ISSUE 246 - Current to 2nd February 2016 tommys.co.nz The first word from

Refreshed from the Christmas holiday break, many will be wondering what the real estate mar- ket has in store for them this year. Our belief is that the end of 2015 will be a reliable indicator of what we can expect to see in the early months of 2016. In simple terms, a market that favours home sellers, a market that offers a paucity of property for sale particularly in the popular and more affordable price ranges, and a market that has no shortage of buyers armed with low cost mortgage finance and who are ready to make buying decisions.
