Is Now a Good Time to Buy? Insights from a 20-Year Perth Expert

Описание: In this episode of That Backyard Property Pod, we sit down with Rob Walker, Director of Perth Property Partners, to dive deep into the current state of the Perth real estate market.

With nearly two decades of experience as both a buyer’s agent and a selling agent, Rob provides a unique perspective on how today’s "skinny" market compares to the massive boom of 2005.

We discuss the critical importance of "time in the market" over "timing the market," the financial traps of trading up too quickly, and the staggering reality of Perth's current stock levels.

General advice only and not personal advice. CRN 485467
