It's not surprising Aucklanders are sitting on the fence, waiting for a sign that will tell them now is the time to sell or buy a home.
A tougher, more complex market requires a greater level of understanding than ever before. And as commentators, some with thinly veiled agendas, try to shine light on the issues, people have become confused. And so they sit.
To demystify the real estate market, we're running a series of articles that will help you make informed decisions about buying and selling property this summer.
In the first article, Which way is the market going?, real estate writer Vicki Holder will explain how the real estate market works, the factors that influence it and where it is headed.
Subsequent stories will discuss marketing campaigns, auctions and how to choose an agent.
Articles in this series will be published each Saturday for 4 weeks, beginning November 18.
