is 5 working days from the date they give you a copy of the written listing authority unlike the usual 24 hours. Consumers are covered by the Fair Trading Act, please see attached fact sheet for more details.
Also note that if are ever unsure about the details of an agency agreement and its binding nature please seek legal advice before signing.
If you are looking for a property and cant find it or want to talk to about your home to see if it matches our buyers needs call me for a chat anytime on 06 845 9202 or 0217 738 769

POTTING MIX QUALITY
If, like me, you are an experienced and avid gardener you know how frustrating it is when those beautiful seedlings recently purchased fail to thrive. Have you ever considered it may not be your fault, you've done all the right things but it may be the new bag of potting mix you bought to plant them in . Have you ever complained to the garden centre? My recent experience showed the blatantly obvious difference between brands. The recently purchased product was nothing more than raw compost, whereas the previous product was a good mix and made the plants thrive. I was the only one to complain, there could not possibly be a problem with the product as they sell pallet loads of it........ Your comments would be appreciated.
