I see this all the time. People buying property based on emotion.
Yes, it might be a property you really want, but emotions play a big role in negotiations. Fear of missing out sets in, the numbers get ignored, and buyers often overpay simply because they are personally invested and not looking at the data.
What is even more eye opening is reviewing property performance twelve months after purchase.
The difference between emotional buying and data driven buying is significant.
Example one:
A client purchased an investment property in an established Melbourne suburb without using property reports or a buyers agent for due diligence. The property required significant work and after twelve months the value has barely moved. Purchase price was $1,080,000 and the property is still worth around the same today.
Example two:
A client used our buyers agent service and purchased an investment property in Brisbane in the mid $700,000s. Within seven months the property experienced approximately $65,000 in capital growth, close to ten percent in under a year.
So the real question is this.
Is it worth paying for a service that removes emotion, runs the numbers properly, and focuses on performance and market upside?
It may not be for everyone, but I know which side I would rather be on.
