    I dislike how swan calls the banks greedy and that more rate cuts are needed, yet he and that other moron Julia implement a carbon tax
    The ripples of the carbon tax will cause more problems!!!

    Hi Michael,

    Nice short answer, Get an agent to do it!!!

    Spend your time learning how to invest, working towards a goal etc,
    Like Xdrew said you might save a cent here but it might cost you a dollar some where else.

    Hi,

    I am an ex agent and i can agree with Judy in regards to price, but Judy some times agent give un realistic prices to the vendor just to get their business.  So its a case by case scenrior.

    You say that houses are selling for 300K? But are they units like yours?

    In my opion take the properties off the market for at least one month and try sell one property at a time rather then the two,
    use this as a selling point to the agent. Tell the agent that if you sell one of my houses i will then give you the oppurtunity to sell the other, make the agent work for the bussiness.

    Hi,

    Thats also a good point!!!
    I have a friend who works at Ford and he was saying up to 80% of people who work at ford are from geelong, how much of this is true i dont now.

    All i know that "yes that me be other industries" but depending on how many acutally get the boot thats a different story.
    I have a client who owns a shop in Geelong and she said that their are allot of shops closing down "etc".

    But i think for the future it will provide great returns.

    I agree with fredo, we both just commented on anOther post about near by suburbs
    I live in the west and the property market is flat, one of the main reasons is there is no shortage of land, so many new areas beingbuilt

    If ford do let go of workers or cut hours back, will the local economy be impacted by this?
    I think after July there is going to be allot of opportunity

    If you evetdrive in thr area go past the old geelong hwy
    Retra vision, miter ten, good guys and sleep city have went under

    hi,

    I recommend that you use a agent in the are to sell your home
    I recently just sold one of my ip
    Even though I’m good at selling and worked in real estate for a number years
    I still got a local agent to sell my home
    Why they have the tools
    Let the agents deal with the situations and the challenges
    Plus allot of people who sell there own home privately at the start there Pumped and then run out of steam
    My saying is this leave the hassles to them and you focus on want you want

    Hi Jackie, I used to work as a real estate agent for three years in Melbourne, but once I got married I chose to spend more time with my wife rather than vendors and buyers.  My opinion is based on my experience and to help you with honest advice.  The property market is slow, very slow in fact, what area are you selling in?  Like anything in life from every situation there can be a positive or negative effect.  Swapping agents:  Positive response: New agent may have new fresh ideas, better pricing strategy, better marketing tools “etc”Or Negative response: Same response as the other agent “all talk but no action” Rather than just jumping the gun into choosing another agent how about you ring three other agents in the area and get them to do the following: 1)      Valuation on the property: When they give you a price range ask how did they come up with this range, also ask for evidence. 2)      What marketing tools can they  offer that are different from other agents (you will find most agents use the same tools)  but there are a hand full of agents who are a bit more proactive.3)      Also ask them should you sell one home at a time or two? ( How do buyers look at this?) Also Before you even call the agents to see your home go to some of there opens and see how do they do business?Example: do they arrive at the open early / late or neverAre they good with people “Etc” But the other questions I have for you is this, do you think the house you have listed is realistically price? Because no interest = to one thing only price or the way its been advertised by the agent. PS i hate how agents don’t list the price of the home on the internet and they say contact agent for price, So i always suggest listing the home with a price!!! If you need anything let me know

    The property market is flat!!
    I just caught up with some ex real estate colleges and the figures they are writing is allot lower then what they experienced in GFC
    Rather than just changing price I things you might need to market property differently

    Open listings = Problems

    Select one agent in the area, build a realastionship, advise them that you are selling more than just one property,

    Get them to pay the marketing for you, get them to list and deal with the head aces and you focus on the bussiness.

    Hi Derek,
    Always will to help like other helped me.
    1) Split shifts – Rather then having one person for a whole day at our shop we have two people know: One person does the mornings and the other the afternoon. Why? Does not make the day seem long, they are more productive and happier to be there.
    2) Cutting cost on items we don't need: Just because one customer wanted some thing does not mean the other 9 do.
    3) Looking at different suppliers for goods: Every one wants business!!!
    4) Better trading hours. We open early close a bit later and we have gained some market share.
    5) the biggest change has been cash flow – My wife and I had some hard times business so we both went to work some where else: It cost me $18 a hour to have some one running my shop and i earn $60.00 a hour some where else.

    6) Attitude: We both used to hate our bussiness becasue it was not delvering a large income as we expected.
    But even though we were not drawing such a huge wage at least we are. There are so many bussiness not making hens meat.

    Rather then stressing about things we cant controll we know channel our energy to things we can do.
    Thats why its time for us to invest not rest
