Max John - Harcourts Holmwood Real estate is personal, and choosing the right agent matters. Anyone can list a property.

Not everyone brings strategy, energy, and the kind of support that actually changes outcomes.

Turns out I had a bit to say about this one… 😅
The full, unedited version of this video is **13 minutes long**. Yes. THIRTEEN. You’re welcome for the edit. 😂

But when it comes to real estate, there’s often more happening behind the scenes than you realise — and sometimes the details are worth talking about.

Here’s the considerably shorter version. 👆

Have you ever searched yourself in AI?

Because your future clients might be doing exactly that.

The way people research businesses, properties and real estate agents is changing. It’s no longer just Google, Facebook or Instagram — AI is quickly becoming another place people go for answers and recommendations.

That means your digital footprint matters more than ever.

For me, modern real estate marketing isn’t about doing what worked five years ago. It’s about understanding where people’s attention is going next — and making sure my properties, my vendors and my business are there.

Go on… search yourself. You might be surprised by what comes up.

I had the opportunity to spend the day learning from Shane Cortese and getting a proper deep dive into the world of real estate auctions.

We talked about why Shane loves the auction process, what makes a great auctioneer, what an auctioneer needs from the agent, and all the work that goes on behind the scenes to create the best possible environment on auction day.

There’s a lot more to a successful auction than standing up, calling bids and bringing down the hammer.

For me, days like this are about continuing to learn, sharpening my skills and better understanding every part of the process so I can give my vendors the best possible advice when it comes time to choose a method of sale.

A fantastic day, and plenty of knowledge to take away from it.

When your partner casually reveals she’s HANDCRAFTED a poster for your latest marketing idea… 😂

Safe to say, my reaction says it all.

I’m always talking about doing things differently when it comes to real estate marketing — but apparently that now extends to arts and crafts at home too.

Handcrafted. Personal. Slightly unhinged.
Pretty on brand, really.

Massive credit to my incredibly patient and creative partner for bringing another one of my ideas to life. ❤️

Bold. Different. Personal.

I always love sharing information and advice across everything I do. I hope you all like this tip and test it out for yourselves.

When your real estate agent decides the marketing needs a little more… arts and crafts. ✂️😂

Yes, I’m literally making my own advertising.

A bit dumb? Maybe.
Different? Definitely.
Memorable? That’s the whole point.

Bold. Different. Personal.

Thinking of selling? Let’s make your property impossible to ignore.

🏠 What’s actually happening with Christchurch property listings right now?

I took a look at the latest Trade Me numbers, and once you start filtering properties by what buyers actually want — location, price, section size, freehold title, bedrooms and bathrooms — the number of genuine options gets small pretty quickly.

That’s the important part.

There might be plenty of properties advertised across Canterbury, but if you’re a first-home buyer with a specific wish list and budget, your real competition isn’t looking at every listing. They’re looking at the same handful of suitable homes you are.

And when a good one comes up? Being organised matters.

Know your budget. Know your non-negotiables. Have your finance ready. And if you need someone to help you make sense of what’s actually available in the Christchurch market, give me a call.

Bold. Different. Personal.
