Buying Property
Every year properties are bought and sold for a variety of different reasons. Some owners purchase a property with the intention that it will be their family home, where they will settle for a lifetime. Others think of their home as more of a short-term investment that they will on-sell a few years down the track. Others still are investors, ranging from mum and dad investors with one rental to those with a significant portfolio. Whichever stage of property ownership you are at, Property Value can provide you with data and insight to make confident buying and selling decisions.
