The media is rife with speculation about the property market. One journalist makes a statement that differs slightly from another and then yet another will report a complete contradiction. One expert makes a claim, another makes a counter claim.
All this talk may sell papers, generate hits, or build a reputation… But it does little to reassure the first home buyer, the “upgrader” or the investor.
It’s important to recognise that journalists need to write stories. They need to publish before a deadline and they need to generate interest.
As a property buyer, it’s important that you keep your eye on your goal and not the distractions.
Choose your suburb, write your list of “must-haves” versus “nice-to-haves”, talk to local agents, organise your finance, schedule your inspections. Keep your eye on the prize!
