The magic of our yellow hammer... YOUR 2023 COMPETITION CREATORS This year, we were pleased to see our RWTE Online Auction Event’s continue to provide premium results for our clients, despite market dynamics being known to change unpredictably. When comparing Auction vs Private treaty our data shows us the average days on market for auction is comfortably sitting at 28, whilst private treaty is increasing at 51. Not only are we continuously seeing willingness from local property owners to transact under the hammer, we’re seeing more buyers prepared to bid and buy at auction than what we have seen for some time. Auction bidding is a reflection of the market in real time; it provides vendors genuine insights into the energy and pulse of the market. With three fantastic years of Online Auctions under our belt, we can't wait to see what the new year brings for these successful events!

Leading group, Local team "Stephen was the polar opposite to the bad agent I’d just experienced while the Gold Coast Market was dropping. Stephen always reassured me whilst resolving my questions or concerns, he was a lot more attentive to my buyers with a friendly warm greeting. If you have an agent that isn’t performing then don’t be afraid to switch agents. It might cost a little to change over but waiting around and watching the market drop will cost you a lot more.." - Seller in Tallebudgera
