Be careful who you listen to
Thursday 16th April
Hi
Making sense of what is happening to house prices has to be one of the most difficult things for home owners and investors to do.
Firstly there is a wealth of data, mainly from QV and the Real Estate Institute (REINZ), which you can use to interpret yourself. This is raw data on sales which you can use to draw your own views. We collect the REINZ data and provide some tools to track and compare what is happening here.
Finish reading my Blog here for more about couple of pieces of news this week that caught my attention and are helpful in understanding these two groups of information. Don't forget to post your comments and feedback.
Have a great weekend.
Warm regards
The Landlord
