24.01.2022 Good morning to you all! I was thinking about my vendors and buyers over the weekend and to people I have met recently that are thinking about selling their homes. I wanted to share with you my thoughts on the Geelong real estate market and how I believe it is still vibrant and still a good time to sell or buy. This morning I came across an article which backs exactly what I am experiencing. It stated; "The realestate.com.au data reflects a 58 per cent increase in demand... for regional Victorian properties in the past year nearly four times the growth of metro demand. Suburbs in Geelong and areas extending down the Great Ocean Road dominated Victoria’s top 10 most in-demand regional areas a result chief economist Nerida Conisbee said was no surprise." Compelling and positive news! So if you are thinking of selling your home in the next few months, why not message me or call me on 0418 521 221. Have a great week!

24.01.2022 I spoke to the Geelong Advertiser about my recent benchmark sale of 33 Boundary Road, Newcomb. Such a great result all round for my lovely vendors and buyers! See the property: https://bit.ly/35LF8pZ

24.01.2022 When it comes to selling your house and searching for a new home, it can be an emotional whirlwind. Depending on your situation, emotions can include excitement about the new chapter, stress of the buyers chain, and a nostalgic feeling about the memories you made in your old home.

23.01.2022 Breaking News - Victorian State Budget Tax Relief for Victorian Homebuyers (I know this is a long post, but it has extremely important and good news for everyone!)... If you’re in the market for a new property, up to 50 per cent of stamp duty on eligible homes will be waived for the rest of the financial year. It’s part of a bid to lure Victorians back into the property market. The support waives up to 50% on stamp duty for new homes and 25% for existing homes valued at up to $1 million for contracts entered into from Wednesday, Nov 25 until June 30 next year. Home buyers will also be able to gain a foothold into the market sooner with lower deposits, thanks to a $500 million Victorian Homebuyer Fund. Treechangers will also get some relief, with the extension of the first home owner grant for people buying or building a new home in regional Victoria. The $20,000 grant has been extended to apply to contracts signed up to June 30 next year. This is double the $10,000 grant for first home buyers in metropolitan Melbourne. The time to sell or buy a property is NOW. Contact me today if you are looking to sell your home or if you are in the market to buy. 0418 521 221 [email protected] #mcgrathestateagents

23.01.2022 Happy International Dogs Day! I thought I would share some meaningful thoughts from our fur baby Willis, who always has a lot to think. #loveourfurbabies #unconditionallove #mcgrathestateagents #happyinternationaldogsday @willistheboxerdog

22.01.2022 Throwing my hat into the centre circle! I know it's not normally done this way. Agents, labels, production companies all put forward their best artist to sing A...dvance Australia Fair for the Grand Final, but I'm pitching myself to you, the public, to help me reach my dream of belting out our Nation Anthem on that special one day in Septe ..... October! Here's my platform: - It's now officially at the GABBA, in Queensland, my home state (Although I'm still a Victorian at heart, which is important!) - I'm more than qualified to sing our Anthem with nearly 30 years experience and over 300 live performances of this song, including events for 3 Prime Ministers, Olympic and Commonwealth Games ceremonies and the final of the AUS v ENG One Day International Cricket match at the MCG in front of a full house. - I'm not pushing an upcoming CD, Tour or Production, I'm just an artist wanting to help lead the singing of our National Anthem that will inspire others to sing out with pride, to inspire the players and coaches of both teams (whoever they may be) and help create that moment, on the last note just before the siren, where the hairs stand up on your neck and the crowd start to roar in anticipation of the first bounce. - Most importantly, I love Football. I'm a proud member and supporter of The Saints (long suffering), but I have also supported other clubs over the years and performed for wonderful causes like the E.J Whitten Foundation, the Robert Rose Foundation and in this special but sad time, I'd love to represent the Neil Sachse Foundation, and honour his legacy through my performance. Here are 2 links to various performances of mine singing the Australian National Anthem. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2tuehNm2Y8&t=1s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uk3HldxqVRQ If you would like to help my cause, please like and share my post, especially if you personally know Gil . Let me do you all proud and help make this years AFL Anthem a special one to remember! www.timmccallum.com.au St Kilda Football Club Geelong Cats Western Bulldogs Collingwood Football Club AFL Annastacia Palaszczuk MP TODAY

07.01.2022 When’s the best time to put my house on the market? A frequently asked question I thought I would answer today. I can find buyers for a good property at any time of the year. However, if your home has seasonal appeal, such as beach access in summer or a beautiful garden in spring, it’s worth waiting for those months. Contact me so we can determine if your house is ready to sell, or if there are some key updates you can do to make it happen this year.... 0418 521 221 [email protected] #mcgrathestateagents #stayinformed #realestateanswers
