we've had mmr for about 6 weeks and it seems to be having an impact
these are the stages in which i see the different types of buyers reacting:
stage 1- people buying with a mortgage can't get the credit so get priced out
minimal impact on prices as
stage 2- bomad types have their parents to cover the shortfall so continue to pay high asking prices
once they hit the limit
stage 3- cash buyers carry the market as credit is not an issue to them
lack of effective demand puts downward pressure on prices until
stage 4- foreign investors realise whats going on and then the party really gets going
i believe we're currently at late stage 2/early stage 3
once price falls show up on the stats things will really get interesting
any thoughts/opinions?
