1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,559 Speaker 1: Auckland Council has released the property valuations for Auckland City 2 00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:06,920 Speaker 1: been a bit delayed. Not pretty. Valuations are down nine 3 00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:09,840 Speaker 1: percent on average. Some properties are down significantly more. Barford 4 00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:12,000 Speaker 1: and Thompson's Rawdon. Christie's with us at Rawdon. 5 00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:14,400 Speaker 2: Hello, how are you, Hannah? 6 00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:16,640 Speaker 1: You good, very well. It's lovely to talk to you again. 7 00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:19,200 Speaker 1: Rauden listening you had any phone calls from upset homeowners 8 00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:19,560 Speaker 1: about this. 9 00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:26,440 Speaker 2: I've had conversations with concerned homeowners, but I think all 10 00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 2: vendors at the moment have been a little bit concerned. 11 00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:31,200 Speaker 2: This is just another little bit of a body blow. 12 00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 2: And I'm trying to sort of make people realize that 13 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:37,720 Speaker 2: both both vendors and buyers that these counts of valuations 14 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:42,560 Speaker 2: really should be by and large just ignore them because 15 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:44,920 Speaker 2: they are not a property valuation. But it's very hard 16 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:47,960 Speaker 2: to tell people that because people do still look at 17 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 2: council valuations and think they give you and some sort 18 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:52,479 Speaker 2: of indication on property value. 19 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, do you reckon it's going to have any impact 20 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 1: on deals or wrong? Whether people want to list their 21 00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:57,720 Speaker 1: houses at the moment. 22 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 2: I've had conversation with buyers today who are putting forward 23 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,319 Speaker 2: offers and are making it very clear that they think 24 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 2: their offer is particularly good given the fact that counsel 25 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:13,320 Speaker 2: values have dropped today. And that's a really significant thing 26 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:17,559 Speaker 2: because that they are just saying, I would potentially reconsider 27 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:21,319 Speaker 2: the offer I'm putting forward were it at a worthy 28 00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 2: council evaluation to have dropped by a certain amount. Now, 29 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 2: whether that's buyers just because buyers do hold all the 30 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:30,399 Speaker 2: cards at the moment to an extent, whether that's just 31 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 2: them having yet another arrow in their in their in 32 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 2: the bow as such to be able to beat prices down, 33 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 2: I'm not sure. But that conversation has been had several 34 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 2: times today. 35 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 1: Have you had a look at how much your house 36 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 1: went down? 37 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 2: I haven't looked. I don't want to, because that's the reality, 38 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 2: is that we're just going to have a whole heap 39 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 2: of really depressed people because we all think, we all 40 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 2: think we're poorer now, which is not true. 41 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,560 Speaker 1: No, it's all in there. It's completely irrational. Rud and 42 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 1: I really appreciate it. Thanks for sitting it straight, Rud 43 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 1: and Christy real Estate Edge and I'll tell you, well, 44 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 1: I would hate to be in retail this weekend.
