Welcome to our new website

After almost 3 years we thought it was time to update our website.

Our previous website has served us well but we wanted to make a few changes and add web 2.0 technology IE blogs,forums,pod-casting,video & audio.

Today’s property auction market is certainly a different one to how it was 12 months ago. It in fact has been a complete turn around. Last year record prices were being achieved with record numbers at open for inspections and registered bidders. This year, thanks to the change in economic conditions, has seen numbers at open for inspections drop, numbers of registered bidders going from 8-10 down to 1-4 and time on market know stretching out.

2 of the biggest problems in the market place are

1. Owners not adjusting their expectations to the current market
2. Agents giving owners price indication on the market 12 months ago not todays market.

Don’t get me wrong, every owner is out to get as much as they can (that is also the job of the agent) but it todays market buyers are voting with there feet and if they feel that an owner has an over inflated idea on price they are not even considering making an offer for the fear of wasting time. A number of agents are still giving over inflated prices to owners (called buying the listing in the industry) and these are the properties that are staying on the market. The properties that are selling at the moment are the ones where owners recognise the current market and have priced the property accordingly and where the owners are engaging professional agents that know how to get a deal together. There are to many agents out there that are just name and number takers and are sitting back waiting for buyers to make an offer.

This is probably enough ranting for now. Catch you next post.

Jason started his career as a country agent back in 1987. Specialising in Auctioneering, Jason travelled the East Coast of Australia. Jason’s determination to be the best that he could was proven with Jason being twice awarded Queensland Young Auctioneer of The Year and twice runner-up in the Australasian titles. In 1997, after 10 years in the bush, Jason decided to wash off the dust and the mud and move to Brisbane. In 10 years Jason has conducted in excess of 2000 house auctions and is regarded by the Real Estate Institute of Queensland as one of the top property auctioneers in the state, being a finalist(Top 3) in the REIQ Auctioneer of the Year in 2000,2001,2003,2004 & 2006. In 2005 Jason competed against auctioneers from throughout Australia to be awarded Harcourts Australia Auctioneer of The Year. When choosing an auctioneer to handle your sale it makes total sense to choose one who is acknowledged not just for their achievements within the industry, but also for their achievements on behalf of each and every client. That’s why Jason’s reputation as the man behind so many outstanding results is that will continue to grow with the support of the Award wining team at Auction Dynamics.  To change this standard text, you have to enter some information about your self in the Dashboard -> Users -> Your Profile box.
