Manager's Comments 09-05-16

I have just been in Northern Queensland for a week. A completely different climate and a completely different real estate market. Lots of property available, but a somewhat depressed economic climate, lots of sellers, few buyers. I remember this happening in New Plymouth, not so long ago really. The market can change quickly. I don't know when that might happen here, but it will in time. The message I got was do what you want to do now, don't wait for that one off buyer, take market value and move ahead with plans while it's all quite easy in comparison to many other places, which normally would not be seen as slow or a bit depressed. Our buyers are offering value. No more, no less. That will change in time. Work in the now and move ahead without regrets.
