It’s boom. It’s gloom. It’s boom. It’s gloom. It’s…

It’s a tale of two markets. 

  1. The Top.
  2. The Rest.

Where we live it’s over the top. Where the pundits wander, it’s not — and that’s all many of them think is happening.

The Top?

Three whoppers in a week says boom, boom, boom. All Toorak. All Locals.

$11k/sq m? Sold!

The know-its who are telling you there’s just one big market are missing huge chunks of what really matters. They’re just not in that loop.

What goes around here is behind closed doors.

And…

It’s not all 3142

Land. The litmus test of real estate.

82 Marine Parade, Elwood.

A tiny block, listed at $3,080,00. It sold for $4,265,000.

Another price outwitting the pundits.

CAV vs The Under-Quoters. Who won?

Put your money on Wet Lettuce.

 

 

Wait. Just wait.

In the lower reaches, there’s still little choice around. Cheque-books (bank Xfers?) are waving but there’s little waving back

October? At least it will be warmer

Hot. Hot. Hot.

Apartments with the lot in SY, trophies in Toorak (see above), family living in Malvern, more trophies around Red Hill.

Brighton? Snore on.

Nobody home?

Client rings agent. Voicemail.

Rings again. More.

And more.

And it’s more than one agent.

1/2% off! Be quick!

It wasn’t selling at $18m.

Now it’s on special at $17.8m.

Door buster!

Vale, Rollo Moore

Professionally, Rollo, you put the Mornington Peninsula on the map. Personally you were a true gentleman: bright, truthful, effervescent and a delight to deal with.

Farewell, Rollo, we miss you.
