Buyers or Sellers Market?

Ali Hellesoe - Ray White Real Estate

Over the weekend I was asked whether it's a 'Buyers or Sellers market'.

Sellers - why?

▫️ Lowest interest rates - ever.
▫️ Lowest numbers in stock we've seen in a while.
▫️ Double the level of enquiry on listings.
▫️ New buyers entering the market daily.
