18 Thornton Road, Cambridge. Designed and built by Mr Potts, a renowned Cambridge builder, in 1911 for his own family. Lovingly restored and upgraded, retaining the grace of the era in which it was created. I invite you to come and see this wonderful property which is currently up for sale. Be prepared to be wowed.

I heard an anecdote this morning that probably exemplifies the market at the moment. I was catching up with a very old friend and his wife whom I knew from Kaitaia. He and I flatted and played rugby together when I was on transfer there for the bank I was working for at the time.
The conversation turned, as it always does, to kids and grandchildren. He said that he was recently talking to his sharemilking son who was wanting to get a house. Rolling his eyes, he said this was one of a number of conversations he’d had with the son, with a repeat of all the logical reasons why they should buy now – prices were slightly lower, they were living rent free and had money, and they could rent the place until they came off the farm. The response was that they were in no hurry and would just keep looking until they found the perfect house.
This seems to sum up the attitude of buyers overall at the moment. There are a lot of buyers out there that are either in a position to buy straight away or have a house to sell. With the former, they can’t seem to make a decision in some cases and with the latter, no one wants to start the ball rolling by putting in an offer subject to sale or put their house on the market until they find, again, the perfect property. This last aspect is quite possibly tying up the market more as it is reducing the stock on the market as the existing stock sells or is withdrawn for the winter.

However, there is always someone wanting something so if you are thinking of selling, the buyers I have are in a position to buy. These are looking across a variety of property types from 3-4 bedroom residential up to $1.3m to rural blocks with or without houses.

Let me know if you are considering a change. Buying and selling on the same market is always a smart move.

This Tuesday just gone, I traveled to Auckland with the rest of the More RE team to the national real estate conference. Amongst the many gems cast before us there was the following from Wendy Alexander, former CEO of Barfoot and Thompson. It is about habits:

Stop
Start
Keep

Stop the habits that are negatively impacting your life.

Start habits that are going to to add positively to your life.

Keep habits that are already adding to your life.

Pretty simple but very impactful. Have a crack and see what it does for your life. I have already stopped one thing that was supposed to be an improvement but in reality was becoming a burden to do and not actually adding practical value to my life.

Talking of bad habits, I love this version by Billy Fields from '81

Have a great weekend everyone.

This post is for Cambridge residents or those that own property in Cambridge.

Even with the large number of properties on the market here, I am still struggling to fill buyer needs.

In particular, I am looking for the following:

Sarah and family - looking for up to $1m for a 3/4 bedroom, 2 bathroom home on 750m2 plus section, preferably in Cambridge/East

Kurtis and family - looking for 3 bedroom home up to $700k

Abby and family - looking up to $1.2m for a 3/4 bedroom, 2 bathroom home

Josh and family- looking for first home up to $1m for a 3/4 bedroom, 2 bathroom home

Liam and family - looking for modern 4 bedroom home

Jean and family - looking for 3 bedroom home up to $900k

plus a number of others.

If you are thinking of selling, then do contact me to discuss your circumstances. It is actually a good time to sell and buy despite what some say about winter. There are definitely buyers out there wanting to get settled her, and selling on this market means you will be buying on this market - a win/win.

My contact details are 0272 763 369 or [email protected]
