Why is security so important for tenants? 🏡🤔 On this episode of The WA Property Q&A Podcast, we explore how stability in housing impacts so many aspects of life: ✅ Tenants often need a fixed address to secure jobs or loans. ✅ Families with kids in school may face strict zoning rules, requiring proof of long-term residence. ✅ Both tenants and property owners value the security of knowing their living situation is stable. It’s clear—housing security is more than just a roof over your head; it’s the foundation for planning your future. Tune in for more insights into the property market and what it means for WA tenants and owners. 🎧 #WAPropertyQandAPodcast #HousingSecurity #TenantRights #PropertyMarket

Podcast news! We have a new series launching all about the housing crisis and what on earth we can do to fix it. Watch the trailer here to get a flavour of what’s in store. ⬇ I am really delighted that our Building Talks podcast brand has teamed up with the excellent duo that is Jackie Sadek and Peter Bill for a five-part series called Home Truths. Jackie and Peter are self-confessed housing and regeneration obsessives – they co-wrote the brilliant book Broken Homes and so the obvious next step was to get them on board to do some podcasting with us. Not only do they really know their stuff, they are also great fun to listen to – as are their well-chosen, high-profile guests. I don’t think Jackie and Peter would mind me saying that they have been around the block for a while so they have some strong views – and they most certainly do not agree on everything, quite the opposite. So expect some lively debate, even some good-natured bickering between them. This is all part of our election focus coverage, knowing that housing is an increasingly urgent concern that has risen up the agenda for voters. As I said, the trailer is out now and the first episode will be released on Tuesday 7th May, and you will be able to read more about all the interviews with our special guests every week on Housing Today and Building Magazine. Do tune in! #podcast #trailer #hometruths #electionfocus #ukhousing

→ #ATTNSELLERS! There has been a 31% increase in listings, so it is imperative to price your home competitively. Please, please, please listen to what I'm saying..... →If the property is #PRICEDRIGHT, it will move quickly and might even receive multiple offers which afford sellers a squeaky-clean, top-dollar offer. → #SELLERS often say: "Let's just try a <higher> list price for a few weeks." Sellers, don't do this! When your home sits, the #DaysOnMarket will work against you. → #BUYERS, look at the 'days on market' and often think: "Why is this property sitting? I bet (a) there is something wrong with it, or (b) it must be overpriced, or (c) the seller is probably desperate, let's make a low offer. → #LISTEN to your agent regarding #LISTPRICE. If a property isn't receiving offers, make #QUICK price adjustments → #TRUST your #AGENT. We work the housing #MARKET #DAILY. → #ADJUST to the market because the market #WILLNOT adjust to you.
