Sell or wait? Here’s why Michael Cox says now is a good time to go to market

This sponsored post is brought to you by Raine and Horne Murraylands.

There’s not much on the market at the moment, Michael Cox says, which makes it a great time to sell.

Caution is in the air among sellers in the Murraylands as the summer rush on real estate begins to slow.

Our region, and country South Australia generally, remains the hottest in the nation as far as prices go – our house values have grown 10.9 per cent over the past 12 months.

Yet some home owners are still unsure about whether to go to market or hold off for a while.

Senior property consultant Michael Cox advises most prospective sellers to pull the trigger sooner than later, for one simple reason.

Competition is limited.

“We’re getting a lot of enquiries still, and days on the market are minimal,” he says.

“As a vendor, why go against other competing properties when you can go at a time where there’s not a lot available?

“There is demand, and supply is really thin.”

With hundreds of new homes waiting to be built at Hindmarsh Estate, Newbridge and other Murray Bridge developments over the next year or two, the current market conditions are not likely to last forever – another good reason to seek advice about going ahead with a sale now.
