| Strengths/Specialities: Over 8 years experience specialising in residential house sales in Christchurch. | |
| Background: Confidence is returning to the market in Christchurch and we are seeing very good sales results going through at strong pricing levels. There are many buyers frustrated at not being able to find a home to buy due to a lack of supply. The North to Western sides of the city are finding business almost goes on as usual, and other suburbs are increasing the levels of activity depending on the level of damage to the property concerned. For those with minor damage to their homes, it is well worth going to the market as all EQC claims can be re-assigned without necessarily diminishing value on the home. House Insurance is also being passed on to new owners. | |
