Auckland home values have fallen, down nine percent on CVs released in 2021. New capital values are being released tomorrow for 630,000 properties, with inner-city suburbs taking a bigger hit. Central Auckland areas - including Mount Eden and Maungakiekie - fell about 13 percent. Auckland Council Group CFO, Ross Tucker, says a few reasons have driven the slump. "We've seen apartments fall 12 percent, converted flats fall 12 percent as well - also, we're seeing some of the areas where there's a lot of development potential have bigger than average falls."

... And The Real Estate Market Didn't Crumble Once again the Fed didn't drop interest rates And while there is a perception  that home buyers will not buy right now there is a growing number of buyers buying admittedly many are cash buyers that are largely unaffected by interest rates but there is also a signifcant amount that are making purchases despite the rates there are a number of ways to reduce the rate including a refinance down the road when people are going to move its common that they will do so  regardless of interest rates I do believe that interest rates will gradually go down over the couse of the year for the moment concerns of inflation and other uncertainty will cause the rate drops to be slow at first and increase over time today's show breaks down how and when it will happen

How do local Indianapolis Real Estate Investors compete in an increasingly competitive market? The Home Value growth in Indianapolis is 42% since 2020. The Median home price in 2020 was$170,000, but it has increased to $240,000. 2%-4% mortgage rates have risen to 8%.Many people are leaving bigger cities for more affordable living in Indiana. Large Out-of-State corporate investors are swooping in to grab up single-family homes and apartments. Competition for finding good real estate deals is increasingly hard to come by. It's like a gold rush in Indiana.But there is hope for success in Indy for wholesalers and other local investors. Partly, it does take a bit of extra work digging twice as hard as we've been used to. Some of us have gotten lazy, taking the easy deals for granted. But there are deals out there.Local investors and wholesalers have a lot of advantages compared to out-of-state buyers. Many out of state buyers have been developing bad reputations. This is where local investors with consistent track records and face to face encounters goes a long way.Out of State buyers may be able to offer more money, and sometimes that's what it comes down to. But local buyers can offer trust, as many sellers are getting burned by corporate conglomerates. And many out of state investors are coming for 6-12 months and then packing up and leaving. For those local buyers sticking around, consistency builds your credibility.It's not about making big adjustments for buyers right now. It's about make small ones. Maybe you can safely buy at a little higher ARV percentage than you used to be able. Maybe you need to attend more Meet-Ups and other events to make a few extra connections that get you that deal. Maybe you just need to have your ducks lined up better for financing to be a little bit quicker to get the deal when available, so you can close faster. Maybe it's exploring new areas that will be the next Fountain Square. Maybe doing delayed flips and continuing to rent for a few years is a successful recipe as properties appreciate.The moral of the story is, those investors who are in the Indianapolis area for the long-term are the ones who will eventually win out in the end. In the mean time, listen to Brett & Ronnie discuss some tips and tactics that could help you in your short game at this season of the real estate market.

Buyers and sellers of houses perceive the value of real estate in very different ways. In fact, I've found that clients who sell and buy at roughly the same time will frequently use completely different valuation models (not actual models, but the ones in their heads) for when they're selling versus when they're buying! So what are the key differences, and why do sellers and buyers so often tend to not be on the same page? Let's break it down!
