Episode 202 - Is Your Agent Giving You Cruel Optimism?
Cruel optimism could be costing you thousands. In this episode, we unpack a growing issue in the Auckland property market — agents and vendors clinging to unrealistic price expectations instead of facing the facts. With over 14,000 properties on the market and only a fraction selling each month, optimism alone won’t get your home sold. The truth isn’t always comfortable but it allows you to make clear, confident business decisions. If you’re buying or selling property in New Zealand, this is a conversation you need to hear.
