Here I am, embarking on my first blog. Please be patient and understanding if all is not as it should be. This blog is not full of statistics, you can find them in numerous other forms, I wish to be able to share information and opinions in a very informal way. Living in Opotiki, it's a lifestyle thing.
Given some of the predictions relating to global recession, ( I think I am over that term all ready) and doom and gloom for the ensuing year, I am very happy to be living in an area that does not suffer the same degree of volatility in the property market as that of cities. What this usually means though, any capital gain may take a little longer to achieve, however conversely, there may be a loss if a person is looking for a quick flick of a property in a slow market, therefore long term investment is the better idea.
Do not think I am blaise about the expected recession, I just choose to remind myself and others this is not a new event, history tells us otherwise, there are just different effects each time.
Living in the Eastern Bay of Plenty coastal region allows us to gather food from the sea and rivers, provides soil that produce bountiful gardens, endows us with an extremely predictable climate and an environment where the pace of life is a little slower and less expensive.
For anyone wishing to opt out of the uncertainity of the city, remember the old adage, as safe as houses, and strive and survive in 2009 in little ol' Opotiki.

ReplyDeleteThank you very much for taking the time to look and comment. Much appreciated
ReplyDeletehow long have you been selling realestate and did you go through the last ression? Im looking at property further along the coast te kaha waihau bay and further do you specialise in this area or can you put me onto someone who does?
ReplyDeleteI am one of the newest real estate salespeople in the township. I have enjoyed a little success in a short period of time and am building very good relationships with the people I am working for and with. And like people of my age and older and some a little younger, I have definitely been through a recession, 1987. Of course I am too young (lol) to have experienced the great depression and while I do not intend to make light of these things, life did go on, just in a different way.
ReplyDeleteWe do have a staff member specialising in the coastal area of your choice and she would be more than happy to be of assistance. Please refer to our website via the link. Her name is Susan Woods. Thanks for your comments.
Having just sold and settled a small investment property with the fabulous assistance of Noeline I would gladly recommend her to any prospective buyer or seller. We had a rather bumpy ride from day one with the purchaser but Noeline was wonderful and sooo helpful throughout. The fact that we (the sellers) lives in Australia made it all just that much more difficult. Go Noeline. Great work.
