An overlap of the two is where the best decisions come from. Knowledge is the most important key to getting a great result.
We use data programs such as RPData, Stash Property, and Real Estate to gather as much data as possible. Data is nothing without interpretation, so each property goes through a detailed write-up to break down the data and what it means for you.
Data isn’t the whole picture — it can sometimes be misleading, or used to tell a certain narrative. For example, Bar Beach has a low sales volume, so if one or two highly expensive properties sell in a year, it could show a huge spike in price growth. Local understanding applies context to the data, to make sure our clients aren’t misled.
Data will tell you what properties sold for, but it won’t tell you why. If you’re using a property as a sale comparable but didn’t know about the $50k worth of roof work, you’re under-appraising the property you’re investigating, and risking missing out.
We stay across all the sales in the markets we operate in, to make sure our clients are working with the best information.
