Question for real estate agents: Why do so many of you push auction? by mitso in AusProperty

[–]narcan -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That’s not the reason. The reason is it puts a timeline on the sale for the vendor. Then if it doesn’t sell at auction it’s concrete evidence that it needs it be priced lower.

Is this life all about buying a property in this country? by bigroundgift in AusFinance

[–]narcan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, no ? You decide if it’s worth that much. If you’re happy where you’re living and it’s free then I guess don’t buy a house.

Why are these houses so freaking cold ?!?! by Ok_loop in australia

[–]narcan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, without a doubt the default specs should be better from these houses.

But the comments here always seem to be under the impression it’s all the fault of property developers.

My point is people can (and do) upgrade their homes to be better specced when it comes to energy efficiency.

But yes I agree average homebuyers are idiots when it comes to most things, but that’s where a portion the issue is.

I don’t understand what capacity you’re dealing with builders then. The whole idea is the build a house based on your requirements. It’s like saying they pick how many rooms it is or the color of the walls. You get to decide these things when building. You can add double glazing, additional insulation, low e glass, maximise window orientation etc.
