Auction action hits Invercargill

Auction action hits Invercargill

Going, going, gone…. But here to stay! hoamz Southland have made an indelible impression on the Invercargill real estate market in just their first month and a half of operation. Contracts are into double figures already, significantly surpassing sales expectations for the newly-established Invercargill chapter of the company.

Principal Stephen Hebbend commented ‘We’re really delighted with the response from both buyers and sellers to the new brand. It’s always a risk starting a new business, particularly in a challenging market such as this one, but the overwhelmingly positive way in which hoamz has been received has exceeded even our expectations. So thanks Southland.’

When questioned on what makes hoamz so different the answers come readily; the genuine team approach, the cutting-edge website and agent software systems, the no-stone-unturned approach to marketing and the wealth of experience and dedication from the agents and support staff.

Adding to the sales figures have been successful auction campaigns. Drawing on years of experience of auctions in the competitive Queenstown market and a highly-trained auctioneer, Brendan Quill, hoamz have already conducted two auction campaigns culminating in sales.

Queried on their immediate auction success, Quill replies ‘It’s an area of the market that requires a specialist to get it right. There’s a lot of strategy involved in auctions when compared to a private treaty sale. It’s all about putting qualified buyers in touch with qualified sellers in the most transparent way possible to achieve what’s genuinely the best price the market is willing to pay’. So with a plethora of sales already, competition’s hotting up for the monthly hoamz draw for a luxury weekend in Queenstown.
