Hello and welcome to my April 2011 newsletter.
Well another summer is all but over and upon reflection the market has actually been quite busy. More so from a home ownership perspective, but there are signs that more investors are now starting to come back into the market.
The early movers/ smart money have been back into the market over the past 3 or 4 months and now there is evidence to suggest that property is starting to look more attractive to investors in general. This market swing has been further reinforced by a new BNZ- REINZ Market Survey and by a number of economists pointing out that interest rates, home affordability, inflation and stock levels are such that now is the time to get back into the market. Maybe we may once again see some of the capital growth we all love so much!!
