Buying or selling in a LOCKED DOWN LGA? Here’s the scoop.

Moving home is a huge personal milestone at any given time – even more momentous in a lockdown.

Naturally, Covid restrictions can cast some doubt over the process. But while many of our buyers and sellers start their journey with stress… we can say with confidence, all of them end it with success.

All the usual concerns about local market conditions, not getting the right price or having people walk through your home, tend to be amplified by thoughts about restrictions impacting sales prices, contact transmission at private inspections or not being able to inspect a property from your LGA.Ā 

We’ve heard it all – but we’re here to reassure you it’s simplyĀ not the case! The reality is, home owners and property seekers are buying and selling very seamlessly in the current conditions, and we’re continuing to see this in our sales right now.

THE FACTS

Here’s what you need to know: the Public Health Order wasĀ recently amendedĀ to include inspecting properties for the purpose of investment.Ā 

It is a reasonable excuse to leave home to buy a property (and has been through lockdown), and this was recently extended to purchasing an investment – even where crossing LGAs is required.

In a nutshell, don’t let what youĀ thinkĀ about the market get in the way of reality. If buying or selling is on the horizon, we can make it happen – withoutĀ the worry of how it’ll work out!
