Perth’s Buying Window: More Choice, Less Competition

from Perth Property Insider Podcast Hosted by Jarrad Mahon - Investors Edge Real Estate

Could this be the best time in six years to buy property in Perth? The Perth property market has shifted. Buyers now have more choice, properties are taking longer to sell, and there’s more room to negotiate. But that doesn’t mean you should rush out and buy just because market conditions have changed. In this episode of Perth Property Insider, Jarrad is joined by buyer’s agent Justine to break down what’s really happening in the Perth property market. Along with why the current conditions could create one of the strongest buying opportunities we’ve seen in years. In this episode, we cover: ✅Why Perth is becoming a more balanced property market ✅Why buyers currently have more choice and negotiating power ✅How buying conditions compare with six to twelve months ago ✅How to negotiate property without simply making lowball offers ✅How to assess the true market value of a property ✅Why seller motivation, competition, and time on market matter ✅How subject-to-sale offers are becoming more realistic again ✅Why a softer Perth market can create opportunities for home upgraders ✅Why a better buying opportunity does NOT mean you should simply buy anything Key moments: 00:00:00 Intro 00:03:51 The buyer battle days 00:08:05 Why buyers are winning now 00:11:23 Changeover math 00:15:40 The overpaying trap 00:18:44 Your home as asset 00:23:20 Negative gearing changes 00:29:00 Should you wait longer - Our Services: ✅Get your Strategic Portfolio Plan and our help with Buying Your Next Perth Property (https://www.investorsedge.com.au/invest-in-perth-property/) ✅Get clear on your current property’s outlook and the best strategy for you?
