Your place in the market.2015 Q4 Marketplace Report I Alex Rutherford
Welcome to my latest report on house sales in Hamilton, Ascot and Clayfield and
for apartment sales in Spring Hill, Brisbane City, West End and Newstead. Thanks to a lengthy
tenure in real estate experience it comes as no surprise to me that the market is on the move
again. With a continually shifting base of buyer and seller sentiment, the influence of external
factors like interest rate and lending practice changes, navigating the sale or purchase of your
home is one that requires skill, knowledge, understanding and care. Which is where I step in.
To discuss how this market can work for you, call me today.
Hello.
properties sold across three suburbs

As we launch into 2016 there is a lot of talk about how the property market place is going to
change, how it is going to perform during the course of the next twelve months. While many will
look at the past results as an indication of the future one of the truest and best indicators of how
the property market is actually shaping up will be overlooked.
That indicator, that barometer for change, is buyer activity. A measure of how many buyers are
enquiring on and inspecting property. How many buyers are making offers, bidding at auction
and very tellingly how many buyers are going to contract.
Right now, activity is stronger than expected and some agents coming back from their holidays
have been caught off-guard. The fact that inspection numbers, bidder numbers and the number
of offers being made are up imbues a sense of confidence in the market and in general there is
a sentiment of optimism. All of which, should this positive outlook remain, suggests that 2016
could be a big year for our local property market.
The current market.

Craig and I couldn’t have been more
satisfied or impressed with Alex and her
team during the purchase of our new
home. They displayed the highest level
of skill, professionalism and integrity
during the entire period, from our initial
inspection to settlement.

Every step of the way Alex and her
team made selling my property easy.
She made recommendations I could
trust, and got me the best result I could
have ever asked for. I would highly
recommend Alex, and next time I am
buying or selling, she will be my first call!

Grenier Street I was very apprehensive about buying another home from my not so great experience
the first time around, however Alex has changed my view on how easy it is to purchase
real estate if you have a good agent! From the start to finish, Alex made purchasing
my home feel ridiculously easy and was always on hand and quick to answer any
questions I had and made the whole process feel very smooth, she is extremely
efficient and personable. Lisa, Spring Hill

Alex was extremely professional,
friendly, efficient and helpful with every
aspect in purchasing our property. It was
a pleasure dealing with Alex. I would
recommend Alex and Place Estate
Agents to anyone.
Lea-Anne, West End
Every step of the way Alex and her team
were extremely professional, friendly,
efficient and helpful with the sale of
my property. I have no hesitation in
recommending Alex and her team to my
family and friends.

Gregory Terrace The most important aspect of Alex’s
efforts was her consistent feedback
and follow up after all inspections and
enquiries. She provided support and
advice in the preparation of our property
that proved invaluable in obtaining the
sale of the property.
